1 Bed Cottage in Tavistock

About this property

Nestled in a peaceful hamlet at the foot of Dartmoor's White Tor, and surrounded by wild moorland and rolling hills, this charming countryside escape provides a tranquil retreat for couples or solo travellers. Set off on scenic walks across open countryside from your front door or hop on your bikes and join the Devon Cycle Network less than 1 mile away for a ride towards Plymouth.

The two-storey property is bright and spacious, with a welcoming kitchen/diner downstairs. Wooden accents, pretty tiles and crisp white walls make for a stylish appearance. Two steps lead up to a cosy lounge complete with Smart TV - fabulous for romantic film nights à deux. Upstairs, a mezzanine bedroom with a four-poster super-king-size bed awaits tired adventurers, alongside a stylish shower room plus a snug reading nook with a comfy sofa overlooking the living space below. Outside, make the most of the small seating area for al fresco coffees, or unwind in the shared 1-acre garden complete with outdoor furniture. There's off-road parking for one car and a covered area where you can safely store your bikes.

Beyond the garden gate, explore the dramatic scenery of the surrounding Dartmoor National Park, perhaps checking out the waterfalls and woodland walks at Lydford Gorge (9.5 miles). While it feels blissfully remote, the bustling town of Tavistock is just 4 miles away - lovely for a wander through the farmers' market, a leisurely coffee or a browse in the independent shops. Or you could visit Buckland Abbey (10 miles) and Saltram's grand 18th-century estate (18.5 miles).
