About this property
Set in peaceful countryside, this lovely cottage converted from a traditional Devon linhay is a wonderful place for walking a spectacular area of Dartmoor. The quality fabrics, carefully chosen colours and original paintings create a haven which is relaxing and characterful. On the ground floor the large open plan living area is a sociable space, leading through French windows to the garden patio. The two bedrooms upstairs are restful, with beams and views of fields from the pretty double. Surrounded by a granite wall, the garden is a welcoming space to sit out, or you can wander further along a track to a meadow and stream where dragonflies dart. A friendly, traditional Devon inn is just over a mile away, or you can go a little further to the bustling small towns of Chagford or Okehampton, which offer a choice of inns, interesting shops and eateries. This is a brilliant base for walking Dartmoor and the ancient Mariners Way. Note: This property can be booked with Ref: 982185, together they sleep 8.
A picturesque town at the northern point of Dartmoor National Park in Devon, Chagford is small in size but is packed with amenities and things to do. There is a wide range of shops as well as four pubs. Chagford also has more active facilities such as public tennis court and an open-air swimming pool to enjoy at your leisure.

Loved everything about this property, the secluded garden for the dogs was awesome, lots of birds in the garden so I put a feeder out and more came , bird watchers delight , it was warm , well equipped, milk and cake a bonus , the only thing I missed from home was a set of kitchen tongs , but that's just what I use a lot of , loved having the option of a bath or shower too , if it wasn't such a long drive I would be back again in September, thanks again fo letting me , steve , penny and oli (dogs) have your property x

Our second visit to the property and we highly recommend it to those wanting somewhere as a base to explore Devon and Cornwall. The secure garden for our dog was great and a walk to your very own small lake is an asset. The provision of a lemon drizzle cake on arrival was a bonus as was the pint of milk in the fridge! There is a local pub (The Post Inn) which provides good food and drinks at a reasonable price. Full credit to the owner and Lynne who looks after it to make it a great holiday stay.
