Sunset View - Millhayes

This idyllic retreat boasts a quiet setting overlooking a lake in the beautiful Devon countryside. The property sleeps six guests and makes a fantastic rural bolthole for both families and groups of friends seeking peace and tranquillity, with endless walks from your front door. For shopping and eating out journey to the vibrant city of Exeter (14 miles), or for a day at the beach you’ll be near Exmouth (20 miles). In the evenings, unwind with a spot of fishing on the onsite lakes or a dip in your private hot tub.

The waterside wooden lodge sits within 23 acres of private grounds. The property has a sociable, open-plan layout and features beautiful, wood-clad walls and a fabulous vaulted ceiling. Create delicious dishes in the stylish kitchen area to share at the large dining table, before sinking into the plush corner sofa to watch the Smart TV in the glow of the cosy wood burner. On a summer’s day, throw open the glass doors to the terrace for indoor/outdoor living. The property has three tastefully decorated bedrooms, one of which has an en-suite shower room. Two of the bedrooms also enjoy direct access to the terrace and, completing the accommodation, is a contemporary bathroom. Outside, the covered terrace is the perfect place to soak in your breathtaking surroundings. Share family BBQs overlooking the water, followed by a relaxing soak in your private hot tub. Guests are also welcome to explore the extensive, wildlife-rich grounds and fish on one of the onsite lakes.
