Nestled in a private location with pretty countryside views, you'll find this attractive and stylish lodge, offering a harmonious setting for some quality rest and relaxation. A large wraparound decking area provides the perfect spot to sit, watching the local wildlife over breakfast whilst you plan your day's activities. Its location provides easy access to some of the beautiful surrounding beaches, coastline and attractions, making it the ideal base to explore South Devon.

One of two attractive lodges on-site, this property is accessed by a few steps leading up to decking where you then enter into a pretty open-plan living area. Chic in design, this space is furnished to a high standard with lovely views of the decking and countryside beyond. Neutral tones throughout provide a peaceful space to sit back and relax after a long day exploring. Enjoy a glass of wine on the decking whilst dinner is being prepared, listening to the sounds of the local wildlife as they keep you company. The two bedrooms are light and airy and offer a restful sanctuary at the end of the day.

Sidmouth (7 miles) is a pretty seaside town situated on South Devon's spectacular Jurassic Coast and is a popular destination to many, as it hosts an array of sights to see and things to do.

The historic city of Exeter (13.5 miles) is located on the River Exe and is renowned for its thriving and friendly atmosphere.
