Set within the picturesque Dartmoor National Park, this charming traditional property has been lovingly renovated to create spacious and family-friendly accommodation for 12. Located on Dartmoor’s western edge, it is ideally placed for exploring the nearby Whitelady Waterfall, the park’s rugged tors and the rest of Devon. After a busy day of adventuring, return to this cosy cottage to relax in front of the roaring wood burner, entertain in the stunning country kitchen or enjoy a long soak in the private hot tub.
Inside, this historic home has been sympathetically updated to introduce fresh, contemporary decor and appliances while retaining oak beams, inglenook fireplaces and exposed stonework. Ideal for entertaining, the spacious farmhouse kitchen boasts both an Aga and double electric oven together with a sociable breakfast bar. Once prepared, enjoy family feasts at the large table in the dining room before hunkering down beside a wood burner in one of the two inviting lounges. Each of the six bedrooms has been individually and tastefully decorated, five of which boast TVs. Stepping outside, the large garden is perfectly equipped for family fun, with a croquet area and fire pit with BBQ grill. There is a patio area for al fresco dining and a hot tub for soothing aching muscles after a long walk.
