Experience the tranquillity of the Devon countryside with a stay in this welcoming four-bedroom holiday cottage.

It is set within picturesque landscaped gardens and boasts period features, as well as access to a lake. Inside, the property offers a boutique country farmhouse aesthetic, with wood-panelled walls and exposed beams.

There's a library offering a second snug-style lounge, with a TV, leather armchairs and a sofa, and another cosy wood burner. At the centre of the property, you'll find a well-equipped farmhouse-style kitchen with a traditional island and flagstone floors, plus an adjoining utility room. In the light-filled conservatory, take in magnificent views across the lake and Blackdown Hills, and enjoy meals in the dining room, where there is also an original brick bread oven in an inglenook fireplace. Upstairs, the private wing above the library features a master king-size bedroom with a TV and en-suite bathroom, plus a single bed behind the chimney breast. There are also two further king-size bedrooms up a second set of stairs, one with an extra single bed, plus a double room with an en-suite shower room. The family bathroom is on this level.

Thank you for enabling a perfect family reunion at Hutchinghayes Farmhouse. Your house and gardens are magical. Everyone - from ages 3 to 80! - was delighted. The house was perfectly appointed: we wanted for nothing. The beds and pillows were extremely comfortable, and the sheets immaculately ironed (please extend our thanks to the lovely Hazel). ARead morell was in great taste, including the fabulous collection of books that truly can suit every. The internet was also surprisingly fast and reliable. As a keen gardener, I was of course delighted to be able to stroll in your beautiful gardens and to admire the wisteria, roses, climbing hydrangeas that grace the buildings, as well as to walk about the ponds. My heart skipped a beat at the magical boathouse. The wider area is also stunning. Particular highlights were the Pig at Combe in Gittisham, Branscombe, the cliff walks on the Golden Cap, the drive to the Five Bells and, of course, Dartmoor National Park. We stopped at Stourhead along the way, which I would recommend to anyone coming from the East. Thank you again for your warm welcome, flexibility and responsiveness throughout. With a bit of luck, we will return. In the meantime, we will let people know what a wonderful place you have created. Best, Marie-Claude and Sherman Hide

Lovely well equipped house. We visited for a week in April with 6 adults, 2 young children and 2 dogs. The extensive grounds allowed for exercising the dogs and were very attractive. The house was warm and furnished to a high standard with plenty of space in the communal rooms. We made good use of the games room and conservatory. The owner is helpfRead moreul and on hand if required. Having 2 small children dictated how we spent our time. We visited the donkey sanctuary, free and much better than expected. Pecorama, half price this year, good train ride and playground. Seaton Tram way and wetlands, excellent, with a visit to Seaton for fish and chip lunch. Lyme Regis beach and fossil hunting, check the tides. We would highly recommend Otter farm and ice cream just a few mins drive away.. Hide

We had a lovely stay, the property is gorgeous and has a great kitchen and conservatory, lovely little study and games room. The gardens in particular were immaculate and really spectacular - such a treat for us and our dogs. We would definitely recommend this property.
