Property code: OC-C32989

Tucked away in the peaceful South Devon countryside, this stylish, dog-friendly apartment is a wonderful retreat for two. Set within a grand country house, make the most of the hot tub in your private garden or curl up in front of the contemporary coal-effect fire for cosy nights in.

Inside, the apartment combines classic charm with modern comfort. Accessed via a side entrance and staircase (with a stair lift available if needed), this first-floor accommodation includes a well-equipped kitchen for preparing your favourite meals. Enjoy laid-back dinners in the lounge/diner, before unwinding on the sofa with a glass of wine, a good book, or a film on the Smart TV. The glowing coal-effect fire makes it wonderfully inviting on cooler evenings. When night falls, head to the sumptuous super-king-size bedroom (which can be set up as a twin on request), where soft tones and accents of blue set the scene for a good night’s sleep. A sleek shower room completes the internal layout. Step outside and soak up the sunshine in your own private, lawned garden – the perfect spot for al fresco dining, morning coffee, or simply relaxing while your four-legged friend explores. For the ultimate treat, sink into the hot tub and let the bubbles melt your cares away. With private parking for two cars, this apartment is an ideal base for discovering Devon's coast and countryside.

Spend a day roaming Exeter’s cathedral, castle and cobbled streets (5.5 miles), then sample its wide choice of restaurants and cafes, or head to sandy Exmouth (7.5 miles). Travel to Sandy Bay (9 miles), where golden sands await, or follow the South West Coast Path for coastal walks. For wilder landscapes, Dartmoor National Park (15.5 miles) and the rolling Blackdown Hills (15.5 miles) both boast spectacular scenery and a network of hiking trails.

A beautiful property with everything you could need for your stay away from home. It was quiet yet convenient for so many places in and around Exeter. Two very congenial hosts who were available by text or phone if there were any queries or problems. There is a stairlift as shown in the photographs but if this is the only way you can access an upstRead moreairs apartment, I wouldnt rely on it. However if you are able bodied, this is one property to be recommended. Hide

Very good self catering flat. Nicely decorated and furnished with enclosed garden, patio and a hot tub. Lovely and thoughtful welcome pack. Only a couple of planes a day flew over from the airport, not really a problem. Good road links to other parts of Devon.

Lovely place, yes the planes flew over at times but we enjoyed seeing them, and it wasn't that noisy, our Grandson loved the pictures we sent of them, the garden was great as we could let the dogs out safely. We had a lovely welcome pack.
