  • Beautiful semi-detached property in an idyllic Devon location with accommodation all on one-level
  • Walkers will be in their element with the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty close by
  • Visit National Trust Killerton House, and explore the world-famous Jurassic Coast and cathedral city of Exeter
Property code: OC-62205

Situated within the Blackdown Hills AONB with steep ridges, valleys and picturesque villages all around, this pretty property promises a truly romantic escape to guests. Quaint and welcoming with lots of rustic charm, this cottage is an opportunity to experience coast, country and city life. The stunning Jurassic Coast, including seaside resort Lyme Regis, is just 21.5 miles away, while bustling cathedral city Exeter (20.5 miles) is ideal for shopping. Make it your own special holiday with a stay here.

You’ll find your own way to unwind here. The interiors embrace the age of the cottage, with exposed beams, original stone and brickwork dotted throughout. Snuggle up on the sofa in the lounge area of the open-plan living space, watching your favourite show on TV as the wood burner crackles in the background. Slip between the sheets in the cosy bedroom among fresh, neutral tones; wake up refreshed in the morning and head to the enclosed patio with your coffee to watch the day unfold.

Take long walks along the South West Coast Path from Sidmouth (17.5 miles), stopping at Chit Rocks and Jacobs Ladder and heading down to Budleigh Salterton (6.5 miles). If you’re more of a wanderer than a rambler, stroll the gardens of Escot House (10 miles) or the National Trust’s Killerton (12 miles). Tiverton Museum (17 miles) has 15 galleries that cover different aspects of Mid Devon life and also runs a lively programme of exhibitions and events, so check before you visit to see what’s on.

This cottage can be booked with Wagtail Lodge 85816 with the same owners in the same location.

I stayed for 2.5 weeks after selling a house, and it was the most lovely place to stay. Wren Cottage at Westcott Farm was in an idyllic country setting overlooking fields. The cottage was very well equipped and warm. The bed was the most comfortable I've been in. There are lovely walks in the field opposite and in the country lanes. The hosts ImogeRead moren and Justin were super friendly and helpful - always available if needed. I would recommend Westcott Farm for a holiday. Really accessible too. Hide
