  • Beautiful lakeside lodge offers the perfect romantic rural retreat set in beautiful gardens
  • One mile from the busy market town of South Molton and its range of shops, pubs and restaurants
  • Close to Exmoor National Park where wonderful walks and breath-taking scenery can be discovered
Property code: OC-CHEVI

One of four properties on this unique lakeside complex, this cabin is the perfect bolthole for couples wishing to explore the best of North Devon. Located 1 mile from the heart of South Molton, it’s within easy reach of pubs, restaurants and markets, although its incredibly tranquil setting will leave you feeling miles from anywhere.

Set away from the main farmhouse, the cabin is open-plan and spacious, decorated tastefully to provide a homely feel. Enjoy a meal with a view in the French window before retreating to the lounge area, where you can relax beside the wood burner on chilly evenings. In the summer months though, the large patio windows can be opened to create an al fresco feel, with the subtle scent of fresh country air filling the room. Outside on the patio, you’ll find a BBQ and sun loungers - a great spot for soaking up the peace and quiet.

There is an ornamental lake with lakeside garden and a woodland garden which both make for an idyllic sunset walk. For a more strenuous hike though, take in the moorland views on Exmoor National Park. Lynton and Lynmouth (22 miles) and the sandy beach at Saunton (20.5 miles) are also nearby.

  • 1 king-size bedroom
  • 1 en-suite bathroom with separate shower cubicle
  • Small ornamental lake with lakeside garden and woodland garden in owner’s grounds which guests are free to explore
  • Oven, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine
  • Smart TV 
  • Oil-fired central heating included
  • Wood burner with logs included
  • Outside patio with table, chairs, BBQ and sun loungers
  • Shed to store boots, shoes and outdoor clothes
  • Shops, pubs and restaurants located 1 mile away
  • Ample parking outside the lodge
  • Please note, there is no access to fishing on the lakes when booking this lodge
  • This property will be decorated for Christmas
  • Arrival: 17:00 onwards
  • Departure: before 10:00
  • Sorry, no dogs allowed

This was our third stay at Cherry View, and it was just as relaxing as our last two stays. Immaculately clean, really well equipped. It is also good to see the replacement of things in the lodge as we stay again.

TV too small & limited freeview channels Guests expect, now days, upto date large smart TV's with ability to stream their favourite apps. The very old fridge/freezer should be replaced due to lack of space necessary for a week"s stay. The long piled rugs in the living room & bedroom looked dirty & grotty. Overall the property was beginning to tiredRead more & dated. Customers have much higher expectations when they book a vacation. Hide

We enjoyed a wonderful week , we have been having holidays in cottages over the last 60years and we felt this was the most comfortable we've stayed in . The owner's were helpful and made us feel very welcome. The gardens were a joy to explore with many resting places and stunning views and plants. Thank you Mary&Clive

Just spent a wonderful week here & thoroughly enjoyed every minute. The lodge was very comfortable and clean with everything you needed. Watching the wildlife was great. We had loads of birds on the feeders, a moorhen who visited regularly & a pheasant. We also caught some hedgehogs on our trail cam. What more could you ask for

Myself and my partner absolutely loved staying here. It was so quiet and relaxing , feeling very remote but only a 3 minute drive into town. It was a lovely touch having an outbuilding with a store of logs to use in the log burner. The lodge is very cosy and comfortable and we will definitely return.
