A picturesque mile from the heart of South Molton in the North Devon countryside, this lodge-style property offers peace and tranquillity in abundance, while still being close to amenities. You’ll find the lodge nestled alongside idyllic lakes, giving direct access to incredible sunset walks and picnic spots.

Arranged on a single storey, the property offers attractive accommodation that’s perfect for two and has been finished with contemporary styling. The living area is open-plan and spacious, with the incredible lake view from the window being the main feature. Comfortable chairs and the sofa are arranged to face the window, so you can enjoy the scenery while curled up with a good book or enjoying your morning coffee. Of course, you could enjoy this on your private seating area, which you’ll find through the king-sized bedroom’s patio doors.

In South Molton, you’ll find everything you need, from a supermarket, pubs and restaurants, to a weekly market and independent shops. The larger market town of Barnstaple is within easy reach (12 miles), with several popular eateries and bars, making it a great choice for a night out. To enjoy the best of the countryside though, head to Exmoor National Park (5.5 miles) and enjoy the scenic walking routes. And of course, no visit to Devon is complete without a beach trip; discover the sandy beaches of Saunton Sands (20 miles) and Croyde (23 miles).

Lake View, once again, fully met our requirements of a staycation in a quiet, idyllic rural location but close enough to all local amenities and facilities! As a returning visitor over 5 years, this is recommendation in itself to stay at Furzebray Lakes where the owners made us feel welcome throughout.
