Granary Cottage

Description

Set close to the village of Swimbridge in North Devon, Mill Court is surrounded by rolling green hills and peaceful open countryside. These charming stone barn conversions offer a tranquil yet convenient base from which to explore the area. On the outskirts of Exmoor, visitors will enjoy the many opportunities to explore the National Park and perhaps try some fishing, cycling and horse riding. For those wishing to head to the coast, the golden sands and surfing beaches of Saunton and Croyde are a 30 minute trip. Heading up the Atlantic Highway, the charming fishing villages of Instow and Appledore are well worth exploring. For a little retail therapy the many shops, cafes and restaurants in the market town of Barnstaple are within 4 miles drive. From Barnstaple the Tarka Line train wends its way through glorious rural scenery to the city of Exeter. One of just two properties overlooking a quiet courtyard, Granary Cottage is  furnished in a welcoming country-house style. The attractive first floor lounge has a feature fireplace and beamed ceiling and the fully-fitted kitchen also has many original features. There are two pretty bedrooms and a good-sized bathroom. Outside a private lawned garden has a patio with garden furniture, an ideal place to contemplate the peaceful valley and river views. A characterful village inn is handily located 300 yards away and there are plenty of countryside walks from the doorstep.
