Head to this delightful cottage in Sheldon, 6miles from Honiton, to discover the beauty of the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on long dog walks. Up to 12 guests and two canine companions can stay at this six-bedroom stone property, which has a hot tub, wood burner and access to a shared games room. Tire out furry legs on hikes through stunning scenery or spend time at home throwing balls for your pals in the exercise paddock.
Enter the appealing property to find a clever marriage of original character and contemporary features. Bring your ecstatic pups into the kitchen/diner, where there is ample space for them to pad about while they wait patiently for their dinner. Head through to the lounge to light the wood burner, watch TV or open the patio doors so your furry friends can frolic outside. You’ll also find two bedrooms and a family bathroom on the ground floor. Climb the stairs to find another bathroom and four more bedrooms, including one with an en-suite bathroom. Relax in your private garden: fire up the hot tub, sizzle supper on the BBQ and watch your happy hounds. Let the kids wander over to the games room, pop doggy towels in the washing machine and dryer in the shared utility room and take your delighted dogs to bound in the paddock with 7 acres to explore. There is ample parking.
Head out into the Blackdown Hills for long rambles through glorious scenery. Stretch furry legs by walking 3 miles to Dunkeswell to see the ruins of a 13th-century Cistercian abbey. Drive 6 miles to the edge of the East Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, with its woodland, heathland and cliffs. Alternatively, venture 19 miles to Seaton Bay on the Jurassic Coast, where happy hounds can race along the beach all year round.
