A charming single-storey cottage in an idyllic rural setting just 3 miles from Barnstaple. Perfect for families or groups of friends, the dog-friendly cottage boasts an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, three versatile bedrooms and access to a host of shared facilities including an indoor heated swimming pool and games room.
This stone cottage is located at the end of a private no-through lane with awe-inspiring views down a wooded valley towards the River Taw, Dartmoor and beyond. It has a warm and welcoming ambience thanks to its warm rustic colour palette and soft furnishings. The characterful open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, with its vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and French doors opening into the enclosed garden, is a lovely place to unwind after a day in the countryside. A family bathroom stands nearby, as do a welcoming double bedroom, a twin bedroom and a bunk bedroom. A shared courtyard garden unravels only a few paw prints away from the cottage’s shared facilities, including an 11m indoor heated swimming pool, a children’s play area and an indoor games room. Elsewhere, dogs will love exploring the 8 acres of lawns and fields near the cottage.
The footpaths surrounding the cottage lead through fields and woodlands, the perfect places to enjoy long walks with the dogs. Barnstaple (3 miles) is loaded with dog-friendly pubs and cafes, while the shores of Croyde, Saunton Sands and Woolacombe (all 13 miles) are hugely popular with surfers. Dogs are often welcome aboard the sea safaris that leave Ilfracombe (11 miles) a town known for its love of canine visitors. Exmoor National Park, an area of astonishing beauty, lies 11 miles away.
