Tucked away in a tranquil village, this Devon cottage has an enclosed lawn for ball games with Fido and makes an excellent base for families, friends, and their faithful hounds. With the Tarka Trail within walking distance, you'll find endless scenic paths for wagging tails and countryside strolls.
Step inside through the porch into a welcoming living room, complete with soft sofas, a TV and a DVD player, ideal for a cosy movie night after long walks. French doors lead straight to the enclosed patio, so your four-pawed pal can come and go as he pleases. The spacious kitchen/diner has everything you need to whip up hearty meals, and the utility room is perfect for drying muddy paws and storing boots, coats and leads after outdoor adventures. There’s also a convenient ground-floor cloakroom. Upstairs, you’ll find three inviting bedrooms – a spacious king-size, a charming double, and a bunk room for younger guests. The sparkling family bathroom rounds off the accommodation, offering everything you need for a comfortable stay. Outside, the split-level garden is made for enjoying the fresh Devon air. The enclosed patio beside the cottage awaits for BBQs, morning coffees, or evening tipples while your canine companion relaxes nearby. A few steps lead to a grassy lawn, great for games of fetch, a picnic lunch, or simply lazing in the sunshine. There’s also private parking for two cars at the front of the property.
A 7-mile drive brings you to RHS Rosemoor, where you can see beautiful gardens and take gentle walks, with dogs allowed on Mondays, Tuesdays, and Wednesdays. Sniff out the historic harbour town of Bideford (14 miles) with its cobbled streets and local eateries. For sandy paws and sea air, head to Westward Ho! (17 miles) – where golden beaches, swimming, and sunset views await. Westward Ho’s Northam Burrows Country Park boasts wide open spaces for roaming, dune exploring, and ball-chasing. Alternatively, wander around the pretty village of Appledore or savour an ice cream at Instow, with its year-round pet-positive estuary beach, both within 17 miles.
