The Milk Churn

Nestled deep in the heart of the tranquil countryside of north Devon, The Milk Churn is a delightful rural getaway where you can totally relax and re-charge in blissful surroundings.

Surrounded by miles of countryside and with easy access to the North Devon Link Road, this idyll is the perfect getaway for a family or couples looking for a Devonshire escape, with both Exmoor and the dramatic north coast of Devon only a short car journey away.

The long, tree-lined drive and surrounding green pastures will make you feel immersed in the tranquil countryside as you arrive at The Milk Churn. Pull up to the handy parking and wander over to the charming cottage awaiting you. Open plan living greets you over the threshold where the door leads into the well-equipped kitchen and the all-important dishwasher so no squabbling over the washing up here! The kitchen/dining area leads into the sitting-area with comfy sofas and a characterful dresser full of board games and handy information about local attractions. A wood-burner will keep you toasty during cooler months making The Milk Churn an ideal year-round destination.

Upstairs, to the first floor and you will be greeted by two pretty bedrooms and a bathroom. The double bedroom has a lovely outlook. A dressing table and armchair complete this room, the perfect quiet spot for a holiday read! The twin room is perfect for either children or adults. Enjoy a long blissful soak or a quick refreshing shower after a day's adventures.

Outside you cannot fail to immerse yourself in nature, with beautiful views over the surrounding countryside with Dartmoor even visible in the distance. Al fresco dining here is a must from dawn until dusk! The patio itself is fenced, ideal for the family dog, but please do keep an eye on them as escapologists always find a way.

The Cockerham Estate has 15 acres of enchanting countryside with a collection of four secluded cottages, all private and offering the very best of rural living. The owners live on-site but will always respect your privacy. If you are feeling energetic a tennis court is available (shared with the other cottages).

A getaway to The Milk Churn will leave you feeling relaxed and re-charged.
