Surrounded by the unspoilt rural landscape of north Devon and just 10 miles inland from the dramatic coastline with its long sandy beaches and rugged cliffs, The Cottage could not be in a more tranquil location. This lovely detached stone property has a fully enclosed garden which is perfect for al fresco dining.

The accommodation offers a cosy traditional beamed sitting-room with an inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove – making this an excellent place to choose whatever the time of year – a separate dining-room in addition to the table in the kitchen, a very well-equipped kitchen with a warming farmhouse-style Rayburn cooker and a further kitchen/utility-area.

The four bedrooms are off a spacious landing and share a very large family bathroom on the first floor as well as a convenient shower-room on the ground floor. Two of the bedrooms have double beds (one a king-size), one has twin beds and there is also a small single room which is ideal for a child (although the standard three-foot bed is fine for an adult too).

Outside, there is a games-room in one of the outbuildings offering table-football and darts, and even has a drinks fridge. There is a summer-house, barbecue and plenty of garden furniture so that you can make the most of this lovely setting and have evening drinks looking across the fields and along the valley. Private off-road parking is in the driveway, the entrance to which has a five-bar wooden gate so this area is also safely enclosed.
