This property is accessed via a single track road, which brings guests to the wonderfully rural property, where it is one of two on the owner s farmland. Surrounded by the rugged beauty of Dartmoor National Park, guests can leave the property and immediately join the miles of scenic walks, cycle routes and bridleways. In complete contrast to Dartmoor, the elegant seaside resorts of the English Riviera, with its warm micro climate, azure seas, and sandy beaches, is just twenty miles. Other attractions in the area include Paignton Zoo, the Living Coasts Aquarium in Torquay, and the ancient network of caves at Kents Cavern.

From here, a door leads to the property s cosy flag stoned lounge, which has as its focal point, a stunning inglenook fireplace, which now houses the warming wood burner.
