About this property

... high on the valley-side 3 miles (by car) from Lustleigh, 200 yards of private drive from the lane and about a mile from beautiful reservoirs (woods, rhododendrons, lovely walks, birdwatching, fishing), a very much praised and appreciated place. Attached to the charming owners' farmhouse, four very good and attractive cottages, three made from barns. All share an indoor heated swimming pool (29' x 12' x 4' deep, 29⁰C) with shower/loo/baby changing room and paved terrace (sun loungers). You are welcome on the owners’ 35 acre farm which includes moorland with spectacular Dartmoor tor and ancient stone row; abundant flora and fauna (badgers, deer, foxes, owls) and wonderful Dartmoor views to the sea from most fields. Sheep, lambs (in season), ducks and chickens (egg collecting). Stabling/grazing for horses available. Children's play area (sandpit, slide, swing, climbing frame, Wendy house). Games room (table tennis, half-sized snooker table, pool, football game, children’s games). Paved garden leads to lawn with picnic table, big shady trees, two ponds (unfenced, small children beware), and shrub/woodland valley-garden (deer-visited) with stream and steep, adventurous footpath down to Lustleigh (pub, 1 mile). Each cottage has its own pretty, paved, enclosed patio (flowers, furniture, barbecue). Phone/fax in owners’ office. Stairgates, baby monitors, nightlights and socket covers in all (except A137). Spring water. Comfortable cottages in a lovely setting, welcoming in any season.

The two barn cottages, A136 and A137, are quite small but delightful: ‘upside down’, imaginatively, very attractively and meticulously done.

Stable Corner (arrow 3) has hall; 2 steps up to two small pretty bedrooms downstairs – a double (washbasin), and one with children's bunks (2'6"); bathroom (suite, power-shower over bath). Stairs up to living/dining/fitted kitchen (dishwasher, washer-drier, microwave, fridge-freezer), the living area with woodburner, TV/DVD and French windows to little balcony looking over charming own patio (flowers, pergola) and down the wooded valley. Sleeps maximum of 2 adults and 2 children; no children under 2 or over 12.

    "A lovely comfortable cottage in a beautiful setting. A long and windy (typical Devon) lane to get there but a gem of a location and friendly helpful owners. The kids loved the pool and games room."

    "Please make aware of difficult narrow access to location. Facilities good and cottage fully equipped."

  • Mr & Mrs Matthews

    "Wonderful cottage with fantastic views and a great bonus having the heated swimming pool and the very well equipped games room. Our daughter loved checking on the chickens and ducks and collecting eggs. Also the outdoor play area was very well looked after and in good condition. We was made very welcome by the owners and sorry to hear they were moving on but good luck to the new owners. The weather didn't matter because of the fantastic facilities. Becky falls was a lovely place to visit as was the pony sanctuary, both had lots to fun things to do for the children. Overall we loved our week and wished we had done two weeks."
