About this property

1¼ miles from Sampford Courtenay, one of prettiest villages in mid-Devon, with its own indoor swimming pool, is this gorgeous thatched, cottage. Named simply 'The Cottage', this beautiful chocolate box home has been renovated with great care and attention. Inside the lofty, beamed, open-plan living space has a wood burning stove and French windows to a huge decked terrace - just right for sunbathing or outdoor meals. On the ground floor are three bedrooms, all with en suite facilities – the master double with a huge bed that demands long lie-ins and easy starts, a second double and a twin. From the terrace are glorious, panoramic views to Dartmoor over the owners' 205 wooded acres. Nearby is the popular village inn, a traditional country pub serving excellent food. Maybe fish for your catch of the day in a local river, or head to the open slopes of Dartmoor for great walking. The bustling town of Okehampton has all you need for your holiday provisions, restaurants, a cinema and leisure centre. Centrally located for exploring Devon, The Cottage is a peaceful base in lovely countryside.

Sampford Courtenay, a sleepy but picturesque Devon village, and Okehampton, a thriving community known as ‘the gateway to the moor'. The whole area is a country lover's dream. The high tors of northern Dartmoor dominate the scenery and provide a splendid backdrop to nearby Okehampton

    The Cottage more than ticked all the boxes. The icing on our cake was the exceptionally good weather we enjoyed during our week here. Relaxing and enjoying the cottage and farm was a holiday in itself, but the central location of Sampford Courtenay and nearby Okehampton, make it ideal to access many of Devon and Cornwall’s attractions. Belle the dog was lovely, as were Sue and Jon.

    It was very clean and comfortable. It had all the kitchen equipment you would need to produce any kind of meal. It’s situated in a perfect position to explore both north and south Devon. We didn’t have very dry weather but the decking area is perfect for family Bar B Qs. Bell the farmers dog is gorgeous. Very friendly and visited us all the time. The long drive down to the cottage can be a problem if someone is coming up at the same time. There isn’t anywhere to pull in so practice your reversing. I would definitely recommend this holiday home to friends and family.

    The cottage was full equipped from the kitchen to games for all to play. Loved the swimming pool. I would highly recommend a stay here.
