This property does not accept children under 12.

... in the heart of Talaton is striking Grade II listed Talaton House, a former rectory, renovated from its 18th cent. origins and surrounded by acres of beautiful parkland and specimen trees. Beside the house, the original stables, groom’s cottage and hayloft have been finely converted with flair into four excellent cottages, all exceptionally well done with smart design, stylish furnishings, oak/tiled floors and sleek kitchens.  A sweeping drive (shared with the friendly owners’ main house) leads to the cottages. They all look over scenic parkland alongside the main house and you are welcome to wander the vast lower lawns (picnic benches, barbecue area, dogs on leads welcome) and peaceful circular woodland walk. Groom’s Cottage, Gardener’s Cottage and Barley House each have a gravelled terrace (table/seating) at the front, made private with attractive planting and pleached trees. Loading/unloading outside the cottages; shared parking area, just beyond (10 to 30 yards). An outstanding location; much thought has gone into making these superb places individual, stylish and comfortable.

Groom’s Cottage (see arrow 1) is end-of-row. Path over gravelled terrace to step up to front door to small porch; open-plan living/dining/kitchen (dishwasher, washer-drier, microwave, fridge, induction hob/electric oven), light and airy with high ceiling, TV/DVD/Blu-ray, wireless speaker and glazed doors on two sides to front/side terrace. Smart double bedroom (5’ bed), also with ceiling-high glazed door; shower-room (wet-room suite); open tread oak stairs (22” wide) up to open mezzanine level with single day bed and half-height glazed panel above living area. No children under 12 due to mezzanine. Bright and airy with convenient ground-floor bedroom.
