About this property
Brook Cottage occupies a superb position just above the delightful village of Challacombe in Exmoor National Park, with beautiful countryside views from both the front and back. The cottage sleeps up to 2 guests in one bedroom which has a king-sized, four poster bed.
There are no reviews for Brook Cottage in 2022. Sadly, no bookings could be made because extensive building work to the sun room and patio was delayed right through the summer as a result of the Covid epidemic.
Accommodation
Inside the front door is a small entrance porch ideal for drying coats and muddy boots. The kitchen is to your left as you enter, and the open-plan sitting room and dining area to the right. There is a cloakroom with WC downstairs. French doors lead from the sitting room to the sun-room that makes the most of the chance to sit and enjoy the lovely view over the combe beyond the garden. A sliding door gives access to a patio that is also reached by french doors at the West end and another sliding door from the dining area.
Upstairs is the large double aspect bedroom with lovely views. It has a King-sized four-poster bed and there is ample hanging space in the wardrobes and a chest of drawers. The bathroom is off the upstairs landing, which has a bath with overhead shower, hand basin and loo. Water heating is electric and controlled by a timer switch on the landing. The second bedroom is only used for storage of laundry and cleaning equipment.
The house is double glazed and well insulated. The wood-burner is very efficient at heating the cottage. Logs are provided; the log store is to the right of the front door. Plug in electric heaters are provided for additional heat should you require them. Please bear in mind that on chilly days, the best means of keeping the house cosy is the log burner.
There is a 32" TV with a Firestick giving Internet TV access.

My fiancé and I were absolutely astounded when we entered the cottage as the pictures simply do not do it justice. It was warm, clean, inviting, beautifully decorated, and had every amenity you could wish for. We’re so grateful this is where we spent our holiday, it was the perfect final holiday ....

Book a meal at the Black Venus. You will not be disappointed. Visit Lea Bay, the other side of Ilfracombe. Parking in the village- pay in the honesty box and wander down through picturesque village. Enjoy a cuppa in Schoolrooms craft shop on return.

Great little quiet getaway from it all with a lovely patio providing stunning views over the countryside. Some fantastic walks locally including Challacombe Common and Pinkery Pond. The Black Venus Inn was only a 5 minute walk away and serves amazing food - highly recommended.
