Stepping up into this homely countryside retreat, you will soon notice the idyllic blend of character, period features and style. The opening porch space is perfect for slipping off those walking boots after a day of trekking across the surrounding trails. Venturing further into the home will bring you to the traditional living area, which sits three comfortable sofas from which to enjoy the crackle and pop from the roaring wood burner, a perfect match with the Smart TV on those chillier nights. Next door to the lounge, you’ll find your own private games room complete with a pool table and further comfortable seating, the ideal way to settle any holiday debate, or just feed that competitive edge we know we all have. Passing through the hallway will bring you to the kitchen which has all the appliances needed for a stress-free stay, whilst the dining table acts as an ideal spot for laid-back meals. Completing the downstairs is a separate WC. When the night draws in, make your way up the stairway which will bring you to the four bedrooms. These are made up of two spacious kings, both with accompanying en-suite shower rooms, whilst the other two bedrooms host twin beds. The family bathroom completes this wonderful cottage, with a bath, separate shower and WC.
Stepping outside, you will be greeted with an incredibly spacious garden with far-reaching views over the Devon countryside. There is plenty to do whilst making the most of these views including relaxing in your own private hot tub, to soak up and enjoy a Devon sunset or gaze at the stars on a clear night, whilst children can enjoy burning some energy in the shared games space, or creating games in the 3.5-acre shared Willow Walk. On the doorstep, you'll discover Willow Walk, a serene 3.5-acre private retreat on the owner's land, perfect for unwinding and enjoying the scenic views; a favourite spot for furry companions to play and unwind before and after their daily adventures.

My family, the dog and I have just returned from a week long easter break at Fern Gully. What a wonderful place it is. The position of it is what first strikes you - on arrival we were met with the quintessential rolling countryside views to the rear. Inside the cottage is extremely spacious and very clean and well equipped. It’s like every little thing has been thought of from the welcome cream teas to the well stocked games room. Personal highlights for me were the log fire, the hot tub, the children’s book collection for bedtime stories and the overall attention to detail. I liked how the garden was fully enclosed so we could let the dog out and not have to worry. The all important internet for the kid’s games and Netflix was up to task. The owners popped by on the first morning to make sure everything was ok and they were really friendly. Overall the whole experience was super chilled and really like a ‘home from home’. I’d be happy to go back and would recommend to anyone looking to take a family break.
