… 1¼ miles from Sampford Courtenay and the pub (last ½ mile rough hardcore farm track) and 4 miles from Okehampton, a large ‘upside down’ thatched detached cottage, renovated with care and attention to detail and made beautiful. Glorious, panoramic views to Dartmoor over the owners' 205 wooded acres (walks in fields and woods); lots of wildlife (deer frequently seen). You have exclusive use of the indoor heated swimming pool (max. 28’ x 18’ x 4’ deep, closed Christmas and New Year period), about 50 yards away. Paddocks and covered yard available for horses, by arrangement.

Steps up from lawned garden with shallow water feature. Lofty, beamed, open-plan living/dining/fitted kitchen (dishwasher, microwave, gas hob/electric oven) with woodburner, TV/DVD and French windows to huge decked terrace (table/chairs, barbecue) - just right for sunbathing or outdoor meals. Loo. Stairs (stairgates) down to three bedrooms – 2 steps up to the master double (6’ zip-linked, 6’6" long bed) with en suite bathroom (suite, shower over bath), a double with en suite bathroom (suite, shower over bath), and a twin with en suite shower-room (suite with double cubicle). External access to laundry room (washing machine, tumble drier, fridge-freezer). An exceptional cottage.
