About this property

New to Sykes for Summer 2023. Tucked away in the peaceful village of Whitchurch in Devon, is this pretty, stone-fronted cottage, Church Hill Cottage. Benefitting from off-road parking, a woodburning stove, enclosed garden and close proximity to the local amenities and Dartmoor National Park, Church Hill Cottage is perfect for families, couples or groups of friends who are seeking a tranquil retreat to Devon. Upon entering your new dwelling, be sure to kick back and relax in the neatly-presented living/dining room, ready to click on the Smart TV and warm up in front of the roaring woodburning stove. In the kitchen, get to grips with a superb range of appliances sure to ease your self-catered stay, in addition to a well-stocked utility complete with washing machine and tumble dryer, so no matter how messy your adventures become you can keep your holiday wardrobe feeling fresh! Settle down at the dining table ready to tuck into your evening meal as the wine is poured and conversation flows; or, if the weather permits, why not make use of the enclosed garden to saviour an alfresco delight as you make the most of your scenic surroundings? When you begin to feel sleepy, slope off to one of three first-floor bedrooms including a king-size, double and a twin, all presented to a high standard and boasting plenty of storage to house your personal belongings. In the morning, freshen up with use of the spacious shower room before heading out to explore. Kickstart your itinerary in Whitchurch where you’ll find your local conveniences, ideal for stocking up on the essentials, in addition to a charming pub so you can refuel with a hearty pub lunch after traversing the local area. In Tavistock, tour the fascinating exhibits of the Tavistock Museum, before heading into the Dartmoor National Park, homing Wistman's Wood, the Dartmoor Prison Museum and Foggintor Quarry. Other close-by attractions include Lydford Gorge and the National Trust properties of Cotehele, a magnificent Tudor house perched above the River Tamar, and Buckland Abbey. Within accessible reach are also the delights of Plymouth, including The Box Plymouth, The Mayflower Museum, Theatre Royal Plymouth, Tinside Lido and the National Trust property of Saltram House, in addition to a great selection of pubs, shops and restaurants to enjoy. However you choose to spend your days in Devon, do it from the delightful base of Church Hill Cottage.

In Devon, to the southeast of the historic town of Tavistock, is a charming village called Whitchurch. For those looking for a break from cooking, the Whitchurch Inn provides a warm ambiance, and the well-stocked convenience store has everything needed for meals prepared at home. The Dartmoor National Park, located just outside the hamlet, is home to expansive moorlands for a country stroll and a fascinating past to occupy history aficionados. You may reach the market town of Tavistock, which is bordered by the lovely Tavistock Meadows and the Tavistock Parish Church, by taking a short drive. There are numerous stores, cafes, and eateries in the town. Both residents and tourists frequent Robertson's Restaurant and Pizzeria. Visit the harbour city of Plymouth; there is something for everyone there, including the National Marine Aquarium, Mount Edgcumbe House and Country Park, and Beaumont Park. The coast is also close by, so you can take advantage of the breathtaking sights and fresh air.

  • Roger

    It is located in an ideal location for easy access to Tavistock and Dartmoor. Situated directly opposite the Whitchurch Inn, which is a very good country pub with a great atmosphere, providing excellent food, especially a fine Sunday roast. Off road parking space at the cottage was an added bonus, as were the very comfortable beds and the log burning stove, which kept the cottage warm during an extremely cold and wet week. We hope to return in the future. Many thanks.

    We especially liked the location, near the Pimple, Lutyens tiny building topping a reservoir of water which is a great place to see large numbers of dartmoor ponies.

  • Aidan

    A short 10 min walk and you are in Dartmoor National Park, so a great location
