About the property
COUNTRYSIDE LOCATION WITH RIVER FISHING AND LAKE ON SITE
This delightful property, which is approached by external steps or on the level to the back door, has been refurbished to a high standard. Situated in a beautiful part of North Devon, approximately two miles from the village of Woolsery which has a pub, post office, shop and fish and chip shop. The cottage is adjoining the owner's farmhouse (where a warm welcome awaits but privacy is assured) and opposite a working dairy farm, and enjoys a good sized, enclosed private garden with decked area and access to fields that run down to the riverbank and lake. Ideal for summer picnics, or for those just wanting to relax and watch the varied wildlife with deer, kingfishers, otters, badgers and foxes often being spotted. Children are welcome to collect the eggs from the free range hens (eggs for sale) and feed the animals by prior arrangement. Use of giant outdoor chess set and gym equipment (air conditioned). The property is only a short drive from the beautiful Devon and Cornwall coastline, with its spectacular towering cliffs, rocky shorelines and long stretches of sandy beaches. The area provides wonderful walking opportunities with the coastal footpath and the famous Tarka Trail, which gives you many miles of safe track for both walking and cycling. Hartland Quay and the picturesque village of Clovelly, with its steep cobbled street, are also within easy reach. Away from the coast there are lots to see and do with many attractions including RHS Rosemoor Gardens, Tapeley Park Gardens and the wide open spaces of Exmoor and Dartmoor with their breathtaking scenery. For the children, The Milky Way and The Big Sheep are only a short drive.
