With stunning views
over Jennett's Reservoir to Exmoor, these six E.T.C. `4 Star' cottages
are surrounded by rolling countryside, and offer a peaceful and
secluded setting, with wide sandy beaches close by.
Sensitively
converted by local craftsmen, the cottages are grouped around a
cobbled courtyard, behind the owner's 17th century farmhouse, and
retain much individual character with original beams and stone walls.
Equipped to a very high standard, the addition of modern day comforts
has resulted in a collection of cosy holiday homes, offering wonderful
all-year round accommodation, with each cottage boasting its own
garden and patio.
Lush meadows and
woodland extending to 14 acres (and home to a wide variety of
wildlife) provide opportunities for pleasant strolls, and a
purpose-built leisure complex offers superb on-site facilities. Open
daily, the indoor heated swimming pool (complete with jet stream,
large shallow stepped end and constant depth of 1.2 metres), is
complemented by a games room and fitness room.
Nearby Appledore
offers all the old world charm of a fishing village, with
pastel-coloured Georgian houses peacefully welcoming visitors to the
village, famous for its arts, crafts and maritime heritage. Beach
lovers will delight in the wide sandy beaches, the nearest being the
Blue Flag Westward Ho!. Walkers can enjoy the spectacular scenery of
the coastal path, while the Tarka Trail traces the steps of Henry
Williamson's Tarka the Otter and provides miles of traffic-free
cycling - bikes can be stored securely or hired locally. For those
with a penchant for shopping, the Atlantic Shopping Village will prove
an attraction, whilst award-winning farm parks, The Milky Way and The
Big Sheep will fascinate the younger ones. Also of interest are the
RHS Rosemoor Gardens.
Several local pubs
nearby, with the nearest in the village serving real ale and home
cooked food.
