    “Lovely character cottage in mid-Devon, we used it as a base to explore Dartmoor, Exmoor and the north Devon coast.”

    There is an enclosed garden shared with the owners adjoining cottage which was great for our dog, also local footpaths leading directly from the cottage we're ideal for dog walking, but wear adequate footwear as they are a little damp near the river. We didn't use the log burner in a warm September, but this would be very cosy and warm on a winters day I am sure.

About the location

WINKLEIGH

Okehampton 10 miles; Torrington 13 miles; Exeter 23 miles; Barnstaple 20 miles.

Winkleigh is a small rural village in the heart of Devon's rolling countryside and offers a shop, post office, butcher and a cafe, plus two pubs, one which offers food and the chance to sample traditional ciders and scrumpy from the Winkleigh Cider Company. A van which serves delicious fish and chips also comes to the village twice a week. Winding lanes, high hedgerows and a more gentle pace of life characterise the area. The open tors of Dartmoor are a big attraction for nature lovers and walkers, while the hills of Exmoor and the surfing beaches can all be reached in 40 minutes by car. Historic Torrington, home to RHS Rosemoor and an arts centre is just 13 miles away, whilst the Cathedral City of Exeter with its Roman city walls, shopping centre, theatre and restaurants makes a great day out.
