The bathroom is sleek and stylish, boasting a bath with a shower over, a basin, a heated towel rail, and a WC.

Here, you can enjoy a leisurely soak after a day of exploring Dartmoor National Park.

Should you manage to tear yourself away from this serene haven, venture out to the rugged Dartmoor landscapes where an abundance of history and natural beauty awaits.

The cottage is surrounded by the stunning landscapes of Dartmoor and beautiful countryside.

Situated within Dartmoor National Park, renowned for its wilderness and granite tors, the area is also home to Hounds Tor, the famous setting for Sherlock's The Hound of the Baskervilles.

Glorious walks begin right from the doorstep, including the Two Moors Way and the Mariners Way.

From the cottage, you can hike to the charming town of Chagford or explore the ancient Bronze Age settlement of Grimspound.

For a memorable experience, visit the Warren House Inn, where the peat log fire is reputed to have never burnt out.

This iconic, remote Dartmoor pub is a beautiful 2-3 mile walk across the moors from Lingcombe Barn, which sits on the very edge of the moor.

The Mariners Way, a long-distance footpath, runs past the property and forms part of the Two Moors Way.

Explore the ancient ruins of Grimspound, dating back to the late Bronze Age, and from here, make your way up to Hookney Tor for breathtaking panoramic views, a true gem of Dartmoor National Park.

Take a glimpse into the past at Bennett's Cross, an authentic wayside cross, and admire the circular spectacle of Fernworthy Stone Circle, another testament to the area's rich history.

On your way back, don’t miss the mysterious Grey Wethers, a pair of ancient stone circles, completing your day of exploration with a fascinating journey through time.

With all this and so much more to discover, a stay at Lingcombe Barn will be a holiday to remember.
