We live in a lovely victorian house at the centre of a picturesque village in west Devon. We are close to Dartmoor and Exmoor and are a short drive away from the North Devon coastline and less than an hour from Cornwall.There is a large but cosy drawing room with an open fire, a huge kitchen with dining area that opens onto a flower filled verandah, a courtyard garden leads to another garden which is our pride and joy.A gothic arbour overlooks the fish pond, a lovely peaceful spot to enjoy morning coffee.
You would enjoy the entire top floor of the house to yourself and this includes the double bedroom,large landing and separate study/ television room.You would also have on hand your own fridge and tea and coffee making facilities.The views across to Dartmoor are breathtaking! There is also a shower room on the floor below for your exclusive use,and the use of the family bathroom also.
I'm a good cook and am happy to provide evening meals should the need arise.My partner drives into Exeter every morning for work so if you need a lift into town or need to be picked up from the station this would be no problem.
We are a peaceful yet hospitable couple who are pleased to share our spacious home.
