Winkleigh is a small rural village in the heart of Devon's rolling countryside and offers a shop, post office, butcher’s and a cafe, plus two pubs which offer food and the chance to sample traditional ciders and scrumpies from the Winkleigh Cider Company. 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 under 40 minutes by car. The Cathedral City of Exeter with its Roman city walls, shopping centre, theatre and restaurants is a mere 20 miles away.

Winkleigh 2 miles. Once part of a larger farmstead, this charming stone-built wing is now a holiday home with rustic character and charm and its own, private fenced garden with views towards Dartmoor. Converted to a high standard with a modern, fully fitted kitchen, the stylish and comfortable interior has tastefully retained much of the building's original character. The cottage is surrounded by the owners’ land with an intricate network of country walks extending in all directions, and with the rolling tors of Dartmoor just 10 miles away, the whole area is a walker’s and nature lover’s paradise.
