The Nook

The Nook is a pleasant first-floor apartment in Chagford, Devon, offering roadside parking on a first-come, first-served basis, open-plan living, and space for four guests.

After arriving in the village, step upstairs to a light, sociable layout where mornings begin with the kettle on and plans taking shape around the dining table.

The open-plan living space brings everyone together, whether you’re spreading out a map over breakfast, putting the coffee maker to work, or settling in with a book while the day’s adventures are discussed.

The kitchen is set up for easy self-catering, with a dishwasher for quick clear-ups and plenty of handy essentials for rustling up anything from simple suppers to a weekend brunch.

When it’s time to unwind, sink into the sitting area with the TV and a selection of boardgames that suit rainy afternoons as well as relaxed evenings in.

Two bedrooms offer flexible sleeping arrangements, with one double and one twin, making the apartment a great choice for friends or couples travelling together.

Freshen up in the bathroom, where a bath with shower over sets you up for the day ahead, and the heated towel rail adds a welcoming touch after a brisk walk.

Wander towards The Square for a gentle start to the day, pick a table at The Old Forge Caffè & Restaurant, or pause for something sweet at The Birdcage Chagford Eatery.

For a classic local pint, make your way to The Globe Inn, or book dinner at the Three Crowns before strolling back through the village.

For longer walks, the National Trust’s Castle Drogo lies within reach on foot, adding a memorable day out to your itinerary.

Whatever your plans, The Nook makes a lovely base in Devon.
