Description

Bow 2.1 miles.

Hilldown Cott, a beautifully presented single-storey house near Bow in Devon, offers a serene escape surrounded by rolling countryside.

Perfect for families, two couples, or friends, this inviting retreat combines thoughtful design with standout features, including EV charging, a private hot tub and proximity to Darmoor National Park.

Arrive at Hilldown Cott and park with ease before pausing to admire the handsome brick exterior overlooking a tranquil paddock, a picture-perfect setting for your Devon escape.

A few steps lead you to the entrance, where the anticipation of comfort begins.

Push open the door and feel the gentle echo of your footsteps across the smooth wooden flooring as you enter the open-plan living space.

Vaulted ceilings with exposed beams soar above, creating a sense of light and space, while sliding doors at the far end frame the garden and invite you to wander out later to the patio and bubbling hot tub.

In the kitchen, prepare a hearty meal while gazing out from the sink at countryside views, letting the scenery inspire your cooking.

Sleek surfaces and an induction hob make every dish a pleasure to create, while the slimline dishwasher ensures tidying up is effortless.

Gather around the wooden dining table with chairs for up to six, sharing laughter and stories as daylight fades.

Afterwards, sink into one of two inviting sofas or the armchair in the sitting area, flick on the Smart TV, and let the warmth of the space wrap around you as WiFi keeps you connected.

Two elegant bedrooms promise a restful retreat.

In the first, a king-size bed sits beside a wardrobe, with doors opening onto a private terrace where an armchair awaits for quiet moments with a book.

The en-suite bathroom tempts you to indulge, fill the walk-in shower with steam and let the heated towel rail warm your robe.

The second bedroom, a twin with zip/link flexibility, offers its own sanctuary with an en-suite bathroom where you can sink into a deep bath, swirl in bubbles, and unwind completely before slipping into bed.

As evening falls, slide open the doors and step into the garden, where the patio is perfect for alfresco dining and the hot tub beckons for a soak beneath a starlit sky.

A local shop and a welcoming pub are just a short drive away, ensuring convenience throughout your stay.

Hilldown Cott is a well-positioned base for exploring Dartmoor, National Trust treasures, and the beauty of Mid Devon.

Note: This property can be booked with ref. 1190273, together sleeping 8 guests.

The cottage is fabulous; beds and sofas really comfortable, very well equipped kitchen and fabulous hot tub in lovely peaceful surroundings.

Lovely communication from Isobel and Nick and a welcome pack - what more could anyone ask. Thank you for providing wonderful holiday accommodation to literally get away from it all.
