Guests have their own private patio area adjacent to the cottage and are free to wander through the owners superb garden towards the meadows and down to the lake, where there is fishing, birdwatching or simply space for peace and quiet.
Take a couple of chairs and spend some time watching the herd of deer and stags.
This lovely cottage is only four miles from attractive Witheridge, five miles from the village of Kings Nympton or ten minutes drive from the market town of South Molton, known as the gateway to Exmoor and famous for its Pannier Market, quaint tea rooms and antiques shops.
