Down Cottage

Lapford 3.2 miles.

Down Cottage is a delightful single-storey cottage in Down St. Mary, near Crediton, with off-road parking, an enclosed garden, and a bright open-plan living space.

Suited to a small family, friends, or two couples, this well-arranged base makes it easy to settle in and shape each day at your own pace in Devon.

Step inside and the heart of the cottage unfolds in one sociable space, where the kitchen, dining area, and sitting area sit together beneath a simple, easy-going layout.

The kitchen is well-equipped for everything from a slow breakfast to an evening meal, with an electric oven and hob, microwave, dishwasher, fridge/freezer, and coffee maker ready for use.

After a day out, the sitting area offers a welcoming place to stretch out with the Smart TV on, while the dining table invites relaxed dinners and easy conversation.

The two bedrooms, one double and one twin, provide a flexible arrangement, while the shower room with its walk-in shower adds a fresh finish.

Outside, the enclosed garden with patio and furniture creates an easy extension of the cottage, whether you begin the day in the open air or gather again as the light softens.

A short trip brings you to Crediton, where you can explore the impressive Church of the Holy Cross, wander through Shobrooke Park, or browse independent shops lining the town.

Head to Exeter for a day out, visiting Exeter Cathedral, discovering history at the Royal Albert Memorial Museum, or stepping beneath the city streets in the Exeter Underground Passages.

Alternatively, spend time in Tiverton, home to Tiverton Castle, waterside walks at the Grand Western Canal Country Park, and heritage displays at the Tiverton Museum of Mid Devon Life.

Whether you're seeking history, open green space, or a change of scene, Down Cottage offers a well-placed base for exploring this varied part of Devon.
