The property
Three miles from North Tawton is this cottage converted from a granary on 150 acre farm which rears cows and sheep.
From the hall, head through to your big sitting room, a cosy place to sit with living flame gas fire in an inglenook and views over fields through glass doors, plus a dining area.
Up a few steps is your fine country style kitchen which also opens to the garden.
Peaceful sleeps are to be enjoyed in the three bedrooms upstairs, one with a little balcony.
Outside you can breathe the fresh country air in your big enclosed garden with its barbecue area prettily surrounded by a pergola over which wisteria and jasmine grow, beyond which are the paddocks of grazing animals and a wildlife pond.
For the children, there is fun to be enjoyed in the games barn with its table tennis and other pursuits.
Get on your bikes and cycle (or walk) the lovely easy Tarka Trail, or take day trips to fabulous surf beaches at Bude and Saunton Sands.
This is a brilliant central location for exploring Devon, with Dartmoor within easy reach and town and city amenities in Okehampton and Exeter.
Jackdaws Cottage is a truly peaceful retreat in a convenient location for discovering Devon.

About the location
NORTH TAWTON
Winkleigh 3 miles; Okehampton 7.5 miles.
The charming country town of North Tawton quietly rests amidst lush green fields, high hedgerows and winding lanes, just eight miles north of historic Okehampton. Nestling between the high, rugged tors of Dartmoor and the wide sandy beaches and rolling surf of the North Devon coast, this delightful town boasts picturesque thatched cottages and quaint pubs and restaurants. The surrounding countryside is ideal for walking and cycling, with many pretty little villages dotted throughout the area, and several excellent coarse fishing lakes and rivers, quality golf courses, and a number of National Trust properties within easy reach. There are few better spots from which to experience the joys of beautiful Devon.
