The property
This gorgeous, recently refurbished cottage is situated in a peaceful mews style courtyard in the centre of Sticklepath village within the Dartmoor National Park.
Beautifully renovated and hugely sophisticated, it offers a luxurious base even for the most discerning holiday maker, ideal for families and friends.
Enter via the front door into a hall with delabole flagstone floors, leading to the bright and stylish sitting room which makes the perfect space to relax in front of the wood burner or watch TV.
To one end is a formal dining area with colourful dresser and a table around which to eat or plan your days to come.
In the kitchen you'll find everything you need to cater for the group.
Upstairs, a super king size bedroom with smart en-suite shower and a second room with a king size bed both offer plenty of natural light and nice views of the village from huge, original sash windows.
Outside you are welcome to use the shared garden with lawn and picnic table, or just a short walk from the cottage is a children's playground, ideal for burning off the last of the days energy.
With a choice of two village pubs both offering good food, cooking is entirely optional.
Venture a little further to Okehampton with its cinema, leisure centre and restaurants or the city amenities of Exeter.
Fast roads will whizz you to the huge sandy beach at Teignmouth 23 miles away, and of course there are miles of open space on Dartmoor just beyond the village to explore.
Brackendale is a fabulous base for a traditional Devon holiday.
