The property

Rod and Rest is a characterful countryside retreat near Dolton, tucked within the scenic surroundings of Stafford Moor in rural Devon.

Set slightly back from the lakes and surrounded by open countryside, it offers an easy-going base for couples, small families, walkers and dog owners looking to slow down and reconnect with nature.

Inside, the bright open-plan living space combines a well-equipped kitchen, dining area and sitting space, creating a welcoming place to relax between days outdoors.

The double bedroom provides a restful retreat, while the sofa bed offers added flexibility for additional guests.

Outside, the awning extends the living space, with outdoor seating providing a lovely spot for morning coffee or a relaxed evening overlooking the surrounding countryside.

Stafford Moor offers far more than fishing alone.

Around two miles of walking routes can be enjoyed directly from the doorstep, making it easy to explore without getting in the car.

Wildlife is abundant throughout the grounds, while the seven lakes create a calming backdrop for leisurely strolls and quiet moments outdoors.

Guests wishing to fish can take advantage of the well-stocked lakes and on-site tackle shop.

Nearby Dolton provides a village shop, traditional butcher and local pub, while Winkleigh is home to The Rams Head Inn for an evening meal.

Great Torrington offers riverside walks, independent cafés and RHS Garden Rosemoor, while Exmoor National Park, Dartmoor and the North Devon coast provide fantastic opportunities for memorable day trips.

Whether you're exploring woodland paths, enjoying coastal scenery at Westward Ho! and Saunton Sands, or simply unwinding in the countryside, Rod and Rest is perfectly placed for a slower-paced Devon escape.

Note: Anglers must arrive before 4.30pm to allow for equipment handling requirements.

DOLTON

Torrington 6.5 miles; Okehampton 15.2 miles; Barnstaple 16.2 miles; Exeter 28.8 miles.

Dolton is a small rural village in the heart of Devon's rolling countryside and offers a small selection of shops and pubs, making it the ideal place to stock up on any store cupboard essentials and maybe stop off for a refreshing pint or a bite to eat in a traditional English pub while you are here. Winding lanes, high hedgerows and a gentler pace of life characterise the area. The open tors of Dartmoor are a big attraction for nature lovers and walkers, while the hills of Exmoor and the surfing beaches are all a short but scenic drive away. Historic Torrington, home to RHS Rosemoor and an arts centre is within easy reach, whilst the cathedral city of Exeter with its Roman city walls, shopping centre, theatre and restaurants, makes a great day out. Other towns worth a visit include Barnstaple, Copplestone and Okehampton. For a slice of rural England in the heart of idyllic Devon, make sure you pay a visit to Dolton.
