Whiddon Down, Devon - Sleeps 4

Accommodation details

Situated on the edge of Dartmoor National Park, this beautiful stone property is in the perfect location to enjoy the rural open countryside as well as having a convenient shop and pub within 1 mile. An added benefit of this cottage is that two canine companions are welcome to stay too. Spend the afternoon in the large enclosed garden; sit in the summer house for a quiet read and bring the family or friends together for a meal outside on the patio.

This delightful cottage is filled with character and charm. The living area is a relaxing and sociable space, with a wood burner to warm your toes and for your waggy-tailed ones to curl up in front of, while you watch a film on the TV and sink into the cosy sofas. The dining table is also located in this room.

The kitchen has its own breakfast bar for a calm morning, and is well-equipped and perfectly appointed to make cooking enjoyable. Sleeping four over two bedrooms, the rooms are lovingly decorated with contemporary colours so you can have a peaceful sleep after a day of walking. Dartmoor National Park is just 1 mile away, and provides miles of beautiful landscape to walk through, that both you and your dogs will love.

For some history, why not travel just 5 miles to Castle Drogo, the last castle to be built in England. For more stunning views, head to Meldon Reservoir 4 miles away, or to appreciate some natural features, Lydford Gorge is 18 miles away and includes the impressive White Lady waterfall and the Devil’s Cauldron whirlpool.
