Here, two plush sofas beckon for relaxed mornings or movie nights, while a round dining table provides the perfect setting for mealtimes. The fully equipped kitchen includes charming farmhouse-style crockery and everything you need to prepare a Devonshire feast.
Positioned by the window is a telescope — a lovely touch that encourages you to slow down, spot sailing boats, or simply admire the gentle ebb and flow of the River Dart.
