2 Bed in St. Giles (oc-c45183)

This characterful stone cottage, sympathetically refurbished to combine its original charm with modern comforts, offers the perfect base for couples or small families exploring Devonshire’s countryside and coastline together. If you can tear yourselves away from the peaceful on-site grounds and lake, you’ll find a wealth of popular Devon attractions nearby. The award-winning gardens of RHS Garden Rosemoor can be reached within 6.5 miles, while further afield, year-round family favourites include The Milky Way Adventure Park and The BIG Sheep (both within 20 miles). North Devon’s golden beaches and seaside resorts are also within easy reach, including the sandy stretches at Westward Ho!, Woolacombe Bay and Saunton Sands (all within 25 miles). Soak up the local charm and history with visits to the cobbled village of Clovelly and the narrow streets of Appledore (both within 22 miles) or plan a day of scenic walking along the Tarka Trail or South West Coast Path (both within 8.5 miles).


Before stepping into this welcoming home, take a moment to appreciate its scenic position surrounded by peaceful grounds and a lake. Head inside and find that the rural charm continues in the form of exposed ceiling beams and stone walls that blend with modern comforts. The ground-floor open-plan living space forms the social heart of the home, bringing together a restful lounge with a sleek kitchen and dining area. In the lounge, a wood burner is set into a stone surround and casts a warming glow across the room. Unwind here as you sink into the soft seating and flick through the Smart TV. At the other end of the living space, a country-meets-chic kitchen features everything needed for a self-catered stay, and you can enjoy each meal at the dining table inside or alfresco out on the patio. At the end of each day away, head up to the first floor and choose from two beautiful bedrooms, both of which offer vaulted ceilings and tranquil views of the surrounding grounds. The bedrooms include a master king-size with an en-suite shower room, and a twin room with an en-suite bathroom.


Step outside as often as possible and make full use of the splendid patio. Enclosed and offering views across the surrounding grounds and lake, which guests are invited to explore, this lovely spot features outdoor seating and a private hot tub for late evenings of chatter and stargazing. Private parking for two cars completes the picture, making your arrival and Devonshire day trips a breeze.
