Nestling in the foothills of the stunning Exmoor National Park on a working farm, The Farm House (UKC1339) and Bridge House (UKC1340) are two thoughtfully converted, semi-detached houses offering guests comfortable accommodation in this wonderful part of Devon. Combe View (ref UKC3157) is a stunning first floor apartment style accommodation. Thoughtfully converted and using timber from the surrounding forest, this really is somewhere a little bit special. The huge picture window sitting just behind the contemporary multi-fuel burner is a small offering of what is available to guests in this very comfortable accommodation set in this stunning part of Devon. All properties offer guests a good level of comfort and are ideal for families or small groups wanting to enjoy the surrounding area, and a welcome pack is waiting for you on arrival with a home-made cake, bread, butter, jam, tea, coffee, sugar and milk.
Centred on a cobbled courtyard with a pond, the properties benefit from the use of their own private sitting-out area as well as a very large, well-maintained garden with stunning views across the countryside. There are some great walks from the farm up onto Exmoor which is designated as an International Dark Sky Reserve, and there are a number of walks on the estate that take you down through woods and along valleys by rivers and past lakes. The walks are mainly off road and a wide variety of wildlife can be seen, from the wild red deer that Exmoor is famous for, to the tiny but vibrant kingfisher. On the estate there are 2 spring fed lakes; these have a population of wild brown trout. Fishing on the lakes is available in the fishing season. Access is by foot or by 4x4 vehicle as they are both located along farm tracks unsuitable for cars. Please ask for directions to the lakes.
