Dog friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 11 - Cadeleigh, Devon

Close to the picturesque villages of Cadeleigh and Bickleigh, this fabulous five-bedroom property is ideally situated for families and groups of friends seeking a luxurious base to return to after a day of outdoor pursuits and activities. Wander along the banks of the neighbouring stream in search of the perfect picnic spot to sit and enjoy views across the Exe Valley. Running through nearby Tiverton, the Grand Western Canal is a pretty spot to enjoy a shady stroll along the towpath.

Take to the water in Canadian kayaks or rowboats for a group adventure to one of the waterside inns. For a truly memorable experience, book seats on one of the last remaining horse-drawn barges in the UK for a timeless trip along the water. Nestled at the end of a long driveway, your attractive and spacious holiday home has a warm and welcoming feel.

With exposed beams, polished wooden floors and a large wood burner, the lounge is a wonderful place to unwind after a long day of fresh air and activities. Sink into one of the sumptuous sofas with a hot chocolate and your favourite TV programme. Glass doors leading to the garden beyond flood the kitchen/diner with natural light.

Whether you're stopping for a light lunch or sitting down for a special meal, the elegant dining table comfortably seats all guests and is ideal for leisurely suppers in pleasant company. The stylish kitchen has everything you need and with a second fridge in the utility room, storing essential food supplies is not a problem. Five luxuriously appointed bedrooms can be found further in the property.

Two neutrally decorated king-size rooms have vaulted ceilings and exposed beams, both benefitting from en-suite shower rooms. A further king-size bedroom is a bright and airy room whilst the two twin rooms enjoy lovely views across the countryside. With a feature slipper bath and separate walk-in shower, the family bathroom has a spa-like feel.

At the end of a long day, soak in your private hot tub or light the fire-pit to maximise your time outside in the wonderful garden. Please note: the first floor is accessed via a handmade oak staircase with galleried landing.
