Description

This charming thatched cottage is in the popular Dartmoor town of Chagford and sleeps up to six people in three bedrooms.Set in a quiet hamlet in the heart of the Dartmoor National Park is charming Thorn Cottage. Chock full of original features including an attractive granite fireplace in the cosy lounge and beamed and sloping ceilings. The large dining room with wood burning stove is ideal for entertaining and the boot room is perfect for drying wet dogs. On the first floor are three bedrooms tucked under the thatch, all with long rural views and sharing a family bathroom. A small enclosed cottage garden leads to a fenced one acre paddock with summerhouse and a deep unfenced lake. A short distance away the perennially popular village of Chagford has independent shops, pubs and restaurants, an outdoor river-fed swimming pool (open from late May to early September) and a cricket club and recreation ground.

Region: Devon, with its quiet country lanes, patchwork of lush green fields and sleepy villages is not to be missed. Stately home lovers will be spoiled and why not finish with a scrumptious Devonshire cream tea?

Town: A town at the northern point of Dartmoor, Chagford is small but packed with amenities and things to do. There is a range of shops as well as four pubs. Chagford has a tennis court and an open-air swimming pool. It is rich with history, home to the Three Crowns Hotel which dating back to the 1200's. Chagford is known for its culture, hosting festivals as well as a running race. 16 miles away is the city of Exeter, worth a visit for its architecture and shopping.
