This rural holiday home retreat can be found amongst lush hedgerow lanes in the Coly Valley, situated between Honiton and the pretty hamlet of Northleigh, with its 13th-century church.
The spacious kitchen is fully equipped and has a dining table which is perfect for bringing everyone together to enjoy a relaxed home-cooked meal.

On a cooler evening, why not curl up on the plump sofas and watch the fire crackle, the perfect antidote to the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Also on the ground floor is a cosy single bedroom and a wet room which has a shower. As you head upstairs to the first floor, guests will be pleasantly surprised to find three further elegant and stylish bedrooms.

The ancient market town of Honiton has a wide selection of shops, railway station and access to the A30 and M5. There are street markets on a Tuesday and Saturday, and regular farmers’ markets. Honiton is noted for its lacemaking and pottery, and an abundance of antique shops line the main street. The nearby historic town of Colyton has picturesque narrow streets and a town square with a range of local shops, pubs and restaurants. Seaton Tramway is also close by and operates narrow gauge heritage trams between Seaton, Colyford and Colyton in East Devon’s glorious Axe Valley. The trams travelling alongside the River Axe estuary pass through two nature reserves, and give an unrivalled view of the abundant wading bird life.
