About this property
Lose yourself in far-reaching countryside views across the Somerset and Devon border from almost every window of this Scandinavian log cabin set amongst 130 acres, the perfect romantic bolthole for couples craving a peaceful escape.
The countryside has never felt closer in the light and bright open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner; floor-to-ceiling patio doors frame wonderful valley views, gorgeous wood cladding perfectly blends into the colours of your unspoilt surroundings, and delightful, homely touches echo the calm and tranquillity of the local countryside. Sharing the same charm and character as the rest of the cabin, the spacious king-size bedroom is a haven of serenity; crisp, white linens ensure a peaceful rest before kickstarting your next adventure with a refreshing shower in the contemporary shower room. Outside, make the most of your stunning views by enjoying an al fresco BBQ on the covered veranda or catching the last of the evening''s sunshine on the enclosed lawn before enjoying a guided farm tour with the owner to meet the resident lambs. Onsite, you''ll also find a handy, shared dog shower.
Nestled in the Blackdown Hills National Landscape, this secluded countryside spot is ideally located for exploring Devon, Somerset and Dorset. The charming nearby village of Buckland St Mary, 3 miles away, offers plenty of scenic country lanes to explore whilst the thriving market town of Taunton, 8.5 miles away, combines a wealth of history and picturesque countryside with several high-street shops, local boutiques, cafes and restaurants. Those looking to answer the call of the sea can explore the Jurassic Coast, with the seaside towns of Seaton, Lyme Regis and Sidmouth all reached within 22.5 miles.

Mr Maskall
A very cozy cabin, which is bright and airy. The view across the field, including the sheep and the quiet make for a very relaxing spot to do nothing or just read a book. Although the location is well removed from other homes and the village along a number of narrow lanes, many interesting places and delightful pub restaurants are within easy reach. We had good meals at the "Villa Verdi" in Wellington, La Campanga" at the former "Eagle Inn" on the A303 as you approach Buckland St Mary from the east. Also there is a great daily carvery at the 'Hare & Hounds" just out of Honiton on the road to Budleigh Salterton. We enjoyed visits to the Wellington Monument, Bicton Park Botanical Gardens and also Stourhead on our journey home. We also undertook the challenge of a round of golf at Taunton & Pickeridge GC where we received a warm welcome. The cabin was the ideal base for our short break and the weather was better than we had expected. We will surely have to come again as it is also close to family and friends for a catch up.
