A lovely little cottage within 500 metres of Dulverton on the edge of Exmoor National Park, ideal for couples seeking a romantic countryside getaway. The dog-friendly cottage features a comfortable lounge, a contemporary kitchen/diner and an enclosed courtyard garden. With picturesque walks on the doorstep, this is the perfect base for exploring Exmoor and the North Devon countryside.

Accessed via a gravel driveway and adjoining the owner’s property, this deceptively large one-storey cottage is blessed with bright, neatly arranged rooms draped in soothing tones and stylish soft furnishings. Each room has a character all of its own, with relaxing views from almost every window. The lounge has comfortable sofas, while the kitchen/diner has everything foodies need to cook up a storm. The cottage’s en-suite king-size bedroom has been finished in neutral tones and promises a peaceful night’s sleep, plus the perfect excuse for a lie-in. The rear courtyard garden features a patio area and seating, along with access to the adjoining meadow with further seating.

Dulverton (500 metres) is a charming village blessed with art galleries, independent shops, pubs and restaurants. Exmoor National Park showcases mile after mile of glorious undulating countryside, haunting escarpments and bodies of water that are popular with active visitors of all ages. For something a little different close to the northern fringe of the park, villages including Porlock and Dunster (within 17 miles) offer intriguing natural and historic sights, as well as access to the South West Coast Path.
