Overview
Property code: 85596

A peaceful spot yet within walking distance of the village centre, ideal for families and friends but less than 30 miles from the sandy beaches of the North and South Devon coasts.

Discover the great expanse of rolling green hills and majestic wooded valleys Devon is famous for, setting your sights on the hilltop town of Chulmleigh as the base for your explorations. This marvellous property has plenty to offer in the way of relaxing, providing your party of eight with a hot tub and ample home comforts during your stay. There are oodles of trails leading from your doorstep that will thrill walkers of all abilities, yet just a short drive will bring you to charming market towns such as South Molton (11.5 miles) with its popular market, pretty shops and honey farm attraction. For those who can’t resist the lure of the sea, the rugged coast is within 22 miles too.

Forming a wing of an impressive property, your abode is brimming with history yet provides all the contemporary conveniences you could possibly need for your stay. Cross the cobbled courtyard, greeting the resident horses and entering to discover simple yet sophisticated interiors. Mealtimes as a group are a delight in the kitchen/diner, where your resident chefs will certainly make the most of the quartz worktops and selection of appliances when whipping up meals. Gather around the table and feast well into the night, eventually retiring through to the lounge that exudes old-world charm. Delve into your welcome pack and warm up watching your favourite films. A staircase winds up to the four bedrooms, two of which have en-suites and the remainder share the sleek bathroom with its whirlpool bath. Outside, the large garden is a sheer treat for al fresco dining thanks to the BBQ and garden furniture, plus there’s a hot tub for an added slice of indulgence.

Positioned at the heart of the countryside, you’ll be based just 1 mile from the heart of Chulmleigh, a bustling community surrounded by glorious countryside yet not too far removed from North Devon’s most popular towns and villages. There’s a golf course and riding stables within the vicinity, plus a takeaway restaurant and pubs. The Little Dart, a tributary of the River Taw, runs through the town providing an excellent starting point for a scenic walk, but you’ll also have the Tarka Trail for hiking and cycling that follows the Taw through to Chulmleigh Forest. Enjoy a day out to RHS Rosemoor 13.5 miles away, marvel at Dartington Crystal 15 miles away or head to the coast and embrace the seaside charm of Westward Ho! 22 miles away. The rock pools and stretch of sand are sure to delight any beach enthusiast, but there is lots to do in terms of traditional amusements and restaurants too.

Northleigh was a beautiful house with all mod-cons. It was clean and well-kept with great decor. Katie, the owner had thought of everything, from a lovely welcome pack and toiletries, Wi-Fi and even games/books available. The hot tub just added to the house and made a special weekend even better. Would definitely recommend. Amazing house!

Absolutely beautiful house, lovely and peaceful. Lots of room for everyone and has everything you need. Lovely decor and surroundings. Tesco delivery arranged as shops are a good driveway, although local shop is pretty good and fresh eggs at the end of the lane. Hot tub was spot on and loved the spa bath too.
