The delightful Lantern Cross Cottage is located in a beautiful rural setting in the heart of the Devonshire countryside and boasts 2 acres of private grounds and an enclosed garden. Originally three separate dwellings, the cottage has been transformed into a charming spacious home where family and friends can get together for a memorable holiday. Gather round the hearth in front of the flickering wood burner on blustery winter’s days, and in the summer months, dine alfresco in the expansive grounds while watching the children and dogs charge around without a care in the world.
The property offers a warm welcome to Devon with its sunny yellow exterior clad with beautiful climbing plants. Inside, exposed beams above stone inglenook fireplaces, low and narrow doorways and a all-electric range cooker give you a sense of the history of this property. The four comfortable bedrooms make a welcome retreat at night, with one of the twin rooms having an interconnecting door: perfect for little ones who want to be near parents.
Pop down to the village of Beaford (less than a mile away) where you will find a lovely pub and restaurant. If you want a greater selection, drive 6 miles to the friendly market town of Torrington with its fantastic selection of visitor attractions in and around the area. You can watch glass being blown at Dartington Crystal, walk around the delightful 65 acres of gardens at RHS Garden Rosemoor and browse the quirky shops and workshops at The Pannier Market. Take a 12-mile trip to the harbour town of Bideford where you can stroll along the historic quayside and ancient bridge or join the renowned Tarka Trail - a beautiful walk at any time of year.
