A modest and comfortable holiday home from home, this quaint cottage is nestled in a row of 200-year-old properties tucked away in the small village of Westleigh which is close to the coast at Instow. The cottage is right in the village's centre, boasting a popular inn and a church dating back to the 11th century.

Retaining many characterful features, such as low ceilings, this cosy property has two first-floor bedrooms both with Victorian fireplaces with the spacious double bedroom boasting views over the estuary. On the ground floor, a cosy beamed lounge has a wood burner-effect electric fire, a smart TV & HD recorder & CD player and a dining table for four. The kitchen is traditionally furnished and the bathroom with a shower over completes the accommodation.

The nearby Tarka Trail provides miles of flat car-free cycling and walking through glorious Devon countryside and visitors can follow the trail to the beach at Instow just 1 mile away.

Lovely property. Very clean and comfortable. Neighbours are delightful. The lane is very tight to drive up and down, parking space at the bottom. No garden. The pub is directly behind, friendly staff and good food.
