Eating
The smooth, sleek kitchen is a joy to cook and bake in, with all the equipment you'll need to magic up delicious dishes throughout your holiday, including an electric oven, microwave, induction hob, dishwasher, washer-dryer and the all-important Nespresso coffee machine. Next to the kitchen and bi-folding glass doors onto the deck, you'll find a fab dining table for four whilst on warmer days you'll want to make the most of dining outside on the sun-soaked deck.
Sleeping and bathing
There are two lovely, peaceful bedrooms, both simply designed with warm wooden floors, electric heating and white walls to ensure the most harmonious setting for a good nights' sleep. The first en suite bedroom has a king size bed with direct access onto a deck outside which looks over the River Yealm and ancient woodland - what better way to wake up in the morning then by the sounds of the birds and wildlife? The second en suite bedroom also has a king size bed and direct access onto its own tucked-away deck area with a table and chairs. Both bedrooms come complete with sumptuously soft bed linens and throws, whilst both en suites are luxuriously warm with underfloor heating, walk-in showers with drench heads and heated rails to keep towels warm and fluffy.
Outdoor space
Surrounded by unspoilt woodland, being outdoors is a real highlight of this property. To the front is a sun-soaked wooden deck, complete with table, chairs and a large gas barbeque for dining outside during warmer weather. There's also a smaller, private deck leading off from the second bedroom which has a table and chairs, whilst there is decking next to the master bedroom too. A short walk along the deck lies the fabulous hot tub for six, perfect for wallowing an hour or two, while on clear nights, the firepit awaits for a dreamy dose of stargazing. There's also a wildlife wetland area with two small ponds in front of the house. Of course, you're also free to explore the wider grounds, where there's the Devon Wildlife Reserve nearby where you'll find an idyllic wild flowers and verdant woodland. Make sure to pack a picnic and find a perfect spot for lunch, and maybe a glass of something special.
