Lose yourself to a tale written with moorland amour at 10 Brushford. A heavenly retreat for two, this beautiful eighteenth-century cottage is draped in flowering roses and tucked away between the River Barle and the stunning Exmoor. Just perfect for solo sojourns and romantic retreats, it blends Boutique country living with all the character of a traditional cottage and exudes irresistible charm. Embark on a real-life fairytale and embrace slow living moments amongst the sumptuous interiors and sun-dappled garden. From fireside conversation and dining in Michelin restaurants, to exhilarating exploration across heather-strewn moors - spellbinding stays await throughout the year.

Living

Step through the front door of 10 Brushford to uncover a welcoming living room full of period charm. A picture of cottage-core perfection, exposed timbers and an attractive wooden mantelpiece are complemented by soothing hues and luxurious furnishings for utmost hygge. Perfectly curated for comfort, a cushion-topped sofa and leather armchair rest next to a vintage coffee table and a wood burning stove for those relaxing fireside moments spent in an amber glow. Cosy up with a book for literary escapism or gather over buttered popcorn and a bottle of something special for movie nights together. This room is elegantly finished with antique finds and tasteful artwork.

Kitchen and Dining

To craft delicious repasts, the beautiful kitchen intertwines function and form. A characterful symphony of traditional farmhouse features and contemporary curation, it is embraced by white tiling and features ash-grey cabinetry with oak worktops. Harness your culinary creativity and treat yourself to local delights from the nearby town of Dulverton, where a great selection of shops resides with fresh seasonal produce. To savour meals, take a seat around the dining table for two in the lounge, or relax around the garden bistro set for alfresco feasts on balmy sun-kissed days.

Sleeping & Bathing

Framed by vaulted ceilings and exposed wooden beams, the tranquil bedroom on the first floor promises nights of sweet repose. At the centre, a king-size bed is swathed in the finest quality White Company linens and comfortable throws and cushions. A bench chair rests at the foot of the bed, and a vintage dresser and wardrobe provide storage for treasures. For added space to stow belongings, a darling dressing room can be found across the landing.

10 Brushford's bathroom resides downstairs on the ground floor, perfect for savouring a blissful soak in the deep bathtub.

Outside space

A peaceful Eden on the fringes of Exmoor National Park, 10 Brushford promises an idyllic location to immerse in nature. Step into the front garden to uncover a flower-framed front where an outdoor table and chairs rest beneath a parasol, made for lingering over morning blends and fresh pastries. To enjoy further serenity, a lawned garden resides at the side of the house and beckons for slow moments listening to the lilt of birdsong and the trickle of a nearby stream. Bursting with colour in spring, it offers a wonderful spot for canine companions, or spread out a picnic blanket and unwind on sun-soaked days.

In the Area

10 Brushford couldn't be more perfectly placed for adventure seekers and lovers of nature. Nestled on the fringes of Exmoor National Park in the village of Brushford, it is only two miles from Dulverton, four miles from Bampton, and eleven miles from Tiverton, ensuring a range of eateries and attractions are only moments away. Drive twelve miles to journey into the heart of Exmoor and uncover a world of wild romance, where riverside picnics, countryside strolls and woodland adventures set the scene for blissful escapism. Particularly beautiful, Tarr Steps is only seven miles away and sits within a national nature reserve, while the Victorian towns of Lynton and Lynmouth are just twenty-five miles away for scenic coastal forays.

To see some of the most breath-taking landscapes imaginable, the Valley of Rocks resides near Lynton and can be reached by car, rail or along the South West Coast Path. Gaze at the unique rock formations, watch the mesmeric roll of waves and even see some of the wild goats who live there. For culinary reward, The Bridge Inn and Woods Bar and Restaurant can be found in nearby Dulverton and offer regularly updated menus of traditional pub fare. For Michelin recommended dining, secure a reservation at The Masons Arms in Knowstone, just seven miles away. Or, book a table at the delicious Exmoor Forest Inn near Simonsbath sixteen miles away, bestowed with a Michelin Green Star. For something a little different, Exmoor Distillery is just a mile away and offers guided tours and tastings of their craft gins.

We would love to return, what a gorgeous cottage. So welcoming and cosy. Beautifully decorated and homely. Location perfect. This was our first visit to Somerset, we absolutely loved it

Loved our stay at number 10. Beautiful cottage, we wanted somewhere to relax and be abase for days out - worked our great for us and the two dogs. We were made to feel very welcome.

Having had to unexpectedly cancel our booking at 10 Brushford earlier in the year due to unforeseen circumstances we were looking forward to our rearranged trip to Dulverton and the property certainly didn't disappoint

The cottage was gorgeous and everything that we hoped it would be, and more, and is in a secluded setting with a beautiful garden and is well situated for exploring the local area and eateries

We enjoyed our time at 10 Bushford, the location was just perfect for exploring. The cottage is very comfortable and well equipped.

Highly recommended - a beautifully upgraded cottage in a wonderful location.

My wife and I had a great winters stay to get us in the mood for Christmas, highly recommended. The Dulverton Christmas fair was an added bonus. We also had the pleasure of meeting our hosts who were very friendly, helpful and welcoming.

The cottage has to be in one of the most peaceful locations we have stayed. Decor very tasteful and excellent base for getting around the area.

Wonderful. Tranquil location. Gorgeous, quaint property. Very helpful and welcoming hosts.

The position and the surrounding area was perfect. you could walk your dog from the front doof and the orchard and stream area was so pretty .

A really excellent cottage - felt like a luxury break, just what we needed! The welcome goodies were superb. Everything was perfect!

A lovely, peaceful, clean, welcoming place to stay. Felt very relaxed and chilled here. Wonderful to have all the environmentally friendly products to use and a fab welcome hamper. Had all that we needed and made for a great break. Thank you.

All in all very good and we enjoyed ourselves. Was nice to meet the owner briefly. The cottage is well appointed and care taken to fill it with pleasant decorations and useful things. This part of Exmoor is a great location and Dulverton a good local town.

Excellent cottage great hosts. Loved being there!!

Beautifully styled and comfortable cottage.

We felt at home as soon as we arrived. The cottage is in a beautiful location and the hosts are on your doorstep if you need anything, but you won't!! The kitchen is well equipped and the bedroom a lovely place to retreat at the end of your day. We were reluctant to leave but know that we will be back.

We loved our stay at the cottage. Beautiful place and surrounding area.

A beautiful cottage close to all the delights of Exmoor. Woke up to the sound of birdsong.

Peaceful retreat for couples and their dog

10 Brushford ticked every box for us and that’s a rare thing. We both appreciated the thoughtful touches to make our stay luxurious from the beautiful linens, fresh flowers, homemade cake on arrival & lovely homemade soap in the bathroom. Thanks to Nicky & David too for taking the time to chat with us when many would opt out of conversation xx

We had a lovely break in the cottage to celebrate our Silver Wedding Anniverasry, would definitely recommend.

Beautiful and cosy cottage with everything you could need for a great holiday with gorgeous gardens. Great location with lovely walks from the front door (the Dulverton circular walk) and lots of advice from David and Nicky who were extremely helpful and friendly. Very dog friendly and there was so much to see and do around the area. It really is a truly special and beautiful retreat and we would love to return

It was a perfect retreat for us. Beautifully equipped with nothing lacking. Great location. Comprehensive welcome information, and great to have the little treat basket and bottle of fizz on arrival. Many thanks. Also recommend Mason's Arms in Knowstone and Spelt in Bampton for excellent food.

Perfect cottage for a restful get-away. Everything you might need is provided and all high quality.

Exceptionally pretty cottage with the most welcoming friendly hosts.

Amazing cottage, we had the most amazing stay for our honeymoon so chilled and relaxed! Everything we wanted and a load more!

An excellent retreat on the doorstep of the moors. Perfect for relaxing evenings after exploring the beauty of Exmoor. And our energetic springer loved it too

Very comfortable cottage, well maintained by owners. Well equipped with good quality electrical goods, kitchenware etc Welcome pack…milk, coffee, bread etc nice touch Owners live nearby…available if needed, but never intrusive Useful Local guides and maps for guests to use was very useful.

This was absolutely stunning. The cottage is like something from a fairy tale and the setting is gorgeous. Enormous thanks to the hosts. Would highly recommend.

This is a fabulous cottage. We loved the decor and it was super well-equipped. Such gorgeous countryside on the doorstep and very unobtrusive hosts, which was perfect for us. Would love to stay again and can heartily recommend.
