“Idyllic”

Hedgelea is situated in a stunning location, it is perfect for anyone wanting rest and relaxation. After a crazy year the peace and quiet we found there was most welcome. We enjoyed having cows in the fields next door to us, the local walking and nearby facilities including a Spar shop and pretty cafe within 3 miles, and a Waitrose and a large Coop within a half hour drive.

“Cottage is absolutely lovely.”

As a family of six with two children we did struggle with some aspects such as not having enough room in the kitchen and the shower is very awkward to move around in. But overall we had a lovely stay and the setting was idyllic

“Lovely secluded cottage perfect location for visiting Devon and Cornwall.”

Really comfy bed and bedding. Indulgent deep roll-top bath. Fully fitted and kitted kitchen. Quirky pantry and dining room with original Victorian stove/water heater (non-working). Loved watching the cows in the adjacent fields and sitting quietly watching the birds on the feeder. Amazing to see the Milky Way on many cloudless nights. Great cottage - a perfect haven! Thank you

“Excellent holiday cottage, very well equipped and a beautiful location, set in rural countryside.”

So relaxing and plenty of space for the children to run around. A fantastic area of Devon to stay in, good local pubs and north and south of the county accessible. We loved the older style features of the cottage, eg the pantry.

“The holiday cottage exceeded expectations.”

The photos do not do justice to the location or cottage; it has beautiful views with the cottage being tastefully renovated with lovely original features. For a family of 5 we found it spacious and comfortable.

- Mr Mee, July 2020
“Beautiful peaceful location.”

Very relaxing comfortable property. Garden overlooking wonderful views. Owners very friendly and helpful. The only problem we had was that the all the crockery was situated in another room from the kitchen so we had to keep going backwards and forwards when cooking if we needed a extra plate ect. which made it a bit stressful sometimes the kitchen could benefit with making a bit of space but other than that it was one of the best places we’ve stayed.

“Lovelly, private, in nature, spacious, atmospheric, cosy, wonderful cottage.”

We loved it, and were sad to leave..... Housekeeper Charlotte is very attentive and caring. Nice communication ! Now in dutch: geweldig vrij gelegen sfeervol huis op groot eigen terrein. Ligt tussen de akkers met mooi uitzicht. Van alle gemakken voorzien. Charlotte de housekeepster was erg hulpvaardig en attent, een heerlijke taart bij aankomst en fijn contact bij vragen van onze kant. Wij hebben enorm genoten en voelden ons helemaal thuis.

The property

2 miles from North Tawton, close to tiny Bondleigh hamlet (church), a detached, single-storey cottage in a wonderfully tranquil and secluded spot with superb panoramic views over fields to the Taw Valley and Dartmoor.

Surrounding it, enclosed garden with terrace (table/chairs) and gentle steps down to lower lawn; below, wild meadow with mown paths to wander or link to quiet lanes to Clapper Cross Woods (Woodland Trust) and pretty walks beside the River Taw (350 yards).

The newly renovated interior combines 21st century comforts with a touch of nostalgia in beautifully restored original features and stripped floorboards.

Step up to door to neat kitchen (dishwasher, washing machine, microwave, large larder fridge, electric oven/induction hob) with slate floors; pantry (freezer).

Dining room with original range (ornamental) and valley views.

Living room with open fire, TV/DVD/Blu-ray and music system.

Rear hall (coat/shoe storage) with back door to terrace.

Three bedrooms - two double (one with 5' bed with foot board), and a twin.

Bathroom (suite with roll-top bath plus hand shower).

Spring water.

A peaceful and picturesque spot, with good access for exploring this scenic area of Devon. North Tawton: small town (shops, three good food pubs, excellent fish and chips, church, children's play park) beside the river Taw, in rolling farmland 6 miles from Dartmoor (lovely views of it from hilltops).

The 180-mile Tarka Trail (cycling, walking) passes through.

Exeter (city), 15 miles; beaches (Bude, Exmouth), about 26.

Central location with good roads for exploring Devon.

About the location

NORTH TAWTON

Winkleigh 3 miles; Okehampton 7.5 miles.

The charming country town of North Tawton quietly rests amidst lush green fields, high hedgerows and winding lanes, just eight miles north of historic Okehampton. Nestling between the high, rugged tors of Dartmoor and the wide sandy beaches and rolling surf of the North Devon coast, this delightful town boasts picturesque thatched cottages and quaint pubs. The surrounding countryside is ideal for walking and cycling, with many pretty little villages dotted throughout the area, and several excellent coarse fishing lakes and rivers, quality golf courses, and a number of National Trust properties within easy reach. There are few better spots from which to experience the joys of beautiful Devon.
