Nestled in the heart of the Blackdown Hills National Landscape, the village of Stockland offers stunning vistas and peaceful rural charm. Perfect for a couple seeking a romantic countryside getaway, the village destination provides convenient access to the nearby market towns of Honiton and Axminster (9 miles). For a delightful day out, the seaside town of Seaton (11 miles) features a vintage tramway that winds through the scenic Axe Valley. The area is also home to Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall’s renowned River Cottage and the historic National Trust property, Shute Barton. A little over 13 miles away, the picturesque seaside resort of Lyme Regis boasts a fossil-rich beach, a variety of unique restaurants, and an array of independent shops, making it a quintessential coastal destination. Bridport offers a fantastic Saturday market and wonderful views from the National Trust’s Golden Cap, which your dog will love. Eype Beach is a safe place to swim and is close to the Symondsbury Estate for a stroll up Colmer's Hill and a lovely cafe/shop for a browse.
Step inside the property, and to your left, you'll find a spacious king-size bedroom, offering plenty of room to relax and unwind. At the heart of this cosy annexe is the lounge/diner, featuring a comfortable L-shaped sofa positioned perfectly for a chilled evening together in front of the Smart TV. The dining area enjoys lovely views over the countryside and surrounding gardens, making it an inviting spot for meals or even a fun games night, with a great selection of firm favourites. Descending three steps into the kitchen, you'll discover a fully equipped space with modern appliances, ideal for preparing anything from a hearty breakfast to a delicious evening feast. Completing the layout is a spacious shower room with a WC and a heated towel rail for added comfort.
Outside, a charming furnished and enclosed patio area provides the perfect spot for an afternoon read or for soaking up the evening sun and keeping the dog safe. Across the lawn lies another lovely sun trap patio with an additional table and chairs for sundowners and a fire pit to enjoy whilst star gazing. Enjoy direct walks from the property into nearby woodland − just remember to keep your dog on a lead at all times in the garden as deer visit most days. After your adventures, a convenient dog-wash area and space for muddy boots ensure an easy return to your cosy retreat. There is off-road parking for one vehicle.
