The property

Carpenters Cottage is a delightful and characterful retreat tucked away in the heart of Hatherleigh, Devon.

Ideal for couples or solo travellers, this inviting cottage features a welcoming open fire, a private garden, and convenient roadside parking, a perfect base for discovering the beauty of Dartmoor National Park.

Step inside to find a cosy living room with exposed beams and a traditional open fire, perfect for relaxing evenings after a day exploring the moors.

The rustic kitchen is simply equipped with everything you need for preparing meals, while the dining table comfortably seats two, ideal for intimate dinners or planning the next day’s adventures.

Outside, the enclosed private garden is a rare find in such a central location, offering a peaceful spot to enjoy your morning coffee or unwind with a drink as the sun sets.

Upstairs, accessed via a staircase that is narrow in places and therefore not suitable for guests with limited mobility, you’ll find a charming reading nook with a fold-down desk, a quiet space for writing or working while away.

The floor also includes a shower room and a beamed double bedroom with original sloping floorboards, adding to the cottage’s unique character.

The nearby town of Okehampton offers a range of shops, pubs, and restaurants, and is within easy reach.

Dartmoor National Park is yours to explore, known for its dramatic landscapes, peaceful villages, and rich wildlife.

Visit the historic Okehampton Castle, one of England’s oldest stone fortresses, or take a scenic ride on the Dartmoor Railway for a different perspective of the area.

Further afield, the cathedral city of Exeter and the surf-friendly beaches of Bude are both well worth a visit.

Carpenters Cottage offers a charming and well-located base for those looking to relax and explore the stunning Devon countryside.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £150.
