 Superb panoramic views, peace and tranquillity in this unique ecologically-sound barn conversion. Enjoy the seclusion of this splendid stone and brick building within half-a-mile of the village without markedly increasing your carbon footprint. It is within easy distance of National Trust properties (including Arlington Court, Castle Drogo and Knightshayes Court), the Royal Horticultural Society gardens at Rosemoor and walking on Dartmoor and Exmoor, being just a mile from the Two Moors Way.
The "wow factor" is magnified by extensive beautiful and varied gardens on all sides, seven acres in all, with the herbaceous border especially enjoyed by keen gardeners. There is a sunny south-facing terrace in front of the barn and a large elevated deck to the rear of the kitchen, both with wonderful views over the entire valley and beyond.
