In its accommodation this is quite unlike any of the other properties in
our brochure. Though clean, bright and well maintained by its owner, its
facilities may reasonably be described as basic, yet its isolated position
and superb outlook make it a true hideaway and for these reasons, well worth
including.Perched on a plateau at 850ft., with breathtaking views of the river below and the surrounding moors, the cabin is in a uniquely privileged location. Hidden from the main house and from public view, it is set in its own private orchard with separate access directly onto the Moor below and thence to the river. Sitting
on the balcony the visitor can see no sign of human habitation and is aware
only of the sound of the river far below and the occasional mewing call
of the buzzards. At night owls, foxes and badgers are active in the ancient
woods, and heron and wild duck are frequent evening passers-by.This place exudes tranquility, yet is within 5 minutes' drive of Poundsgate (P.O., shop and pub), and 15 minutes of a market town and the A38. Plymouth, Exeter and the coast are each about 45 minutes away. All the usual country activities can be arranged, including riding and guided walks (details from the owner). In particular there is good and varied game fishing nearby at very reasonable cost. |
