The place:
Drewsteignton: exceptionally pretty village (good food pub, PO/shop, restaurant, church) on a ridge a mile from the most spectacular part of the River Teign valley (wooded river-bank and heathland walks). Marvellous scenery; fishing; extraordinary Castle Drogo (Nat. Trust); Chagford, 3 miles; the open moor, 6; Exeter, 14.

The property:

... 2½ miles from Chagford (last ½ mile private farm-lane) and 1½ from Drewsteignton, an idyllically situated, thatch-and-granite cottage 200 yards from a very beautiful stretch of the River Teign (entrance to Fingle Gorge; Fingle Bridge, 1½ miles by footpath). Good-sized and mostly completely secluded enclosed garden (trees, mown grass, stream and pond with waterfalls). Long views over the valley. Farmland and Nat. Trust woodland and heathland all round, Castle Drogo on the hilltop above.

The cottage is extremely well and prettily furnished, lit and decorated. Granite-pillared porch; cosy living/dining room with granite open fireplace (bread oven), Welsh dresser, TV/DVD/video, windows on two sides; fitted kitchen (dishwasher, washer-drier, microwave, fridge-freezer, CD player); downstairs twin bedroom (TV) with en suite fully-tiled shower-room (suite). From the living/dining room, gentle spiral staircase up to a sitting room with books. Double bedroom (5’ bed) with picture-window looking down the valley, and big, smart bathroom/dressing room (suite). No children under 10. Spring water.
