The place:
Swimbridge: valley-village (church, pub, PO) 4 miles from Barnstaple (North Devon's 'capital' on the River Taw estuary - birdwatching, shops, restaurants) and about 6 miles from Exmoor. Splendid sandy beaches at Saunton (superb golf, surfing, dunes) or Instow (Tarka Trail biking, lovely cricket ground), 10 miles, or, slightly further, Woolacombe, Croyde.

The property:

... about a mile from Swimbridge at the end of a short gravel drive, two single-storey cottages and games room made from ancient barns in the owners' (nearby) 10 acres of gardens, wildlife ponds, meadows and woodland. Good walks from the cottages (lovely views to Exmoor, Dartmoor and Lundy Island and of sunsets, 10 minutes' walk from cottages). Each has its own private gravelled area in front (picnic table and barbecue) extending to a communal grassed ball-kicking/playing garden (gated). The owners enjoy sharing their enchanting 6 acre garden with visitors. There is nothing formal here; the garden has been created from meadow and old farmyard since 1984, dove-tailing sympathetically with the environment.

Both cottages have high beamed ceilings, deep solid oak sills and their own access to the games room (table tennis, darts and coin-operated tumble drier). Excellent for the garden/wildlife enthusiast, a delightful spot.

The Stables - 4 steps (handrail) up to entrance to fitted limed-oak kitchen (microwave, freezer, larder fridge) with breakfast bar separating living/dining room (open fire, TV/DVD, CD player, dimmer lights). Two bedrooms - a double, and a twin. Bathroom (suite plus bath-shower) and washing machine.
