Description
Idyllic and tranquil surroundings
If you are looking for a completely tranquil, quiet and relaxing holiday away from the hustle and bustle then this is the place for you. Coombe House and Cottages are situated in a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in the heart of rural Devon. Situated in a sheltered south facing valley off the beaten track and surrounded by rolling meadows and woodland. The abundance of wildlife here is fabulous, and the lawns and lake to the front are very pretty in the summer with brightly flowering azaleas and rhododendrons.
The main house, Coombe House, is an elegant Georgian house built in the 1700s and is superbly furnished in period furniture and attractive décor. This holiday property forms two-thirds of the main house with the owners living on site in the smaller annexe to the side. The house is spacious and would make an excellent holiday home for a large family gathering or celebration. To the side is a lawned area with large wooden trestle table, the perfect place for al fresco dining in the sunshine. The cosy cottages have been converted from original stone farm barns and retain much of their original character.
The delight of holidaying here is the quietness of the place. This little complex of properties is set in 33 acres of beautiful countryside and stands at the head of a broad valley, across from the main house is a delightful natural pond, thriving with wildlife including butterflies and dragonflies. The cottages are positioned to the rear of the main house and each offers very well appointed accommodation.
There are also many Green Lane walks in the vicinity, one of which runs through part of the grounds of Coombe House. As you stroll around the gardens you will probably encounter moorhens, pheasants or ducks, and if you take an evening walk in the woods you may catch a glimpse of a badger, fox or deer. Bird life is varied, look out for buzzards, sparrowhawks, woodpeckers, owls and several garden birds. The complex lies within 4 miles of Dartmoor National Park and within easy reach of some of the cleanest beaches in England (Bigbury and Blackpool Sands). The coastal paths offer superb walks and magnificent scenery. Several National Trust properties and gardens are nearby. The historic towns of Totnes and Dartmouth with their award winning restaurants are a short drive away. Shop and pub 2 miles, restaurant 4 miles.
