About this property
This comfy Devon cottage is situated on the edge of the Dartmoor village of Holne. It has been converted from a barn attached to the owner's house and makes an ideal base for families and couples to enjoy Dartmoor and the beautiful surrounding countryside. The upside down layout means you have a lovely lofty open plan space on the top floor with wood floor, seating area with wood burning stove, dining area, kitchen and steps leading up to a door to the garden. Two of the three downstairs bedrooms enjoy an en suite, as well as the smart shower room. The enclosed garden is a peaceful spot with lawn, views over countryside and the moors and garden furniture. This is a wonderful place for the great outdoors, with excellent walks and riding stables nearby, as well as fishing for trout or salmon in the River Dart. The beaches at Torbay are just 15 miles away, and of course the wide expanses of Dartmoor with its ponies, sheep and cattle are waiting to be explored. The Stone Barn Cottage is a welcoming base for exploring the moors and south coast of Devon
On the southeastern slopes of Dartmoor is the pretty village of Holne, with its 13th century church and Community Shop & Tearoom.
