About this property

Just two miles from the small, quaint, stannary town of Chagford in West Devon, lies this wonderful, four-bedroom holiday home, Langstone Farm. Set in an isolated, rural location surrounded by green rolling hills, and close to the wild moors, this listed former longhouse enjoys superb views of surrounding countryside, ample off-road parking, and a fabulous, rustic interior completed with exposed wooden beams and brickwork, providing an ideal base for a family of eight or group of sharing friends who are seeking a relaxing, fuss-free escape within the magnificent Dartmoor National Park. Approach your new dwelling via private driveway, where a tranquil pond greets you as you soak in your peaceful new setting. Step inside and discover an array of tastefully-presented living spaces, starting with a fully-equipped kitchen/diner, featuring a large dining table seating eight, an impressive AGA range cooker, as well as an electric oven and hob, perfect for feeding big groups. When it’s time to relax, head to the inviting sitting room complete with plush sofas, a sleek Smart TV and exposed beams, perfect for enjoying a movie night or choose a book from the provided selection. When sleep finally calls, head upstairs to refresh in one of four sumptuous bedrooms, with three king-size bedrooms and a super-king with an option of converting into two twin beds. If you can tear yourself from your amazing new home, lace up your boots in the boot room before you head out to explore your local area. Enjoy the south-facing outdoor table and chairs under the sumptuous smell of roses with adjacent kitchen and herb garden filled with raspberries, strawberries and other culinary delights. View the surrounding area from the top of the lawned garden, looking over Langstone’s private fields with friendly sheep grazing, with a spectacular view point, perfect for sun downers and dog walks. A brief car trip south will take you into the market town of Chagford, where you can load up on homely essentials at D&T Wannell Greengrocers on your way to settle down for a delicious pub lunch at the 13th Century Chagford Inn. Just four fields away is the tiny hamlet of Wonson, with its tiny, unique pub – the Northmoor Arms. You’ll find a wealth of exciting things to do and see during your visit to Langstone farm. Within five minutes surround yourself in the ancient stone circle of Scorhill in the dramatic Dartmoor National Park, with far reaching views of Exmoor, the Blackdown hills and the famous Haytor. The stunning North and South Devon coastline are easily accessible as are other numerous Dartmoor towns including Moretonhampstead. Wake up to the sounds of an ancient, unspoilt corner of England, and recharge your batteries on its pristine air. All of this and so much more is waiting to be enjoyed when you book a stay at Langstone Farm.

A picturesque town at the northern point of Dartmoor National Park in Devon. Chagford, one of the five Stannary towns of Dartmoor, is small in size but is packed with amenities and things to do.

    The garden was well maintained and our dogs loved playing there. we could also use their fields over the road next to the off road secure private parking. The property was well resourced throughout and it was lovely and clean on our arrival. We will definately be back again at some point as it was a great location for exploring Devon as well Cornwall.
