    The location is perfect. You can see the wonderful garden through the bedroom window and fall asleep to the sound of the river ❤️ The house is lovely and cosy with plenty of space. The bedroom is bigger than in our house! The kitchen is well...

Neighbourhood information

The charming National Trust Museum of Rural Industry is located in the little village of Sticklepath, which is located along a historic ridgeway path inside the northern limit of the Dartmoor National Park. Sticklepath also has a shop, two traditional pubs that serve delicious food, and a school. A paradise for nature lovers, walkers, and bird watchers alike, the area is surrounded by beautiful farmland, and the adjacent town of Okehampton is home to the ruins of a magnificent Norman castle that towers above the tranquil River Okement. Visit the vibrant, adjacent city of Exeter, with its stunning cathedral, first-rate dining options, and exciting nightlife. While Westward Ho!, with its famed Blue Flag-awarded beaches, is well worth a visit, Bude, a fantastic beach resort with golden sands and cascading waves, is easily accessible. a wonderful setting for both friends and family.
