Wood-Fired Hot Tub in a 16th-Century Devon Cottage
Outdoor Amenities
The property offers a wood-fired hot tub set beside a stream, providing a silent relaxation spot under the stars. An outdoor fireplace and a picnic area allow guests to dine alfresco while overlooking the garden and river views. The sun terrace and BBQ facilities extend the living space outdoors, with the garden featuring a rope swing and secure rear yard.
Accommodation
The recently renovated holiday home contains three bedrooms and two bathrooms, comfortably accommodating up to six adults. Family rooms include a separate snug with a book collection and board games, plus baby safety gates for young children. The property is non-smoking throughout and has been refurbished to a high standard, with a welcome file detailing the cottage's 16th-century history.
Location
Set in a secluded woodland in Crediton, the cottage lies 37 km from Exeter International Airport and 29 km from Exeter St Davids Train Station. Castle Drogo is 27 km away, and free on-site private parking is available for all guests. The surrounding area offers bluebell woods, wild garlic, and a stream that attracts otters.
Pet-Friendly Policies
Dogs are welcome, with a secure rear garden that allows pets to roam freely and paddle in the stream. The hosts provide dog poo bags and have a friendly dog on-site that enjoys playing with guests' pets. Nearby walks and the local pub, The Malt Scoop Inn, accept dogs and serve dinner.
Family-Friendly Provisions
Baby safety gates are installed at the cottage, and a selection of board games and books keeps children entertained indoors. The enclosed rear yard prevents young children from wandering, while the garden's rope swing and stream offer outdoor play. The cottage has a family room layout with a snug area separate from the main living space.
