The cottage makes an ideal location for active guests who like hiking, cycling, geocaching and horse riding & there is never a dull day in Dartmoor National Park! The moor is on the doorstep (literally) and for most people this is the main attraction. The beaches are not far away and the Two Moors Way runs across the top of Wind Tor and this takes you right through to Exmoor. The two pubs (The Rugglestone and The Old Inn) in Widecombe do a thriving trade and are both well worth visiting. The Cafe on The Green in the village has a countywide reputation for great food, atmosphere and service. We have just installed a new kitchen which includes a Bosch induction hob, double oven and microwave. The dining area has beautiful views over the garden and open fields. The lockable garage is available for the storage of bikes and other activity equipment. We offer very economical EV charging at the property. The accommodation consists of 1 twin bedroom, 1 double bedroom and a small box room suitable for a young child. There is a new fully equipped kitchen and diner, modern bathroom and living room. Off road parking for 2 cars, and 20 metres away further parking. The EV charger is attached to the house. The cottage and garden have stunning views across the Widecombe valley; there are guides to walks and rides from the doorstep, most of which take in a local pub. Birds, butterflies and bees can all be seen in the garden. The garden is one of the main features of the cottage and it has benefited from a lot of investment over the years. In order for it to be maintained to a high standard, the gardener does need to attend regularly and because of the vagaries of the weather and the tight schedule he has to adhere to, we cannot always predict when he will arrive so we apologise in advance for any inconvenience this may cause. Hot pasties are for sale daily at the kiosk on the village green. ## Property amenities ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transport - Electric car charging station on site - Car required - Onsite parking options include a garage ### Kitchen - Blender - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Electric kettle - Hob - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 3 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1.5 bathrooms - Bathtub - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - Books - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Patio ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - Up to 25 kg per pet ### Suitability/Accessibility - Hardwood flooring in public areas - No lift - Smoke-free property ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board - Phone ### Location highlights - In a rural location - In a village ### Things to do - Tennis - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Mountain biking nearby - Mountain climbing nearby - Swimming nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) - First aid kit - Fire extinguisher ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Comprehensive food waste policy - Comprehensive recycling policy - Double-glazed windows - Electric car charging station - Garden - Unit size: 1,076 square feet ## Similar properties ![Marina](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/20000000/19230000/19228900/19228802/7d6d5112.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### Family Holiday Home 3 Bed 2.5 Bath Free Wi-Fi 10 mins walk to Westward Ho!

The view is of the Widecombe valley are amazing and uninterrupted. You can walk from the front door onto the hills of the National Park behind or, if you prefer, down to one of the two pubs in the village both of which serve food. One word of warning; 3rd bedroom is very small and only has a bunk in it. ##### Peter G.

We watched birds from our garden sundeck - we enjoyed topping up the bird feeders regularly. Since we don't drive, we had Tesco deliver our food and booked some taxi rides with the excellent Station Taxis. We particularly enjoyed the walk up from the cottage to Hameldown and Grimspound. I would thoroughly recommend this cottage, it's spacious and well equipped, sadly without real fire, but with outstanding features like a window- nook and a wonderful garden with fantastic views. Will definitely be back one time! ##### Michaela P. Stayed 14 nights in Aug 2017 This review was submitted before 2018 and has not been verified. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Simeon T. 15 Mar 2016 #### Perfect as usual The house is always a charming place to get away from it all. It's just far enough away from anything touristy to give peace and quiet, but not so far away that you have to drive for hours to do anything. There's plenty to do, both in Widecombe and around it, including plenty of walks, and a lovely farm shop about 5-10 minutes drive towards Newton Abbot. I can honestly say each time we go, it's a home away from home. You'd never know it was a holiday home, not too posh, it feels like a family home. Obviously it's very well taken care of, very clean, and there's always some every day essentials in the kitchen cupboards. The only problem we had was needing more time to do everything we wanted. We'll certainly be back again. ##### Simeon T. ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller 16 Aug 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy Das Häuschen liegt landschaftlich wunderschön.
