Description
Abbey Cottage is an attached property - a quirky blend of old and new. It takes it's name from the ancient ruined priory over which it looks. A lovely peaceful, sunny south facing location with glorious country views. It makes an ideal base from which to explore the beautiful South Hams, being located midway between Totnes and Dartmouth.
The cottage is in a particularly sunny position on the edge of the traditional South Hams village of Cornworthy. There are pretty gardens, (perfect for just chilling out with a book or glass of something) and the all important off-lane parking. It feels quiet and peaceful but not too remote, with the benefit of some local facilities within the village.
The accommodation is light and spacious. It includes an upstairs bathroom with a separate toilet, as well as a downstairs toilet. The 2 double bedrooms are a generous size. Cosy sitting room has a woodburning stove. Open plan kitchen dining room, electric heating and double glazing throughout.
Super country walks are on your doorstep. Starting from Abbey Cottage there are many round walks you can make to take in the stunning local countryside and riverside. These can include refreshments at one (or more!) of the fabulous local pubs. The village "local" is The Hunters Lodge Inn which has been re-opened early 2016 to wide acclaim, it offers superb food in a relaxed atmosphere. There are also two lovely waterside pubs in nearby Tuckenhay, an easy walk away down one of the very beautiful local Devon "green lanes" .
When you are ready to venture further afield, the wider South Hams area is famous for its many and various attractions, from the stunning coastline and beaches, historic villages and properties, to the wide spaces and wild ponies on dramatic Dartmoor.
