A wonderful detached, 4 bedroom country home with beautiful cottage gardens of c. 0.7 acre and parking for 3/ 4 cars situated in an idyllic rural setting, yet only 15 minutes drive from the M5 and mainline station.

Holelake Cottage is situated in the most idyllic rural setting, on a quiet country lane with very little passing traffic and surrounded by rolling hills and countryside.

Nearby is the pretty and unspoilt village of Hockworthy with an ancient church and a small country pub. Just three miles away lies the village of Holcombe Rogus with a garage, church, primary school and the beautiful Holcombe Court. Bampton (5 miles) is a small country town with good local amenities including some lovely shops, doctors practice and primary school. The market towns of Tiverton and Wellington are both approx. 9 miles away and offer a wide range of shopping and recreational facilities. Junction 27 of the M5 and its adjoining Tiverton Parkway Station (London Paddington approx. 2 hours) is just 5 miles away. This is an excellent location for schooling for all ages with a local primary school at Holcombe Rogus which feeds into the well regarded Uffculme School. For independent schools, Wellington School and Blundells School in Tiverton are both within 10 miles.

A wonderful, detached 4 bedroom country home, believed to be over 400 years old with a wealth of character and delightful views over the beautiful cottage gardens and surrounding rolling countryside. Inside, the accommodation is spacious and well presented and comprises a double aspect sitting room, dining room with inglenook fireplace and woodburning stove and a lovely, country style kitchen with bespoke cream fitted units. Leading off the kitchen is the utility room with a stable door to the courtyard, and there is a separate WC. Upstairs, there are four bedrooms, the principle bedroom with fitted wardrobes, as well as a smart family bathroom and a shower room. The spacious landing can also double as a study area.

Outside, to the front of the property is the beautifully tended and well stocked cottage garden with a vegetable garden and an orchard at the bottom. To the other side of the small lane there is a delightful area of lawned garden with a natural pond, a stream with a waterfall, three little bridges and decking providing an idyllic place to sit and enjoy the peace and tranquillity of these beautiful surroundings. To the rear of the property is a paved courtyard with gates giving access to the lane, and a further garden with two stone sheds and a hen house.
