A beautiful traditional Devon cob and thatch cottage, set in approximately 1/3 acre of English country gardens. This lovely, characterful cottage is located in the popular village of Newton St Cyres on the outskirts of Exeter and has far-reaching views across open countryside to the rear.

The private gardens extend predominantly to the front of the cottage where views across the neighbouring fields add to the rural feel.  The sweeping driveway passes through a small, wooded area into a dedicated area for parking and there are a number of outbuildings, including a garage and carport and a log cabin style office building.
