The Farmhouse (sleeps 6) is our largest holiday cottage, the sitting room has an original stone floor and an impressive inglenook fireplace with two bread ovens and a wood burning stove. There is comfortable seating and a TV with VCR/DVD/CD player. The farmhouse kitchen has an oil-fired Rayburn and is fully equipped (including microwave, dishwasher and coffee maker). The separate dining room also serves as a second sitting room, with dining table and chairs, comfortable seating and another TV. There are three bedrooms upstairs (a double and two twins), a bathroom (with large corner bath, hand basin, WC, and heated towel rail) and a separate shower room/WC. All bedrooms have southerly views overlooking the courtyard.
The surrounding area
Exmoor Cottage Holidays is a small group of comfortable holiday cottages converted from a former farm, each with a wood burning stove. The cottages are surrounded by three acres of colourful and interesting gardens, including a wildlife pond, various lawned and wooded areas, and a charming path up and around Humphrey’s Hill.
The cottages are in Challacombe, a small parish in the Exmoor National Park, and are ideally placed to explore the heart of Exmoor and the spectacular coastline of North Devon. Challacombe has excellent local amenities; a friendly local shop/Post Office; and an Inn (The Black Venus) offering very good food, real ales, and a traditional atmosphere.
