Please note: This property has a natural water supply from a borehole and there is a stream in the garden, 12 yards away. There is also a lake in the grounds, 100 yards away.. These two stone barn conversions are set on the owners’ small 65-acre farm at the head of the Teign Valley in the heart of rural Devon, yet just 5 miles away from the historic cathedral city of Exeter.
Ideally situated for couples or small families looking for a complete ‘get away from it all’ location. These properties are ideal for holidays and short breaks all year round, perfect for summer holidays in delightful Devon, and with the wood burners making them cosy for winter breaks. The properties each have a small garden and shared use of a beautiful fishing lake with ducks paddling, and wooden furniture, making an ideal spot for a picnic on a sunny afternoon, and the owners keep some sheep and cattle on the land. The Teign Valley is an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and some lovely walks can be taken here, as well as in Dartmoor National Park, which is only a short drive away. In the spring the woodlands are well-known for the fantastic display of daffodils and bluebells. Nearby you can also try horse riding, golf and fishing. Beach 15 miles.

Had a lovely stay at Honeysuckle Cottage.
Had a lovely stay at Honeysuckle Cottage. Great Peaceful location to get away from it all but within easy reach of lots of great places... Haytor, Haldon Forest park, Castle Drogo. Our daughter loved feeding the ducks and seeing the lambs. Thanks Debbie for looking after us so well  Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Honeysuckle Cottage.
My daughter and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Honeysuckle Cottage. We were greeted when we arrived and given tips on where we could go and how best to get into Exeter town centre. Yes, it is out in the sticks, but that was just what we wanted. You have to drive carefully round the country lanes and something is bound to be coming towards you, but there are places to pull over and allow a herd of cows to come past you! The rooms were lovely and clean, fresh bed linen on the beds and towels put out. Nothing is within walking distance, but lots of things are nearby when you have a car. We enjoyed Exeter Quay and the shopping centre at Princesshay. There's a huge Sainsbury's a short drive away. We would really love to go there again.
