The Nutshell

An eight-minute walk along a tree-lined path down through the park takes you into Okehampton, known as the "Gateway to Dartmoor". It has excellent farm shops, pubs, restaurants, a castle, the Museum of Dartmoor Life and a cinema. The very best local walks are on your doorstep, from country lanes to woodland, meadows and riverside rambles. Bring your own bikes to journey along the impressive Granite Way cycle path two minutes away, which is also perfect for jogging. Go horse riding on the moor or visit Roadford Lake, 20 minutes away, popular for water sports, fishing, paddle boarding and kayaking, as well as sailing. The train station, just three minutes away, gives you access to the whole of Devon, catch a bus to Bude and all north and south cost beaches.

£2,365.00 up to £6,325.00 per week
In a secluded spot overlooking the lush Devon countryside, this large, modern Cedar-clad home is the perfect place to unwind with family in style and luxury. The heart of this home is the stunning kitchen and dining area. A large island sits in the centre of a sleek, modern kitchen with all the conveniences required for creating feasts for large groups. Gather round the island, pour a drink and keep the chef company. Congregate for meals at the large marble dining table which, when covered in laden dishes and full glasses, becomes the place to create lovely memories. Bi-fold doors offer the countryside as a backdrop and, when the weather is fine, pull them aside to bring in the fresh country air and give greater prominence to the fabulous surroundings. The outdoor space is wonderful with something for all to enjoy. Youngsters will love the large grounds, trampoline and play area, as well as splashing about in the swim spa. A large terrace becomes the outside living space in the warmer months and sun loungers and patio dining furniture make it a comfortable, relaxing space to unwind. Lie back in warm rays listening to the gentle splashing from the spa and distant laughter of young ones playing. The fabulous exterior is more-than-matched by the delightful interior. Light, bright and spacious, with an abundance of large picture windows, it is a special place to chill out whatever the weather. Tartan carpets and rugs keep bedrooms and living spaces cosy, while smooth tiles add to the clean, neutral aesthetic. Take some quiet time in the peaceful living room and curl up with a coffee on the large sofas beside the crackling wood burner. Patio doors open out on to the deck for easy access to the garden terrace. When bedtime calls, there are five luxurious rooms to chose from, including one on the ground floor of the property. They all boast modern ensuites, high-end mattresses and linens and have magnificent views across the county. Should the wonderful views inspire guests to explore the area, there is plenty to see and do - head to the coast for days swimming, building sandcastles and rock-pooling. Hikers and bikers will love the rugged Blackdown Hills and there are lots of traditional pubs and great restaurants for refuelling after a day filled with adventure. The Ashill Inn and The Drewe Arms at Broadhembury both come well recommended.

Rose Cottage

- 3 nights Min Stay
£1,285.00 per week
Rolling green hills and winding valleys set the scene for this quaint 18th century thatch-roofed cottage in North Devon. Original features and modern amenities come together to create a welcoming holiday home. Two bedrooms make the place ideal for families staying together, but it’s also cosy enough if you wish to stay as a couple. When it’s time to relax, you have a private hot tub and a two-person copper bathtub to choose from. The open-plan living area is the first room of the abode, where you’ll encounter a soft leather sofa in front of a log-burning stove and a dining table for enjoying a spot of cream tea. If business calls during your stay, there is a handy desk where you can set up your laptop. When you are ready for dinner, a Sonos surround sound system means you can play your favourite soundtrack while cooking up a storm in the well-appointed kitchen. Accompany your meal with a drink fixed at the honesty bar. The ground floor is complete with a comfortable double bedroom and a separate bathroom with a bath and combined shower. Upstairs, you’ll find the main bedroom, where a super-king size bed promises a soundless slumber, and an ensuite bathroom, where the freestanding bath is the perfect place to unwind after a long morning hike. The home also boasts a secluded, Mediterranean-inspired garden with a seating area for sipping your beverage of choice on a balmy afternoon. Soak your cares away in the hot tub – a wooden canopy shelters it from the elements, so you can relax among the bubbles, whatever the weather. Towels, dressing gowns and plastic glasses are provided to add to the experience. A pub, a community shop and plenty of country walks are on the doorstep, but if you’d prefer to take a day trip, Peppercombe Beach is a 40-minute drive away. Or why not explore the moorland of Exmoor National Park, reached in approximately 30 minutes by car? A 15-minute stroll takes you to Millbrook Estate, where you can take advantage of the BBQ hut, fishing lakes and private dining experiences.
