Comfort is a standout feature, with guests finding the cottage spacious, well-appointed, and cosy. The presence of bird feeders and wildlife adds to the comfortable and relaxing atmosphere.
Facilities
Facilities are highly regarded, with the property being well-equipped for a self-catering stay. However, a few guests mentioned specific areas for improvement, such as the need for a thermostat valve on a radiator and the limited hot water capacity for baths.

About this property
This detached timber-clad cottage is located on the owners' ten acre smallholding on a hill in Dalwood. Converted from a barn, it is comfortable accommodation for families or adults. The kitchen is smartly fitted in beech and stainless steel, and comes with a dining area for enjoying meals. The sitting room is light and airy with huge glass doors and a magnificent view over the surrounding hills. You can choose from a handy family bedroom downstairs or the pretty double which you will find in the eaves up the steep narrow stairs, together with its en suite bathroom with central romantic slipper bath. The garden is a peaceful place to relax, with lawn, furniture and a barbecue for alfresco meals. Wander down the easy footpath through fields into the village to browse in the village shop or eat at the good pub. This is a conservation area with lots of footpaths, so its great walking country in the Blackdown Hills or along the coast around Lyme Regis, Seaton, Beer or Sidmouth. With golf, riding and fishing nearby, there are plenty of opportunities for outdoor activity. Axminster and Honiton are both interesting towns to explore, Little Evanses is a splendid base for simply enjoying the views or touring Devon, Dorset and Somerset.
The lovely market town of Axminster has been made famous by the well-known organic shop and canteen in the area, which were introduced by TV presenter Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall. Nestled in outstanding peaceful countryside, Axminster is certainly a place to relax and unwind.
