Mounson Lodge

Cosy cottage
Set deep amidst the rolling countryside of Mid Devon is the pretty, rural village of Cheriton Bishop. The village has a Post Office, shop, a twice-monthly crafts and local produce market and two pubs. Perfectly placed for exploring, just 10 miles away is the historic cathedral city of Exeter, and the beaches and popular resorts of South Devon are a short drive away. Just over a mile from the village centre, Mounson Lodge is a handsome detached cottage which has superb views over lush green fields towards North Dartmoor and Heltor Rock. On the ground floor, the smart open plan living area has a wood burning stove and a neat kitchen. On the first floor are two pretty bedrooms, a double and a twin, both with long views. To the rear, the secluded decking offers an ideal spot to enjoy a BBQ and take in the scenery at the end of an enjoyable day.

National Trust - Castle Drogo

Castle Drogo was the last castle to be built in England. It is a dramatic castle overlooking the Teign Gorge, undergoing a conservation project to make it watertight. Nothing is normal.

Top Tip

Tedburn St Mary lies amidst the rural charm of inland Devon, just 3 miles from the stunning Dartmoor National Park and 7.5 miles west of the cathedral city of Exeter. The main streets of this award-winning village are lined with traditional thatched cottages, two good pubs, with The King's Arms Inn dating back to the early 1600s, and a well-stocked shop. Tedburn St Mary also offers the Tedburn Fair, held every September, stone-built cottages, a Methodist church built in 1930, a Methodist school room, which dates back from 1859, an 18-hole golf course and a monthly farmers' market. Close by is Dartmoor National Park, which is home to the Dartmoor pony and offers excellent walking, pony riding, golfing and pretty villages that are scattered amongst the dramatic landscape, plus the area has become an inspiration to many artists and writers. The city of Exeter is within driving distance and boasts beautiful architecture, theatre productions and plenty of shops, eateries and cinemas. Other attractions close by and well worth a visit are the Crealy Adverture Park, the beaches at Exmouth and Teignmouth and the National Trust properties of Castle Drogo, Killerton House and Lydford Gorge. Tedburn St Mary is a fabulous holiday destination.
