Ideally positioned in the quaint and rather beautiful north Devon village of Tawstock, The Lodge offers a truly special retreat! This Grade II Listed, thatched, former Lodge house to Tawstock Manor with records dating back to the 19th Century delivers on character charm, luxury interiors and a manicured garden whilst mixing effortlessly with modern day living and being reverse level! It has been lovingly and sympathetically restored and brought back to life with results that are clear to see. The Lodge is set to become a favourite for couples or a lone adventurer and of course we would not want you to leave your four-legged friend at home.
Entering through the stable-door you will be greeted by an open plan living-room with a vaulted ceiling which will instantly reveal the true size of this tardis, styled and beautifully furnished the sitting-area also benefits from Sky TV and a log-burner for those chiller evenings! The kitchen has been designed to allow you to cook up a storm or that perfect first day breakfast, which can be enjoyed from the dining-area. The vaulted ceiling has restored beams and the room has dual-aspect windows and so is very light. Talking of windows these have been lovingly restored and add a beautiful original feature to this truly charming lodge.
On the lower ground floor you will discover the beautiful bedroom and bathroom, the exquisitely styled and furnished bedroom floods with light thanks to the feature door and a cleverly installed sky light, with a blind for those light sleepers! When it comes to a good night's sleep this sumptuous king with beautiful linens, mixed with a dose of fresh Devon air, will allow you to recharge each night ready for another day of discovering all that north Devon has to offer.
When it comes to a perfectly designed cottage garden which is lovingly maintained and looks like it's been part of The Lodge for years then this garden would win first prize at the village fair. The garden really is an extension of the house with not one seating area but three, from the verandah to the pergola you can follow the sun and really enjoy the best of the views and tranquility of village living. The Lodge also benefits from a utility-area that houses the washing machine, tumble-drier and an additional fridge/freezer.
