Perched in an elevated position overlooking the peaceful rolling scenery of fields home to animals grazing, nature-filled woodland, and a hilltop 15th-century church on the horizon – this home frames its designs around the magnificent views before you. Keen to draw your attention to the picturesque natural beauty here, the host even supplies a pair of binoculars so that you can search for animals and owls, in particular, flying through the night sky. With luxurious home comforts throughout, the space feels like a warm hug as you retreat here after a day in the countryside. From log burner fireplaces to underfloor heating (on the ground floor) and an array of cosy blankets – cuddling up here couldn't be more humbling. In addition to comfort, convenience and practicality are also at the heart of what makes it so special. For example, you'll find a boot room and utility area, handy for storing your raincoats and mucky shoes after a countryside stroll or adventure in the likes of Exmoor National Park. Just a few hundred metres away from the village of Bishop Nympton, you'll find a village shop and post office should you need them. Meanwhile, the market town of South Molton... is only a 3-mile drive away, where you'll find an array of independent shops and a supermarket.

About Exmoor
Straddling Devon and Somerset, Exmoor might be one of the UK’s smaller national parks, but you’d never know it when you’re there. Exmoor’s 700 square kilometres take in endless moors clad in a purple sea of soft heather, babbling rivers, and sheer cliffs that drop into the clear waters of the Atlantic Ocean.
