Tranquil bolthole in Ashprington

This stylish newly refurbished space forms a wing of my contemporary single-storey home in one of South Devon's prettiest villages (complete with pub offering food). Surrounded by gardens, it's the perfect place to unwind, use as a base to visit beaches or Dartmoor, or complete that unfinished novel. The medieval market town of Totnes, with its eateries and independent shops, is just ten minutes' drive - or take the footpath along the River Dart, watching for kingfishers and rowers as you walk. The space You have the use of three rooms: a bedroom/lounge with views out to the front and back gardens; a study/utility room with a table and chairs (and fridge and toaster) where you can sit and work at a laptop, or enjoy a tea or coffee; and your own private bathroom with bath and shower. Clare, your owner, occupies the rest of the house. Guests can access cooking facilities and washing machine if staying for a week or more (I can advise on places to find a first-rate cooked breakfast). When the weather is fine, you're welcome to sit outside and enjoy the views of the herbaceous border and the village - table and chairs provided. Guest access You will be occupying one wing of my property. Other things to note The property is half way between Dartmoor, perfect for walking, and some of Devon's finest beaches - my favourites are Blackpool Sands and Hope Cove. For shopping, you're in easy reach of Totnes and, a bit further, Ashburton, Kingsbridge and Dartmouth. And for locally produced food, there's Daynes Farm shop nearby too. For eating out you are spoiled for choice. There is a lovely gastropub, with log fires, in the village. Also nearby are the Waterman's Arms, The Maltsters and The Church House Inn, the last two renowned for their food. Also worth a mention are Emilia and Rafikis in Ashburton. There's a wide range of places to eat in Totnes too, including the Bull Inn and Circa. For daytime coffee and cake, don't miss Nkuku interiors store, near Harbertonford, the cafe at Daynes Farmshop, or the Hairy Barista in Totnes (not to be confused with the Bearded Florista just down the road!)
