Tucked at the end of its own private driveway and on the Devon and Dorset border, this delightful property is in the charming village of Monkton Wyld, which is a rural haven bordered by unspoilt countryside and acres of ancient woodland. This beautiful holiday let has spectacular views across the valley and down towards the sea, offering an array of exciting trails from your doorstep. Spend your days exploring near and far, enjoy the garden and watch the neighbouring horses grazing in the fields or venture to Lyme Regis or Charmouth beach 5 miles away for a day of fossil hunting rounded off with a fresh seafood supper. This quintessential detached property is homely and comforting from the outset, greeting you with a stunning array of flowering shrubs, climbing ivy and a sweeping lawn. Leave your outdoor boots and shoes in the quarry tiled hall, taking 3 steps up into the farmhouse style kitchen for a well deserved brew with homemade cake. You ll have everything you need to prepare sumptuous suppers and light lunches, best enjoyed in the cosy dining room next door. Across the hallway a step down takes you into the lounge, made deliciously warm by the wood burner tucked in the inglenook fireplace. The first double bedroom is accessed through the lounge via a small set of 4 steps.
