Settled in the small village of South Zeal, just inside Dartmoor National Park, is Lavender Cottage, a charming, mid-terrace cottage offering a traditional base for walking adventures across Devon.

Expect to find a large, impressive inglenook fireplace housing a woodburning stove, with two sofas and a TV, you can relax in here following busy days. Head through to the kitchen/diner beneath the exposed timber beams, coming upon a great range of appliances to make use of, including a dishwasher, washer/dryer and fridge/freezer, with long dining table with bench seating to come together around. Open up the back door in summer and let the fresh breeze in, with the lovely garden offering a lawned area, patio and furniture for alfresco dining in the sun! Back in the sitting room, a door conceals the staircase; travel up to the first floor to find three delightful bedrooms beneath the eaves and sloping ceilings, including a king-size, a single with a truckle bed that can be a twin room on request, and finally a single, all with pretty décor and ample furnishings, serviced by the family bathroom. Enjoy a coffee on the bench at the front of the property as you wake up with the village, strolling to the local shop for any essentials or sipping a refreshing drink in one of South Zeal's two pubs, whilst further pubs, tearooms and cafés lie nearby, including Sticklepath Stores and Café and The Old School Tearoom. The bustling town of Okehampton is great for shopping in national and local shops, and offers a wider range of restaurants, as well as being home to Okehampton Castle and some local activity organisers including Adventure Okehampton.
