The property

Sourton Down 1.3 miles. Resting in Sourton, a small village on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park in the gorgeous county of Devon, lies this charming, two-bedroom holiday cottage, Two Shoes Cottage. With delightful, rustic interiors, a tastefully-presented, open-plan living space, and great positioning to nearby amenities and attractions, this property welcomes four guests and two dogs for a relaxing, rural escape to the Devonshire countryside. Make yourself at home in your new lodgings by rustling up tasty, home-cooked meal in the well-equipped kitchen space, before settling down to enjoy your culinary delights around the dining table or gathered on the large corner sofa whilst you watch a film on the TV, all the while being kept warm and toasty by the crackling embers of a woodburning stove.
The first floor living area (with larger TV) offers an alternative space for relaxing and features stunning views over the surrounding countryside and wonderful sunsets over Bodmin Moor. In the evening, retreat to one of two plush bedrooms, including a super-king-size with en-suite bathroom, an idyllic location to refresh and prepare for a night of welcome slumber. The pretty cottage garden is accessed via the lower ground floor and features a patio area with a small lawn and flower beds.

You can give yourself a break from cooking with one of the nearby country pubs serving home-cooked meals within easy reach, or head into the market town of Okehampton.
Okehampton is a market town best known for its impressive Okehampton Castle, as well as the stunning Meldon Viaduct and Nine Maidens stones circle.
There is a bus stop conveniently located just outside the property with regular buses to Okehampton and Tavistock, a world heritage site with a popular pannier market. Two Shoes is an ideal base for walking on Dartmoor with a variety of options, including the West Devon Way, Dartmoor Way and Two Castles Way just across the road.
There is also cycling and walking along the Granite Way and local walks to Lydford and surrounding villages. The cottage is very close to Dartmoor National Park, a stunning area of natural beauty and home to a number of fascinating attractions including Wistman's Wood, Bellever Forest and numerous tors.
