About this property

Dog friendly rural retreat with countryside views

The cottage allows for easy access to the nearby Muddiford Inn, which is situated in the village. Additionally, the vicinity boasts the Broomhill Sculpture Gardens, renowned for its unique outdoor art collection and award-winning restaurant, as well as the Blakewell Trout Farm and Farm Shop. One of Muddykins Cottage's advantages is its proximity to the edge of Exmoor, a designated Dark Sky Reserve, the largest in Europe. Here, the reduced light pollution enhances stargazing opportunities, providing clearer views of the stars.
Only 4 miles away lies the historic riverside market town of Barnstaple, and picturesque country lanes provide easy access to Exmoor National Park, the spectacular rugged coastline, and numerous stunning golden sandy beaches that are perfect for surfing. All of this is set within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

Muddykins Cottage is perfectly situated for a wide range of customers. Whether you're seeking a romantic retreat, a walking holiday, or quality family time, this cottage is certain to create lasting memories and foster a desire to return time and time again.
