Location Map
  
In a wonderful rural landscape of rolling countryside, between the
Haldon Hills and within the picturesque Teign Valley, lies the hamlet of
Doddiscombsleigh. This small, friendly village is famous for the award
winning, 16th century, Nobody Inn, which serves an amazing choice of
wines, cheeses, ales, whiskies and scrumptious foods. On the edge of the
Dartmoor National Park, Owl's Nest is a detached, romantic hideaway with
lovely country views; if you are lucky you will catch a glimpse of the
Barn Owls which nest in the eaves of the owner's home next door. The
small, open plan living room, which cleverly combines
the living space with the sleeping area (there is limited access on one
side of the bed), has added character due to the sloping ceilings
and a cosy,
intimate ambience! There is a private garden area adjacent to the
property, which has a pretty pond and seating area. The nearby Teign
Valley Golf Course is open to non-members and there are some beautiful
walks along the River Teign and through the local picturesque villages.
Keen anglers, with the appropriate licence, can fish from the banks of
the River Teign or at the three nearby reservoirs, Kennick, Tottiford
and Trenchford. There are sandy beaches at Dawlish, Teignmouth and
Shaldon, as well as a deer park at Powderham Castle. The cathedral city
of Exeter offers museums, theatres, shops, restaurants and guided walks
around the ancient walls. National Trust properties in the area include
Killerton House, Knightshayes Court and A La Ronde. |
