6 Bed in Okehampton (oc-estra)

This former family home is located deep in the Devon countryside and Dartmoor can be accessed by car in just a couple of minutes. Set in acres of farmland, guests will enjoy privacy and seclusion, but also be able to experience everything the local area has to offer. The town of Okehampton is a couple of miles away and has shops, pubs, restaurants and a train that runs to and from Exeter, enabling car free visits to the vibrant, historical city. An Italian restaurant and bar is located just half a mile away, also offering convenient takeaway options and traditional Sunday roast dinners. The property is in an ideal location for the annual Ten Tors event starting point and is also only half a mile from the Okehampton Showground, which is home to Dartmoor's largest agricultural show in August. Okehampton Castle, the town’s indoor leisure complex and Okehampton Golf Club are all worth a visit. Walkers will enjoy the walks around the reservoirs at nearby Meldon and Roadford, while cyclists can ride the Granite Cycle Way, which can be accessed within a mile of the property. Other local attractions include Lydford Gorge, Morwellham Quay, Castle Drogo, Buckland Abbey and Crealy Adventure Park.
