Set on the edge of Dartmoor National Park, this off-grid lodge is perfect for keen anglers and walkers wanting to explore the idyllic Devonshire countryside. A peaceful coarse fishing lake sits right on your doorstep, offering exclusive fishing for carp, while unbeatable walking and cycling trails are within easy reach. The lodge’s unique selling point is its eco-credentials; with solar panels supplying electricity and heating the water, you can enjoy a tranquil retreat with a smaller carbon footprint. This is an ideal getaway for a small family or two couples seeking a rural escape.
Accessed via external steps, the lodge has a wonderfully rustic feel. The open-plan living space features a lounge with comfortable seating, a bio-ethanol fire for cosy evenings, and double doors that open onto a decked terrace, extending the space and offering views of the lake. A dining area provides a spot for enjoying meals prepared in the kitchen, which offers everything needed for a self-catered stay.
