It is perfectly situated to enjoy Dartmoor and its dramatic landscape with fabulous walking country literally on the doorstep. Widecombe-in-the-Moor, world famous for its annual country fair, nestles in a sheltered valley surrounded by beautiful moorland hills. Dartmoor is a conservation area of outstanding natural beauty, with its rugged tors contrasted by sheltered coombes, containing some of the most spectacular scenery within the West Country. In addition to its traditional green with Dartmoor ponies the village has two inns, a primary school, village hall and splendid church known locally as 'The Cathedral of the Moor'. Although very much a rural community, Widecombe is a surprisingly accessible village, being around six miles west of Bovey Tracey and five miles north of Ashburton and the A38 Devon Expressway which provides a quick link to the cities of Plymouth in one direction, and Exeter and the M5 motorway in the other. The south Devon coast with its sandy beaches and sheltered coves is little more than half an hour by car and both Newton Abbot and Totnes have mainline railway stations with direct connections to London Paddington. 1 Manor Cottages is an attached property with spacious accommodation including two good sized reception rooms, kitchen with integrated appliances and on the first floor two generous double bedrooms and bathroom. From the first floor landing a staircase rises to two further attic rooms with Velux roof windows. Outside, to the rear there is a garden which is currently laid to stone chippings but offers much potential for landscaping, with the benefit of a block built store with power connected and two garden sheds.
