The Corn Mill
A beautifully presented cottage in tranquil surroundings
Formerly an old corn mill some 400 years ago, this unusual detached and spacious holiday home has been lovingly restored and is well-presented with all the comforts of home. Situated between the Exmoor National Park and the North Devon Heritage Coast, this is the perfect place to spend your family break.
The well equipped kitchen in the Corn Mill highlights countryside charm and contemporary style. The modern cream wood units with spacious wooden work-surfaces effortlessly blend in with the cherry wooden floor.
The kitchen features a good range of appliances, including an electric oven with ceramic hob and grill, dishwasher, two microwaves and a undercounter fridge and freezer, as well as a coffee machine. Also included are the standard applicances such as a kettle, toaster and slow cooker.
Situated on the first floor, The Corn Mill's open living area encompases a comfortable loung and dining area, benefiting from wonderful views of the local countryside. This spacious open living area contains warm cherry wood floorboards, adding the countryside feel of this cottage, as well as beautiful French doors allowing you to be as close as possible to the outside.
Located at one end of the space is the lounge. Containing two large sofas, there is ample seating for most families. A coffee table in the middle allows you to relax and unwind and is complemented by the 32" TV and DVD player situated in the corner. The focus point of this space are the beautiful French doors, bringing in light throughout the day. On warm summer evenings, open the doors up to let the evening sunshine flood the cottage.
Just behind the lounge area is the dining table, with seating for up to 6 people. Enjoy the local delicacies from nearby farm shops that are just a short drive away.
Located on the ground floor, the master bedroom in the Corn Mill is a lovely spacious room, containing a king size bed and large wardrobe. Bedside tables along with a chest of drawers, on top of which is a 28" TV with Freeview and DVD player, means there is plenty of space to put away clothes. As well as this, you will also find a hair dryer within the room.
Arguably the best part of this bedroom is the beautiful spacious en-suite. Containing toilet, sink and rainfall shower, the en-suite is very well equipped.
At the opposite end to the master bedroom, you will find the large second bedroom. Featuring a super king zip-and-link bed, it enables you to have two different sleeping arrangements.
