About this property

Idyllically positioned in a peaceful valley, on the outskirts of the village of Modbury, rests this quaint timber lodge, Bearscombe View.

Set across one level and enjoying a private sunny courtyard and easy access to both the coast and country of Devon, Bearscombe View offers an excellent base for a romantic retreat for two.

A handy off-road parking space greets you at the foot of this lovely dwelling, making unloading your belongings and settling into your new home-from-home an easy task.

Refresh yourself in the large indoor heated swimming pool that is available for use between 11am and 5pm. Towels for the pool will not be provided. Shared on a rota basis with our other holiday let at a small optional supplementary charge.

Kick off your shoes and take in your rural setting as you unwind with a steaming cup of coffee and a leisurely seat on the terrace.

Stepping inside, be charmed by the rustic, timber interior of this wonderful Devon holiday home, where you can look forward to rustling up a romantic meal for two in the well-equipped kitchen, or putting your feet up as your favourite show plays on the Smart TV.

Meal times can be enjoyed at the dining table or in the peaceful setting of your private courtyard, where you can soak in the last of the evening sunshine with a glass of fizz in hand.

The timber interior continues throughout the property and into the bathroom, equipped with both a bath and a handheld shower, so you can choose best how to prepare for bed following a day of adventure.

When sleep calls, catch your rest in one of two well-presented bedrooms, with a single offering an intimate escape from the excitement whilst the double provides the idyllic sleeping arrangements for a couple.

Lace up your walking boots and get better acquainted with your surroundings, where the nearby fields stretch across the valley toward the glistening waters of a river and a handful of ponds, providing a truly tranquil spot to take your four-legged friends for a walk or simply escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life.

    Swimming pool was perfect for all the family. Ideal for larger family when booking sister property at the same time. Grounds were ideal for the dogs and kids to run around in and the wildlife was amazing. Everywhere was well maintained.
