This is Old House Cottage attached to The Old House in the mid-Devon village of Bampton, available for holiday lets and short breaks. It is primarily intended for two adults (set up either as a double or two twin) but can also accommodate a small non-crawling baby in the travel cot provided and an extra adult by using the sofabed.

The cottage is on the edge of Bampton which is a large village surrounded by farmland on the south east of Exmoor on the Devon/Somerset border near Tiverton. It's a secluded spot but only five minutes walk away up a narrow lane from the shops and amenities of the village where you can meet all your day to day needs. Bampton has 3 pubs, all of which do meals, 1 restaurant, 1 cafe/bistro, 2 small supermarkets, a butcher who sources his meat locally, a baker, a greengrocer, Post Office and cashpoints. It's a regular winner in the Britain in Bloom competition and is a mass of flowers from Spring to Autumn (click on the Bampton button for more information).

You're well placed for both north and south Devon coasts, and Exmoor, Dartmoor, the scenic mid Devon countryside and the Somerset Levels are all within easy reach. A little further, but still an easy drive, are Dorset and Cornwall. Mid Devon has many attractions of its own, but this is a great base for exploring the South West. Here are some of the ways you might spend your day -

surfing at Woolacombe sunbathing on the English Riviera visiting the Eden Project strolling through "New Age" Totnes rambling over Dartmoor walking and wild life spotting on Exmoor exploring Glastonbury and the Somerset Levels visiting historic Exeter seeing the many lovely gardens roundabout, including the RHS garden at Rosemoor
