Sandford 1.7 miles. Dowrich West Wing Apartment is a rustic, characterful duplex apartment set over the ground and first floor of the west wing in an incredible 15th-century property. With character features throughout, and a countryside setting, this apartment is ideal for couples seeking a charming escape to Devon. This incredible property was home to Michael Lee, with his family first farming the land around the 1920’s. Settled into rural Devon, this historic property rests close to Sandford, Crediton, and Dorwich, home to a family of that name from 1200-1717. Inspired by the home of Horace Walpole, this property was transformed from a grand Devon mansion to a ‘Strawberry Hill’ Gothic style home, complete with castellated gatehouse which was formerly a prison. Be welcomed into a generous reception space, after marveling at the captivating exterior of this dramatic home, finding original led windows and arched wooden doorways set into exposed stonework. On the ground floor you will find a living/dining space offering an Inglenook fireplace with a crackling woodburning stove to add ambiance to your evenings, and here there is a sitting area and a dining space with double aspect views out across the castellated gatehouse and gardens. The kitchen is amply fitted to encourage home cooking, with a good selection of amenities for your convenience. Ascend the stairs to find a tasteful double four-posted bed with large windows, a writing desk, and a sleek shower room for your refreshment. When the sun is shining, enjoy a tipple in the sunshine, surrounded by birdsong and pretty shrubs. Sandford is the closest village, offering shops, pubs, and eateries, and is settled close to a selection of attractions including walks within both the Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks, ideal for taking in the scenery and local wildlife. Head over to Tiverton where there is a local museum, a castle, riverside walks, and the Grand Western Canal Country Park, or visit the historic city of exciter where you will find the Royal Albert Memorial Museum, Exeter Cathedral, walks beside the River Exe, and a selection of parks to picnic in. Make a memorable retreat to Devon with a stay at the historic Dowrich West Wing Apartment.
