  • The Farmhouse At Higher Westwater, DevonInstant Book Overlay Image
    Axminster, England
    The Farmhouse At Higher Westwater, Devon
    Tucked away down a very quiet country lane is this 16th-century Grade II listed thatched cottage. The property is one of a pair and has been completely renovated, offering some original features including inglenook fireplace, beams, historic bread oven and also very contemporary touches for today’s lifestyle.
    The property is decorated and furnished to a very high standard, situated next door to the owner, but offering a very private setting. At the bottom of the lane is a small river with a ford across to the fields, and there is no through traffic. It lies close to Axminster, an unspoilt Devon market town situated on the River Axe, surrounded by stunning countryside and filled with charm and character. This attractive market town lies in the beautiful Axe Valley, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, boasting quaint villages and unspoilt countryside. Famous for its carpets, the original Axminster factory was opened in 1755 by Thomas Whitty and authentic British ’Axminsters’ are still made in the town by Axminster Carpets. Situated a few miles inland from the Jurassic Coast, guests can visit towns such as Beer, Branscombe, Sidmouth and Seaton with its famous tramway.

    Tucked in the south east corner of Devon, Axminster is an ideal touring centre for the neighbouring counties of Somerset and Dorset, with Lyme Regis and Charmouth just 6 miles away.

    Celebrity chef and TV presenter Hugh Fearnley-Whittingstall has his very first River Cottage Canteen and Deli (an organic produce shop/market and canteen) here, and his River Cottage HQ is nearby in the Axe valley. There are many places to visit close by including many NT properties. This is an ideal spot for walking with a footpath close to the property. The Yarty Valley is a very peaceful area and ideal for bird watching, cycling the country lanes or just relaxing on the patio enjoying views of the river. Shop and pub/restaurant 2 miles (1 mile via footpath).

Our Dog-Friendly Insider Tips for Devon

 

It wouldn’t be a trip to Devon without letting your pup roam free on the beach! Famous beaches include Saunton Sands and Babbacombe Bay, both welcoming dogs all year round.

 

Further inland we recommend the moorlands of Dartmoor for open fields, river valleys and rare wildlife. The sailing town of Salcombe, nestled on the banks of the Salcombe Estuary, is a wonderful dog-friendly day out, featuring golden beaches, charming boutiques, and dog-friendly eateries as well. We also recommend South Hams, one of the most beautiful areas of Devon, with lovely unspoilt villages like Dittisham on the River Dart.

 

You can even opt for a ride in a steam train at Dartmouth Steam Railway or South Devon Railway, taking your dog on board with you.
