Devon Holiday Cottage for two in England.

The Count House holiday cottage.

The Count House is a Devon holiday cottage situated in the beautiful sheltered valley of the river Tamar, six miles from the ancient market town of Tavistock, in Devonshire, which is in the South West corner of England.

The Tamar Valley, with its outstanding scenery, which has been designated as an 'Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty' forms the boundary between Devon and Cornwall. The holiday cottage is in an ideal location for exploring Dartmoor National Park, the North and South Devon and Cornwall coastlines, with their spectacular cliffs and popular beaches, and Bodmin Moor. Information is provided giving details of the many places of interest, historic sites, pubs, restaurants, theatres and sports facilities.

The Count House was formerly the mine office of the 'Devon Great United' copper mine, and the local area abounds in remains of interest to the industrial archaeologist. The holiday cottage itself provides an ideal retreat for country lovers, and for anyone wanting a quiet, restful holiday.

The self contained accommodation has been decorated and furnished to a high standard. It is centrally heated and comfortable, even the bathroom is warm! The lounge has a woodburning stove, and colour TV. The well equipped kitchen is fully fitted with electric cooker, fridge and automatic washing machine. The one bedroom has a double bed, and an extra single bed can be provided for the lounge if required. A lobby has space for outdoor kit. The large garden is a real sun trap, facing south, and is sheltered from most cold weather in the winter. Electricity, logs, bedlinen (duvets) and towels are all included in the rent.
