Whilst the main house provides generous living space with three bedrooms and two bathrooms, a large living room, dining room, a snug or garden room, utility room and a stunning kitchen/ breakfast room there is also a good size self contained annex that can just as easily be separate accommodation, as it can be integrated within the house. The annex is ideal for those who those who work from home or may wish to earn additional income from letting or Air BnB.STEP INSIDE The large Oak front door opens into a charming, good size dining room which is double aspect to the front and rear. The flagstone floor sets off the room together with the beams and in particular the large cast iron cooking stove that is set into the chimney breast. This is a great room for entertaining friends and family. Doors open into the snug/garden room which is majority glazed with exposed flint and red brick walls, slate floor and amazing views down the garden and the valley beyond.

We’re close to the beach, the train station, Exeter and the M5 all within easy reach, yet it feels like a peaceful world of its own.The house itself was calling out to be loved. It was tired and neglected, full of potential and character. It needed us and we’ve poured care, time, and joy into bringing it back to life. Nearly seven years on, it sings quite literally, alongside the birds that now fill the garden and forest.This home is so much more than bricks and mortar, it’s a way of life. Winter evenings in the hot tub under a frosty, star-filled sky; log fires crackling in the lounge or dining room while we gather for Christmas dinner and quiet mornings with a cup of tea under the holly tree, watching deer wander through the woods.We’ve loved growing our own fruit and vegetables, collecting fresh eggs, and enjoying the company of visiting wildlife including dormice, hedgehogs, foxes, deer, even the occasional pheasant casually strolling past the potting shed. The garden is alive with birdsong and bees, dragonflies flitting over the pond, and the comforting scent of roses as you arrive home.There are memories in every corner: summer days on the deck with family and friends, autumn evenings around the brazier, sports days and hide-and-seek in the garden, breakfasts with Vincent the vole and Peter the pigeon outside the window. The cellar has been a calming retreat for crafts and exercise, while the summerhouse has hosted many happy guests.We’ve enjoyed the balance of countryside and community, with dog walks at the beach, trips with the grandchildren to Haldon Forest Park, and lunches at nearby Kenton Park Estate or Powderham Castle.We’ve always said that Big Friendly Lodge gives you space — space to think, to grow, to be. Whether you want quiet or company, projects or peace, this house welcomes it all. It’s a home that adapts to you.Why are we leaving? Simply because it’s time. We’re getting older, and we want to pass this beautiful home on while it’s still full of life and in great condition, with a happy heart and ready for its next chapter.”** These comments are the personal views of the current owner and are included as an insight into life at the property.
