Brook Cottage is located in a terrific setting overlooking the charming village of Challacombe in Exmoor National Park, offering views of striking rural scenery from both the front and back.
Originally constructed as an agricultural dwelling, two bedrooms were more recently combined into one large double aspect room and a sun-room and downstairs cloakroom added to create what today is high quality, double glazed and well insulated holiday accommodation. There is abundant wildlife in the local area including butterflies, birds (such as regular visitors, housemartins, buzzards, and barn owls), and deer, and Challacombe is connected by footpaths and bridleways to the moorland, making it ideal for walking, riding, cycling, and sightseeing enthusiasts.

There is a cloakroom with WC downstairs. French doors lead from the sitting room to the sun-room that makes the most of the chance to sit and enjoy the lovely view over the combe beyond the garden. A sliding door gives access to a patio that is also reached by french doors at the West end and another sliding door from the dining area.

Upstairs is the large double aspect bedroom with lovely views. It has a King-sized four-poster bed and there is ample hanging space in the wardrobes and a chest of drawers. The bathroom is off the upstairs landing, which has a bath with overhead shower, hand basin and loo. Water heating is electric and controlled by a timer switch on the landing. The second bedroom is only used for storage of laundry and cleaning equipment.

The house is double glazed and well insulated. The wood-burner is very efficient at heating the cottage. Logs are provided; the log store is to the right of the front door. Plug in electric heaters are provided for additional heat should you require them. Please bear in mind that on chilly days, the best means of keeping the house cosy is the log burner.

There is a 32" TV with a Firestick giving Internet TV access.
