Duke Cottage, The Village, Milton Abbot...

Location

Milton Abbot is a pretty village approximately six miles from Tavistock, there is a public house and a very well regarded primary school. The village has a lot going for it... The Milton Abbot community group organises fun trails for children at Easter/Halloween, there is an annual 'Big Bash' village party on the village green in the summer, which is a continuation of the ancient Cherry Fair festival. The village hall hosts events organised by local people including indoor horse racing evenings (like a giant board game!) and the Village Show each September which is a great community event. 

Tavistock is a thriving 'stannary' and award winning market town on the western edge of Dartmoor National Park. With regular farmers' markets and a large variety of independent shops and cafes, the town is rich in history dating back to the 10th century and is famed for being the birthplace of Sir Francis Drake.  The area offers a full range of schools both State and Private with Plymouth being only 15 miles away with fast rail links into London, Bristol and the North. Tavistock offers a range of leisure facilities including a swimming pool, squash and tennis clubs and golf course.

Situation

The property sits opposite the church, close to the village hall and also within easy level walking distance of the Edgcumbe Arms Public House and the well regarded Milton Abbot County Primary School. The property is in the catchment for Tavistock College and there is a School bus to and from provided for free by the local authority. An alternative option is a funded local authority taxi to the closest (non-catchment) Launceston College.

Entrance porch, spacious living/dining room with original flagstone floor and a log burning stove, breakfast kitchen. The original staircase is a beautiful feature and leads up to the two double bedrooms and shower room. The outbuilding has a vaulted ceiling and houses a utility and WC.
