Quicks Cottage: A Fairy-Tale Retreat in Dulverton
Tucked away on the Northmoor Road in Dulverton, Quicks Cottage is a picture-perfect retreat along the scenic River Barle. Ideally situated for those who love nature, the property offers easy access to enchanting woodland walks while remaining just a short stroll from the heart of town.
Dulverton, often called "The Gateway to Exmoor," is a delightful market town brimming with character and community. Here, you’ll find a fantastic range of amenities, from independent shops and inviting cafes to popular pubs and excellent local services, including a library, doctors’ surgery, dentist, pharmacy, and school. For further connections, the town of Tiverton is approximately 12 miles to the south, offering swift access to the M5 motorway and Tiverton Parkway station, with direct train services to London Paddington in around two hours.
This one-bedroom character cottage, affectionately described by its owners as a "fairy-tale gingerbread home," dates back to the 1800s and is beautifully presented throughout. A true hidden gem, it boasts an elevated alpine-style garden that provides complete tranquility, seclusion, and breathtaking panoramic views across Dulverton and the Barle Valley. Whether you're looking for a magical Exmoor getaway or an attractive Airbnb investment, Quicks Cottage is a rare find. The current owners have not only cherished their time here but have also successfully let it on Airbnb, receiving glowing reviews from guests.
A Warm and Inviting Interior
Step through the front door into a cosy open-plan living room and kitchen, where rustic charm meets modern comfort. The slate-tiled flooring, exposed ceiling beams, and a wood-burning stove create an inviting atmosphere, perfect for relaxing after a day exploring Exmoor. The well-equipped kitchenette features fitted units, an integrated electric oven with a hob and extractor fan, and an integrated fridge. A door leads to a small covered rear yard, where an outdoor utility room provides additional storage and space for a washing machine.
Upstairs, the spacious double bedroom benefits from a vaulted ceiling with skylights at the front and rear, allowing natural light to flood the space. The en-suite bathroom features a half bath with an overhead shower, basin, WC, and heated towel rail.
An Enchanting Garden with Spectacular Views
Outside, steep stone steps lead from the covered yard to the stunning alpine-style garden. Set over two levels, this private oasis offers a series of seating areas, vibrant herbaceous borders, and a timber garden shed. Whether enjoying morning coffee or unwinding at sunset, the garden provides a serene escape with breathtaking views over the valley.
