LOCATION: Lake View Barn enjoys a rural setting in the heart of the Devon countryside, conveniently positioned between Junctions 27 and 28 of the M5, offering an excellent balance of country living and accessibility. Surrounded by rolling countryside and within easy reach of the Blackdown Hills National Landscape, the area is ideal for those who appreciate open spaces, walking, riding and the quieter pace of rural life.
The nearby village of Kentisbeare has a welcoming community and a range of everyday amenities, including a village shop, public house, primary school, church and village hall. The neighbouring market towns of Cullompton, Tiverton and Honiton provide a wider selection of shops, supermarkets, schooling and leisure facilities.
For commuters and those travelling further afield, Tiverton Parkway railway station is approximately five miles away, offering regular mainline services to London Paddington and other major destinations. The M5 provides convenient connections towards Exeter, Taunton and Bristol, while Exeter itself offers an extensive choice of shopping, restaurants, cultural attractions and educational facilities.
The area is particularly well served for schooling, with Kentisbeare Primary School nearby, secondary education available at Uffculme School, and the highly regarded independent school Blundell's in Tiverton, together with its preparatory school, St Aubyn's.
