Description

Ambleside is a charming single-storey lodge situated in the serene countryside of Cullompton, Devon.

This pet-friendly retreat features an open-plan design and off-road parking, making it the ideal base for small families or friends looking for a peaceful escape with their furry friend.

Upon entering this single-storey lodge, you will be greeted by an inviting open-plan area, thoughtfully designed to cater to all your needs.

The rustic kitchen is well-equipped, ready for you to prepare your favourite meals, which can be enjoyed at the well-accompanied dining table with seating for four.

After dinner, retire to the plush sitting room, where you can snuggle up in front of the TV and electric fire, perfect for those chillier evenings.

When it's time to rest, choose from two inviting bedrooms; a double with an en-suite featuring a walk-in shower, and a twin room, ideal for children or friends.

There is also a separate shower room, ensuring no morning queues.

Step outside to the decking, where you can enjoy the tranquillity of the surrounding countryside and soak up the Devon sunshine.

The garden also features a lawn, and a gravelled area, along with outdoor furniture, perfect for alfresco dining or simply relaxing with a good book.

Don't miss out on visiting the historic city of Exeter, which is a short drive away and offers a plethora of attractions including the stunning Exeter Cathedral, peaceful Northernhay Gardens and Heavitree Pleasure Ground.

Enjoy riverside dining at the Mill on the Exe after a day of exploring or savour the vintage surrounds at the Cosy Club.

Venture further afield to Exmouth Beach, ideal for family days by the ocean, and delve into history at the magnificent Powderham Castle.

National Trust's A la Ronde is a fascinating 16-sided house to explore, and whet your senses in The Grove's tranquil gardens or unwind in the ancient Bath House.

From culture to nature and food to relaxation, Ambleside offers an unforgettable retreat within easy reach of Devon’s highlights.

This is already really lovely.

I’d just make a few small tweaks so it flows a little more naturally and feels less like a formal review: Writing We absolutely loved our stay and are missing it already. Throwing the curtains back each morning to those glorious views stretching for miles was the perfect way to start the day. You'd never know you were off-grid, as the lodge is so thoughtfully equipped and the owners have genuinely thought of everything. It's an exceptionally comfortable place to stay, spotlessly clean, with incredibly comfy beds, a full-size TV, dishwasher and hot, powerful showers that were a real treat. There were even warm, fluffy blankets for those cooler evenings spent stargazing on the veranda. Wildlife is a common sight, with rabbits, a wonderful variety of birds and deer all around, which really adds to that feeling of escaping everyday life. We also had our dog with us, and he was just as chilled as we were. He loved lying on the veranda, taking in the views across the valley and enjoying all the new rural smells. Cullompton is a peaceful rural base, with a small Tesco and Aldi nearby, but if you're looking for restaurants or more shops, be prepared to travel a little. Lyme Regis and Bridport are both less than an hour away, so there are plenty of options if you fancy exploring further afield. If peace, comfort and beautiful countryside are what you're after, this place is an absolute gem. Even though we were treated to glorious sunshine all week, we imagine the lodge must be just as spectacular in less favourable weather. It's so cosy and comfortable that I can imagine nothing better than being wrapped in a blanket, listening to the rain and simply switching off. We'll most definitely be back!
