This large, spacious, early 1900’s detached house stands alone in 40 acres with outstanding views across the wooded valley of the River Barle and Exmoor National Park. Just half a mile from the delightful village of Withypool with its excellent pub, there are fantastic doorstep walks to the village, the high moorland and along the river. Riding here is unsurpassed and Holmbush offers DIY private stabling and grazing (to be arranged with the owner). This is an extremely roomy, no frills family holiday base with lovely views from most of the rooms, and is a haven of peace and privacy in this glorious part of Exmoor. Words and pictures cannot do this exceptional location the justice it deserves.

Accommodation:
Entrance hall, with access beyond to thechairs and a further table and chairs. Sitting/playroom with TV/video and some children’s videos and board games. Downstairs cloakroom with basin and adjoining WC. The extensive kitchen is divided into main kitchen, pantry, walk-in larder and utility room.

En-suite bathroom with bath (no WC), oil filled radiator and electric wall fire. Two further twin bedrooms and a single room all with 3ft beds. An excellent ‘dormitory’ bedroom with 3 beds (ideal for children). The main bathroom has an original roll-top bath with claw feet, shower cubicle, large basin, WC, oil filled radiator and electric wall fire. Further bathroom with bath, basin and WC. (Due to water pressure, all 3 baths cannot be run at the same time, but there is plenty of hot water).
