Luxury self-catering accommodation in Chevithorne
Sat right between Exmoor National Park and the Blackdown Hills AONB in North Devon, the village of Chevithorne is a quaint springboard for those in search of both rest and adventure.
Exmoor to the north, the Blackdown Hills to the south and two large and impressive gardens on the peripheries make Chevithorne a destination for both green-fingered folk and hiking enthusiasts. Famed for its impressive collection of oak trees, Chevithorne Barton will tempt dendrophiles to wander the impressive grounds, but be sure to check when the gates open to the public. Three miles towards Tiverton, the National Trust's Knightshayes promises hours upon hours of wanders and picnics.
With Exmoor's cool wild swimming spots within easy reach, spend summer days following rivers through deep, gorge-like ravines, dipping into pools as they emerge beneath the trees. In the cooler months, this often unexplored part of Devon is bursting with thatched inns and tearooms laden with home-baked cakes and steaming pots of loose-leaf tea. For children, Exmoor Zoo, Tiverton Castle and the Devon Railway Centre are guaranteed winners for all ages throughout the year.
