 Gallant Fox
Drewsteignton, Devon.,United Kingdom
This stunningly converted Regency carriage house on the edge of the estate is named after the family's triple crown winning horse Gallant Fox. Down a ½-mile private drive, on a captivating corner of Dartmoor, the property is pleasantly secluded but centrally located within easy reach of Devon's beaches, just minutes to the A30 and ten minutes into the cathedral city of Exeter. Gallant Fox is the perfect spot for exploring Dartmoor, Devon and Cornwall. Cosy up in front of the log fires in the equestrian stable panelled `polo lounge' with comfortable deep sofas and family games; the perfect mixture of simple rustic country furniture and fine antiques, canopied and carved beds, with sumptuous pools of chintz, tweed and tartan in canopy, cushion and curtain. Generous attention to detail has been paid throughout; a children's nook and cranny treehouse bedroom, an enclosed well stocked cottage garden with play/game area, a secret shepherd's hut in the bluebell woods overlooking the fenced stream. Gleaming polished oak floors, exposed stone, farmhouse country kitchen/dining-room and love of horse and hound throughout - an unashamedly romantic and comfortable getaway.
