Situation

Cherrywood Cottage is located just off the charming village green in the Dartmoor village of North Bovey. It is set at the top of a lane which leads down to walks alongside the River Bovey and a footpath that leads into the hills of Dartmoor. North Bovey has a Parish church, an excellent pub which is just 50 metres away, a village hall and it is only a comfortable 25 minute walk to the superb amenities available at The Bovey Castle hotel. The bustling moorland town of Moretonhampstead is only a ten minute drive where there is a wide range of day to day and specialist shops, a Primary school and pre-school, pubs and cafes. The A30 and A38 dual carriageways are equidistant at about 10 miles, and Exeter can be reached along the B3212 in about 15 miles.
