Lils Cottage, Chulmleigh, is perfectly positioned to explore the best of Devon's diverse landscapes. Located midway between the wild expanses of Dartmoor and Exmoor, with easy access to the traffic-free Tarka Trail, it offers exceptional opportunities for walking, cycling, and river fishing. Quince Honey Farm in South Molton (16 km) provides a fascinating day out with its working honey farm and family-friendly activities. War Horse Valley Country Farm Park in Winkleigh (19 km) offers a glimpse into Devon's rural heritage, set within beautiful countryside and famous as the inspiration for the War Horse story. Nature enthusiasts will appreciate Meeth Quarry Nature Reserve (21 km), with its 150 hectares of rolling landscape, deep water-filled lakes, and breathtaking views. The magnificent Castle Hill Estate in Filleigh (23 km) invites you to explore 50 acres of enchanting landscape surrounding a beautiful 18th-century Palladian house.

For those willing to venture a little further, the boats to Lundy Island from Bideford (31 km) offer access to a remarkable granite outcrop where the Atlantic Ocean meets the Bristol Channel – perfect for walking, climbing, and discovering unique wildlife. Animal lovers should visit the Exmoor Zoological and Conservation Centre in Bratton Fleming (33 km), home to the Exmoor Beast – the only black leopard in the UK. History buffs will be captivated by Tiverton Castle (34 km), a grand medieval fortress with stunning walled gardens and centuries of fascinating history to discover.

There are some great local towns that are definitely worth exploring. The bustling market town of Okehampton is a 28-kilometre drive. Situated on the edge of Dartmoor National Park, there are plenty of walking routes around the town and the castle and Simmons Gardens among the attractions in the town itself. The ancient river port town of Barnstaple is 30 kilometres away. The traditional pannier market is a great place to explore, with a diverse range of stalls and a stunning building. The town is well known for its independent shops and eateries. Both towns offer charming day trips filled with local culture and shopping opportunities.
