Details for Chinkwell Tor in Devon, England

Chinkwell Tor is one of the latest and last cottages to be converted at Holwell. Chinkwell was originally the kennels for the farm and estate. Located in the upper yard level, it is enclosed by a granite wall and has a sheltered lawned garden outside the front door. It's elevated position affords great views over the roof of Hay Tor cottage below to Ripon Tor in the distance. A large entrance hallway - ideal for lots of muddy boots, coats and soggy dogs ! opens up into a corridor leading to two ground floor bedrooms and family bathroom and a large open plan kitchen/living/dining room. Upstairs there is a spacious 'loft style' bedroom suite comprising ensuite bathroom and dressing area. Together with Saddle Tor next door, these two cottages together are ideal for larger gatherings as they are separated off from the other cottages and share their own drive. Between them they can accommodate up to 14 guests.
