Earth Tones is a characterful, Grade II-listed cottage tucked away in the village of Bickington – ideal for a family or friends retreat. The wood burner set in the inglenook fireplace makes for warm and cosy winter evenings, and the generously-sized garden has you covered in summer, with a patio area, picnic bench and a lawn perfect for children to play on. You’ll have the local pub, village shop and bus stop a couple of minutes’ walk away, and the busy market town of Barnstaple at a ten minute drive. Hikers will be spoilt for choice of nearby walking trails, while beach lovers will appreciate the proximity to Instow, a seaside village ten minutes away. The wide surfing beaches of Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe are all easily accessible in under half an hour, as are the glorious high moors, deep valleys and woodlands of Exmoor National Park.
