Magnolia View Rooms & Features

Sleeps 8 in 4 Bedrooms & 2 bathrooms

Situated in the heart of Goodleigh, a pretty North Devon village is Magnolia View Cottage, a four bedroom holiday home accommodating up to eight. This character, North Devon self-catering property is both child and dog friendly and available to rent all year round. The house, which is split over two floors has a wonderful mix of modern day style and character features, and is a great home-away-from-home whatever time of year you visit.

Magnolia View Cottage was built in 1651 and is a Grade 2 listed, 17th century cob Devon long house. Historically it is the second oldest cottage in Goodleigh and spent its early years as the village carpenter’s workshop. Today it is a spacious yet cosy holiday home, which has been tastefully renovated retaining many original features such as wood beams.

Living Room

The dual aspect living room is packed full of character thanks to its wood beamed ceiling and the wonderful wood burner, which is great for those colder winter months. Within the comfy living room is a large L-shaped sofa, a TV with Freeview and a good selection of books and games.

Dining Room

Located off the main entrance hallway is the dining room, which is tiled and has views of the garden. Alongside the large, extendable table, which can comfortably seat eight is an Aga that can be lit on request and a fully working piano.
