This property has high eco credentials having been converted in 2007 with a state-of-the-art solar and wood-powered heating system, with logs grown sustainably on site. Broadhembury, voted the most beautiful village in Devon, is only 5 miles away and boasts an amazing pub and pretty circular walks. Just 8 miles away is the market town of Honiton, boasting an array of shops, cafes, pubs and restaurants.
