Description: About Apple Loft
Romantic Retreat in the Blackdown Hills with lovely country viewsApple Loft is a very chic romantic bolthole with lovely tree top views over the surrounding Devonshire hills. Surrounded by an area of outstanding natural beauty, where the sense of peace and tranquillity is a far cry from the pace of modern living, Apple Loft is easily reached by one of the main routes into the West Country and is perfect for short breaks or longer holidays all year round.
The apartment is entered via a ground floor lobby with plenty of storage space and an attractive Victorian washstand. A flight of stairs leads to the open plan apartment above. At one end French windows open onto the glass fronted balcony and the comfy sofa has been positioned to make the most of this stunning view. Space has been set aside for a dining table with ladder back chairs and the contemporary galley kitchen is very well equipped. A fine antique iron bedstead dressed with crisp white linen and a pretty quilt dominate the romantic sleeping area where quirky touches have been included with the boat steps doubling for storage, a vintage leather suitcase holding hangers and, screened for privacy and for the sheer fun of it, a slipper bath to luxuriate in. There is an en-suite bathroom with relaxing rain shower, toilet and basin.
Located in the beautiful Blackdown Hills, an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the Jurassic Coast is also within easy reach, just half an hour’s drive away.

Honiton is a super market town! Situated on the Eastern side of Devon, Honiton is renowned for its huge number of antique shops. On Tuesday and Saturdays there is a street market up and down the main high street. At the eastern end of the town, you can find the Honiton Lace shop and museum. Queen Victoria's Christening gown was made of lace made in Honiton. Also, Honiton Pottery has its own shop in the town where visitors can purchase original pieces.
For dining out, The Holt is a fantastic pub and the western end of the town. This 'gastro-pub' offers a great selection of real ales (produced by the Ottery Brewery who are based on the Blackdown Hills) and a great menu for either lunch or an evening meal. Also, the Boston Tea Party is a characterful coffee house which serves freshly prepared sandwiches, great coffee and a delious selection of cakes!!. Honiton is well worth a visit for a short cottage break or longer stay at any time of year!
The beaches of south and east Devon are within easy distance, there are National Trust houses with magnificent gardens to visit, a donkey sanctuary and much more.
