Moorland Edge sits on the last row of cottages before Ashburton gives way to open moor, making it a popular base for guests planning to walk on Dartmoor. A gate at the bottom of the garden leads straight onto a bridleway.
The cottage has two bedrooms, a snug sitting room with a wood burner and a boot room by the back door for wet coats and muddy boots. It is a simple, practical layout rather than a grand one, built for guests who spend their days outdoors.
Ashburton itself has a handful of pubs, a butcher and a small grocer, enough for a self catering break without needing to drive far. We stock the cottage with local information on moorland walks, including a couple of shorter routes suited to families.
