Detached bungalow for sale in The Cabin, Gara Mill, Kingsbridge TQ7

If you love nature, then you will love Gara Mill. The Cabin is one of only nine private holiday lodges at Gara Mill that has been designed to reflect the woodland themes around it, with a palette of forest greens and natural textures. Set in a woodland river valley that once served the old mill building which stands at the entrance, next to an ancient stone bridge. It’s a chance to stop and appreciate nature, to watch the water flowing by, spot the wildlife and breathe.

Gara Mill’s ancient English woodland is populated by oak, beech, sycamore, elder, willow and alder trees. There are rare orchids, blankets of bluebells, purple foxgloves, wild garlic and red campion.

Nocturnal animals particularly depend on these disappearing British habitats: Otters travel the river and owls call and swoop through the night sky. There are bats and moths, brown trout and slow worms, dragonflies and demoiselles.

Wine and dine your guests in comfort in the dining area the fitted kitchen cabinetry and wooden worktops create a bar area too. For the perfect party flow, French doors open out to the garden terrace, an ideal spot for indoor/ outdoor living and al fresco dining.

The perfect space for those leisurely mornings and for chatting as you prepare supper. The kitchen and dining area are arranged in an open plan design, where modern shaker-style cabinetry with solid oak worktops contribute to a very well-equipped and sociable space. The stylish kitchen has integrated appliances, including an oven, hob, extractor fan and built-in fridge.

The main living room is an open-plan living with a smart dining area. It’s sunny and airy with full-length windows and a panoramic forest view. The Cabin is at the top of the river valley, so it drinks in all the light above the trees. A Scandi-style log burner ensures that The Cabin is as welcoming in winter as in the summer.

The Cabin has three beautifully proportioned bedrooms and two bathrooms. The main bedroom has a built-in wardrobe and woodland views. There is a modern shower room ensuite with underfloor heating, a demisting mirror and a heated towel rail. The twin bedroom also has built-in cupboards.

Step out through the glazed doors open to the large sunny deck ideal for dining al fresco, or relaxing with a book and a glass of wine. Afternoon snoozes in this private and relaxed area are seriously recommended.
