SITUATION Dove Cottage is peacefully situated in the centre of popular Cornworthy, a well-kept and attractive village, surrounded by beautiful countryside. There is a very active Village Hall and a thriving local Inn, renowned for its friendliness. Cornworthy is approached by country lanes, yet lies within easy reach of Dartmouth (8 miles), perfect for sailing enthusiasts. The historic town of Totnes is about 6 miles and offers a great range of independent shops, main- line station and recreational and educational provision.
DESCRIPTION Dove Cottage is a very pretty traditional two-bedroomed period village cottage, possibly dating from the 17th Century or earlier with numerous character features including low beamed ceilings, window seats and planked doors. This cosy cottage requires modernization and improvement and such properties are increasingly hard to find. There is a lovely landscaped garden with potential to further enhance, and the benefit of parking.
To conclude, Dove Cottage is something of a little gem. A character cottage with plenty of scope in a desirable South Hams village.
