Until the early 1900’s it was known as “Coleridge” - it is thought to mean the “ridge where coal is made”, a sound conclusion, and once where there were wooded hills, now lie green pastures. It rests along the epic ”Two moors way”, a trail that runs from Devon’s south to north coast – more than an idle wander. For local amenities, Winkleigh lies 4.5 miles west of Coldridge, for access to a comprehensive choice of facilities the market town of Crediton is 9 miles away. The nearest train station is Morchard Road, 4 miles away – this sits along the Tarka Line that twists through some of the scenic parts of Devon, through open country and hidden gorges from the city of Exeter all the way to Barnstaple DESCRIPTION Southmoor House is a most substantial country house situated within a lovely rural yet accessible location. The accommodation is bright and well proportioned with the first floor accesses by two separate stairwells. There are numerous features very typical of a property from that era. ACCOMMODATION From the elegant hall there are three sizable reception rooms, two with fireplaces together with a well appointed farmhouse kitchen. There are 5 bedrooms to the first floor (1 en-suite), a shower and a family bathroom. In addition there is a very impressive dining room with exposed ceiling beams. There is also a bedroom to the ground floor with an en-suite. Many rooms have high ceiling and classic Georgian windows which in turn provide lovely views over the gardens, grounds and neighbouring countryside. Southmoor House makes for a wonderful family home and is excellent for those with an interest in keeping animals. GARDENS AND GROUNDS There is a level lawn and gravel turn circle to the front of the house which in turn provides ample parking and leads to the adjoining garage. There are further lawns behind the property including flower beds, soft fruits, vegetable patch and a small orchard. Immediately adjoining the gardens separated by a post and rail fence a gateway leads directly onto the paddock of approximately 2.4 acres. The outbuilding within the garden provides ample storage as well as 2 enclosed stables. SERVICES Oil, mains electricity, mains water, private drainage.

  • VOLUNTEERS for the TWO MOORS WAY; Devon’S Coast to Coast
    VOLUNTEERS FOR THE TWO MOORS WAY; Devon’s Coast to Coast The Two Moors Way long distance walking route was launched in 1976 and then extended to link the south (Wembury) and north (Lynmouth) coasts of Devon. The distance is 117 miles, crossing two National Parks and unspoilt areas of Devon. Since 2015 a major relaunch is being delivered, including a new guide book, improvements to the track and signage, a comprehensive new web site, a video, leaflets and more to come (e.g. Passports, stamps & certificates). This has been achieved with significant help from Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks, Devon County Council and the National Lottery, working with the Two Moors Way Association (TMWA). We have also had a series of meetings with local accommodation providers, sharing with them the opportunities provided by increasing walker numbers, and listening to their feedback. The role of the TMWA is to monitor that all is well with the Two Moors Way, that; Potential walkers know about all aspects of the route They find the guide book, website, video and leaflets up to date and helpful Any issues with the track, signage and accommodation are being actioned Any wet weather WILL be followed by sunshine! We get a lot of feedback and incur some costs, so we seek to generate income to meet current and future costs. To date, income is from grants (one useful National Lottery Grant) and from sales of TMWA products like badges, guide books, and accommodation adverts. There are plans to do more (like T shirts)! To date, the TMWA has achieved a lot with only 5 part-time volunteers.

  • The Two Moors Way – Itinerary
    The Two Moors Way – Itinerary Day 1 Travel down to Devon. Arrive at campsite – The River Dart Country Park, Ashburton, Newton Abbot, Devon TQ13 7NP. The campsite has a number of exciting facilities that we may be able to enjoy. There is a licensed bar and restaurant on site. www.riverdart.co.uk The rest of the day is at leisure Day 2 Wembury to Ivybridge South Devon provides a gentle introduction to the Coast to Coast Walk. On leaving the coast the walker can enjoy a pleasant exploration of the rolling fields and wooded valleys of the South Hams. The section from Wembury to Ivybridge follows easy and well-signed footpaths and bridlepaths. The way crosses the Yealm and later the Erme, before turning north through beautiful riverside meadows as the path passes close to Ermington, famed for its crooked church spire. Here the first glimpse of the southern slopes of Dartmoor – Western Beacon, rising high above the town of Ivybridge – will give walkers an idea of what lies in store. Approx. 14 miles Day 3 Ivybridge to Scorriton The first section of the official Two Moors Way, and the most testing on the whole route. The old Redlake Railway is followed for 6 miles north, through barren and lonely moorland. The route then traverses open country, crossing the River Avon via a 19th- century clapper bridge and passing Huntingdon Warren, where rabbits were farmed from the mid 13th century to the 1950s. The pretty village of Holne comes as welcome relief! Approx. 12 miles Day 4 Scorriton to Widdecombe A picturesque part of the route, dropping through woodland to cross the Dart at New Bridge (ice cream van at holiday times!).
