The Old Malt House is a detached period property dating back to the 1800s. It was formerly the stables and outbuildings to the old village Inn - hence the name! - and the garden was reportedly once the village pound, housing the local animals. The property was sympathetically converted into living accommodation in the 1990s, retaining a wealth of original features to include exposed beams, inglenook fireplace and working hand pump for the well, which still exists under the kitchen floor. It has recently been renovated to provide modern comfortable accommodation.

The accommodation is all on the ground floor but there are a number of steps to reach the garden and the front entrance is via an old uneven cobbled courtyard, making it unsuitable for those with restricted mobility. The first floor of the building housing The Old Malt House is used only for storage and thus there is no noise from above. The Old Malt House is accessed from a sunny cobbled courtyard, which is shared with the owners' other property next door. The front door to the property leads straight into the open-plan living area, with a small area for muddy boots and coats immediately inside the front door.

The main living area is open plan, with ample seating, a 50" smart TV, inglenook fireplace with wood burning stove and a dining area and well equipped modern kitchen. A door at the far end of the living area leads into an internal hall, from which both bedrooms and the bathroom are accessed. Unusually for Exmoor, the property is on mains water, meaning excellent water pressure for that much needed hot shower at the end of a wet and muddy walk! A few steps from the kitchen area lead up to the games room and from here there are a few more steps up to an external door opening onto the garden. This is private and enclosed with lovely countryside views, and enjoys all day sunshine.
