Quietly and privately set in the midst of its own land, Lodgeworthy Farm is only a few minutes from the centre of the village of Bridgerule, which benefits from a pub, village stores, church and chapel. The nearest town, Holsworthy which lies some five miles the north-east and has a thriving weekly livestock and pannier market, together with a good range of shopping, banking, schooling and recreational facilities.  The Cornish seaside town of Bude is a ten minute drive away and offers fantastic surfing opportunities with lovely walks along the rugged coastline. Bude can be found just off the A39 ‘Atlantic Highway’ which also links to the larger town of Barnstaple and its  mainline railway station. Launceston is half an hours drive to the south and provides a further range of shopping, banking and recreational facilities together with a link to A30, Exeter and the M5 beyond.


Introduction
Approached through a pair of impressive wrought iron gates, the long private entrance drive leads to the courtyard, farmhouse and farm buildings.

Sitting at the heart of the farm, the traditionally built farmhouse offers good sized family accommodation and retains many of its original character features such as slate floors and an inglenook fireplaces. Complimented by an oil fired Aga in the kitchen and night storage radiators to many of the rooms, together with a double glazed conservatory. There is a lovely private lawn and shrub garden to the rear of the property with ample parking and garaging to the front.

The small range of stone and cob barns form a loose L shape around the farmhouse and could be used for equestrian purposes, although they have much potential for conversion to ancillary accommodation/holiday lets, subject to the necessary planning consents.  The modern farm buildings are conveniently located a short distance from the farmhouse and offer versatile livestock accommodation together with ample fodder and machinery storage.
