A lifestyle change is often the key to moving when considering your new home. Orchard Gate is really the epitome of this concept and has the majority of those changes that the modern buyer often seeks. Being located away from major conurbations for a slower pace of life is normally top of the list closely followed by a short walk to the local pub, butchers and shop. The village of Dolton has all this on offer and much much more. Countryside walks and fresh air is also very important which is where Dolton comes into its own. Halsden Woods nature reserve with walks following the river Torridge is on close hand to satisfy those needs as well.

Dolton is ideally positioned to enjoy the best that the area has to offer. RHS Rosemoor, a wonderful place to visit and explore is close at hand as well as The Plough arts centre and theatre in the pretty market town of Great Torrington. From here you can explore Torrington Commons, 365 acres of countryside allowing for miles of scenic walks with access to the locally renowned Tarka trail. A scenic footpath / cycle way mainly built on the bed of a disused railway where the gradients are gentle. It winds its way following the course of the river Torridge as far North as Ilfracombe or going inland South towards Meeth. Ticking boxes aside, it is in my experience that the feel of the home is what will make you buy it.

Only by visiting Orchard Gate you will know if it is "the one". I strongly urge you to take the time to experience it for yourself and would love the opportunity to meet with you there to help embed what you see on paper in the flesh.
