Tencery Cottage is situated in the heart of the village of Dunkeswell in the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The old established village of Dunkeswell, a designated Conservation Area, has a pretty parish church and there is a shop as well as several other amenities in the nearby 'new' village. There is also a bus service that provides regular access to Honiton and Taunton.
Honiton lies about 5 miles to the south and is particularly well known as an antique and book centre, as well as
having most of the usual multiples such as Smiths, Boots, Tesco and a variety of independent shops, restaurants, schools, sports centre/swimming pool, golf club and main line rail link to London (Waterloo). Honiton has excellent communication facilities with a dual carriageway to the Cathedral City of Exeter, the county town, some 22 miles to the west. Exeter has an excellent shopping centre as well as schools, sporting facilities, theatres, main line rail link to London Waterloo and Paddington,
international airport and M5 access. The county town of Taunton is approximately 16 miles to the north where direct access to the M5 can be gained, together with express train to London Paddington. Express trains to London can also be found at Tiverton Parkway some 10 miles distant. The coast at Lyme Bay is about 14 miles to the south.

The pretty private walled rear garden has been laid with artificial grass and has a small timber deck area which provides a perfect place to sit outdoors during fine weather. To the front is a larger than average garage and workshop with mezzanine storage, power and light. A driveway provides off-street parking for a couple of vehicles.
