Superbly situated in the heart of the Blackdown Hills, Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty in East Devon. Otter Rise is a pretty, single storey, detached cottage nesting into the hillside near the head of the Otter Valley. Newly refurbished throughout and finished to a high standard, with views of the glorious East Devon countryside from all windows.

An ideal base for exploring the beautiful beaches of Devon and the nearby Jurassic coast, the rugged beauty of Dartmoor or the many lovely walks and cycle routes right on the doorstep.

Otter Rise feels well off the beaten track, yet is within easy reach of the cathedral city of Exeter and the market towns of Honiton and Taunton. Or maybe you’ll just want to relax and enjoy the view, in the heart of this natural paradise.

OTTER RISE

Our Forces Family

Many of the renovations at Otter Rise have been developed with serving and former armed forces personnel and their families in mind and we aim to make things easily accessible and as ‘user friendly’ as possible for those who may have limited mobility and specific needs.

With Chris having served for 21 enjoyable and rewarding years with the Royal Marines, we are keen to ‘give something back’ and are pleased to be able to offer discounted rates to serving and former members of the armed forces. Please contact us for more detail.
