Skylark (number 1 on the site map) is one of 8 self-catering south-facing cottages at Moor and Sea with beautiful views over Exmoor and calm and restorative interiors.
Skylark is a stone-built single-bedroom  end of terrace cottage with a beautifully designed open-plan living area and dining area with picture windows overlooking the gardens and moor.
​The light and airy living area is furnished in gorgeous natural materials with an armchair and comfy sofa bed (we can also provide mattress toppers on request for an even more luxurious sleep). There are maps, guidebooks and games on the bookshelves. The tv is set up with amazon prime and Netflix. To the other side is a thoughtfully designed dining snug, comfortably seating at least four, with soft cushions.. a perfect place to enjoy a meal, play games or simply put your feet up and enjoy the views and everchanging skies over Exmoor. The living area opens onto the thoughtfully designed kitchen which is well equipped with an oven, grill, ceramic hob, fridge microwave, cafetière, hand blender and all the pots, pans, plates, bowls and cutlery you could need with a window onto the bird-filled Devon wall and hedging. We also provide local teas and coffee and there is olive oil, salt and pepper and sugar for your use. A spacious double bedroom provides a calm and peaceful sanctuary with soft French linen or high quality cotton bedding, a green vista of natural planting and a Devon hedge. Sleep soundly and wake up to birdsong.
Skylark  has a walk-in shower room with natural slate flooring. We provide plenty of fluffy towels, toilet rolls, kitchen paper, and cleaning products, all are high quality with good eco credentials.
​Outside, on the private terrace, there’s seating surrounded by lovely planting. Perfect for a summer breakfast outside or wrap up in one of our blankets enjoying a glass of wine or a warm drink under the velvety dark starlit skies of Exmoor.
​There is super fast wifi throughout and we have two EV chargers on site as well as plenty of parking and all of our cottages are easily accessible.
​Skylark is one of our dog-friendly cottages. For our four-legged guests, we have cosy fleece blankets, bowls, and complimentary eco-doggy bags. Skylark is near to the entrance to our field surrounded by stunning views with space to run and play.
​There is a utility room on site for our guests to use with a chest freezer, two washing machines, two driers, airers, irons, and ironing boards. Detergent and softener are provided so there is no need to bring your own. The utility room also has a well-stocked lending library with books for all ages, indoor games and puzzles, and a good selection of outdoor games to use in the fields.
​We have a light and airy art room with a basic stock of art materials for our guests to use freely from May to September. During the quieter months it is sometimes in use for art courses so may not be available, please ask on booking if interested.
Please note the basic price per night is based on two people sharing the double bed. There is an additional cost for use of the sofa bed and for extra people up to 4 staying.

Skylark Cottage Moor and Sea, beautiful views over Exmoor

Beautiful, very clean accommodation, furnished and finished with great attention to the smallest details. Beautiful wall art. Everything you need is there. Very nice view, private terrace and a large field behind the house where you can wander and always find a place to sit. From here you can walk to Lynton, a very nice walk. The garden and fields are very well maintained and the surroundings are truly lovely. Southwest Coast path, Valley of Rocks, everything is within walking distance and your walk starts beautifully. Recommended!

We had a wonderful 3 days at Richard Suckling’s pastel painting workshop.  Moor and Sea offers very comfortable and stylish accommodation and a warm welcome from Bridget and Richard.  The unseasonably wet and snowy weather prevented us from exploring the coastal paths.  However, the light and well equipped art  room enabled us  to create our own beautiful scenes in pastel with Richard Suckling’s expert guidance. Bridget ensured that we were kept energised with the tastiest gluten free cake and a sumptuous homemade lunch. We had a very relaxed, happy and productive weekend and can’t wait to book the next one!

Inspiring weekend with painting friends!

We loved our stay in the cottage as it is very well furnished. Our dog , a golden retriever appreciated the  field to run! We were in family with our 15 years old son and the place was big enough . The kitchen is as well as at home , we did a great barbecue 
We even enjoyed some board games
