Knowstone benefits from its proximity to both the A361 link road, being approximately halfway between Tiverton and Barnstaple, and being close to the Southern West edge of the Exmoor national park. This provides a quiet rural setting yet with excellent transport links: M5 (J27) and Tiverton Parkway mainline railway station both being within 20 miles. The Two Moors Way passes through the village and it is an area known for farming and country pursuits with the National Park on the doorstep providing a fantastic rugged backdrop and the dramatic North Devon coast and surfing beaches within a short distance. Description The Masons Arms celebrates all that is hospitality for the hungry traveller and sits within charming surroundings and a tranquil setting on the fringes of Exmoor in Devon. Historically used for the Masons building, as the church of St Peter sits above the Inn, this Grade II listed inn enjoys all the character of the time with an inglenook fireplace in the main bar, a comfortable lounge with log burner, exposed beams throughout, cob walls and a thatched roof. The building has been well maintained to protect this heritage, while additions in more recent years have been made to compliment this. Highly regarded as a food led venue for many years our clients, Mark and Sarah Dodson, are looking to retire after 45 years in the hospitality industry and 19 years owning and running this picture perfect site. The move to Devon was to raise their family alongside working for themselves with exceptional success. They have been awarded a host of accolades, which includes holding a Michelin star throughout. As agents we are looking to find the next careful proprietors willing to celebrate the heritage and the patronage as much as Mark and Sarah have. History: Whilst there are reports of a building on site as early as the 14th century the building in its current form is believed to be from the 16th century. It is understood its heritage was one of three cottages used by the Church Masons; the earliest record as a public house was in 1840. Charm abounds and in recent years the building has been sympathetically extended, first with a restaurant and then with an extension of the owner accommodation to provide a useful kitchen dining room.
