Barn in North Devon

Ideally located within a short drive to some of North Devon s finest beaches, Saunton (17.5 miles) and Croyde (19 miles) are popular with surfers and bathers alike. Walkers and cyclists can enjoy the Tarka Trail and walk through the surrounding landscape, stunning in any season. The regional towns of Barnstaple (10 miles) and South Molton (10 miles) are nearby with popular pannier markets. In the height of Summer, a small eco campsite pops up in one of the fields and cream teas are served from the summer house. A pleasant level walk to the village includes a couple of pubs and a community shop from which to stock up on provisions. Other attractions include RHS Rosemoor Gardens (8.5 miles) or Dartington Crystal (33 miles). Experience the thrill of outdoor living from the inside when staying in this holiday home, a property decorated with feature walls that look like the deep depths of woodland scenery. This reverse level accommodation choice benefits from a large open plan space to relax in upstairs and all the sleeping arrangements and bathrooms downstairs. Enter two attractive bedrooms, one king size and one zip and link twin, on the ground floor for an undisturbed night of restful sleep. Both benefit from their own en suite, one with a wet room shower with WC and the other with shower over bath and WC. Loft inspired stairs lead up to the amiable living space in the lounge/kitchen/diner. The entire room is kept cosy thanks to a warming wood burner, and there are plenty of options for sitting soft when night falls. After dinner time, curl up with the Smart TV on to chat pleasantly away or to take in a blockbuster movie. Stepping outside, you can enjoy the patio and garden area with seating and BBQ. After a day s exploring, why not gather around the fire pit and gaze up at the stars in the endless Devon sky, marvelling at the stillness of being away from it all.
