A simply beautiful country house, this spacious 5-star property can accommodate parties of up to 24 guests for a very special break. Inside the property has been lovingly styled in an elegantly timeless fashion with well-chosen furnishings and chic understated decor, whilst the outside space is equally appealing with a sumptuous hot tub and an amazing BBQ hut.

The owners of this property seem to have thought of everything: from the nine-seater hot tub in the 1.5-acre garden to the fantastic games room with a pool table, Smart TV, Xbox 360 games console, and its own bar. Two separate lounges ensure that there is plenty of space for everyone to relax and unwind, whilst 2019 sees the addition of a cinema room. The dining room has two large tables seating all 24 guests, whilst those seeking a quiet corner will be glad of the small library. For those with an even larger party, there is a separate property on the estate which can only be booked alongside this one. Sleeping seven, the cottage boasts four bedrooms (two doubles, one twin, and one single), as well as a kitchen/diner, lounge, bathroom, shower room, and an extra WC.

Situated on the outskirts of Barnstaple, 2 miles from the town centre with its shops, restaurants, leisure centre, and theatre, this property is in a great position for those who like to be close to local amenities.

Excellent house for a large family gathering. In our case 8 adults and 8 children. Brilliant gardens for the kids and a great hot tub used throughout the holiday by all. Other facilities - cinema room and games room/pub were also a boon, particularly as it was unseasonally wet. During the dry spells the badminton and croquet were well used. The houRead morese is massive and fitted with substantial furniture appropriate to the style and age of the house which the kids could be let loose around. Hide

Excellent property for a large family gathering. Both children and adults loved the garden. The garden is very private, sunny and with some beautiful plants. The hot tub was popular, also the BBQ area. The property was well located for us on the edge of Barnstaple. For us, the week's weather was so good that we went to the beach every day and we neRead morever had time for the cinema room or ride bikes. Some of the group played golf at Portmore Golf Course just up the road. Hide
