  • Situated on the border of Devon & Cornwall providing easy access to some of the area’s finest attractions

 

Property code: 31962

Positioned on the Devon/Cornwall border just 6 miles from pretty seaside town Bude, this hideaway promises a peaceful escape to guests. A two-level barn conversion with a contemporary design, you’ll get the perfect mix of old and new in this bright and airy property. Relax on the huge sofa in the open-plan living area, looking out through the bi-folding doors onto the grounds that includes a beautiful blossoming orchard, or sit out on the decking under the sun parasol in the warmer months.

Step into the property through the patio doors for step-free access and you’re greeted by the stunning double-height ceilings in the living area, with huge windows and a beautiful wooden spiral staircase. The interiors are fresh and light, and the decor offers a blend of coastal and rural life. At night, the living area can be turned into a cosy haven thanks to the folding doors that discreetly hide the kitchen from view. In the evening, head up to bed to the double room that has large open windows at the end, gently waking you from your slumber after a wonderful night’s sleep.

Cycle along the traffic-free Bude Canal and Coast Cycle Route that you can join just 4 miles from the property, taking you on a 5-mile scenic route. If you prefer walking, take a stroll along Sandymouth Beach (9 miles), or the fascinating coastline at Morwenstow (13 miles). There’s plenty to keep kids occupied, including the Milky Way Adventure Park (18 miles) and the BIG Sheep (25 miles), while the historic fishing town Clovelly (18 miles) should keep everyone happy with the friendly donkeys and interesting shops and cafes.

A very well equipped cottage and although compact excellent use of space is made with high quality equipment and furnishings. Very friendly and helpful owners. We had a wheelchair user who found it quite accessible. Its a great base for all the area has to offer. We particularly enjoyed the large garden area. We had a fantastic time.

We spent a relaxing two weeks in this lovely quality and stylish holiday home which was immaculately clean.
