Set within the calm serenity of East Devon’s Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this cottage is an intriguing blend of traditional and stylish. This unique self-catering barn conversion is idyllically set in the grounds of a former farm, not far from the Jurassic coast, in the much-adored Blackdown Hills. Journey the many local footpaths and relish the tranquillity of ending your day in a hot tub surrounded by Devon’s stunning scenery.
Traditional features such as deep-set windows and vaulted ceilings give this home an abundance of character and warmth. Clean and comfortable, much care has gone into creating a space where every guest feels welcome and at ease, from the plush sofas to the inviting hot tub in the back garden. Wake up to panoramic countryside views and sit down for breakfast together in the wholesome kitchen/diner. A shared games room and a wide choice of board games are sure to keep everyone entertained. Warmer evenings can be spent dining outside, making use of the BBQ and admiring a night sky that is almost free from light pollution.
This cottage is set in the Blackdown Hills, which boasts many fascinating sites that provide a glimpse into the area’s rich history, from iron-age hillforts to Second World War airfields. Follow in the footsteps of whetstone miners and take a walk through Blackborough, marvel at the mines and uncover some superb views.
