With spectacular views of both coast and countryside, this property is sure to take your breath away. Nestling in a wonderfully rural location on a family-run farm, you can be assured complete peace and tranquillity yet an opportunity to truly embrace the charm of rural Devon life. With an onsite multi-gym and indoor swimming pool, you’ll find it hard to drag yourself away, however, the fantastic location this property finds itself in places you perfectly for heading out and exploring all the hidden wonders nearby.

Making your way through the farm, you’re likely to meet one of the resident farm animals - little ones might be particularly excited to catch a glimpse of the sheep, pigs, rabbits, guinea pigs, tortoises, and terrapins. Compact and cosy, yet containing all the home comforts you could possibly need for your holiday - the focal point is most definitely the spectacular view which you can enjoy through many of the windows. The lounge/dining area is open-plan, making for a sociable space from which to cook and feast in the company of your loved ones. Making your way outside, you’ll discover a delightful seating space and BBQ, and head a little further and you’ll find yourself at the indoor heated swimming pool and multi-gym, of which you are welcome to make use of during your stay.

Located just outside of the pretty and sought-after village of Clovelly, you can easily amble your way on down to the enchanting cobbled streets, donkeys, twee tearooms and gorgeous harbourfront - a fabulous spot to while away your days in any season. The Milky Way Adventure Park, with its indoor play area, cafe, and dodgems, is just 2 miles from the cottage and makes for a great day out if you’re on holiday with children. You’ll find yourself centrally located to visit a whole host of beautiful locations; head a little further and you’ll find Westward Ho!, Appledore, Bucks Mills, and Tintagel - all lovely coastal spots.
