Property code: WVSTC

One of five barn conversions nestled in the beautiful Devon countryside, this is an undeniably fantastic base for families looking to get away together. You’ll find yourself surrounded by wonderful grounds, boasting an outdoor play area, woodland walks, shared gardens, a games room, a lake which you’re welcome to fish in and even a petting corner home to chickens, goats, pigs and ponies. The charm continues into the cottage with an utterly cosy interior, bursting with country charm.

Stepping inside, the cosy decor is sure to provide a warm welcome. The exposed stone fireplace, with an initial supply of complimentary logs, is the real feature of the ground floor open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Sink into the comfortable sofas, while you warm your toes and settle down to enjoy a film. Cook up meals in the well-equipped kitchen and enjoy it at the farm style dining table and chairs - a really sociable space from which you can all cook, feast and relax in each other’s company. Upstairs, the tasteful palette of whitewashed walls, wooden floors and overhanging beam theme continues to the bedrooms; each with their own sense of character. The spacious family bathroom boasts a bath, perfect for sinking into after a days’ exploring. Outside is where the real fun lies; explore the grounds to your heart’s content, try your hand at pool, indulge in a spot of fishing… the opportunities are endless.

If you’re looking to stay local, you’ll find the ancient village of Holsworthy just 5 miles away - the perfect place to stock up on goodies to cook back at the cottage or enjoy a meal at one of the traditional country pubs. If it’s the seaside you’re yearning for, you’ll find an array of stunning beaches all within easy reach. Bude is just 15 miles away and is well worth a visit for its unique sea pool, long stretch of golden sand, canal and fantastic eateries. Head a little further and you’ll also come to Tintagel - an area lost in time and backed by the utterly unique coastline.

The cottage was lovely and in the perfect location for a family holiday. Down a long track so no passing traffic and the play area and the animals were great for toddler. Lovely circular walk with the dogs with no roads involved. Vicky and Richard are great hosts. Thank you we will be back.

If you want peace and quite this place is for you. The accommodation has everything you need and more. As a complete novice of fishing I caught a fish in the first 20 mins so the little lake is well stocked and no day charge for fishing either. The kids will love the play area and the animals. Couldn't recommend it any more
