If it’s peace, quiet and an escape to nature you’re after, this holiday cottage is perfect for you. The detached property sits within the gorgeous grounds of the owner’s home, with sweeping views of the River Torridge, the little white town of Bideford and the Tarka Trail, all from the privacy of your own hot tub. Sleeping four, it’s great for couples, families or a group getaway, with walking, cycling and water sports all available in the vicinity.
The property, accessed via a separate driveway, opens into an entrance hall which leads into a lounge/kitchen/diner area. The lovely living space has a vaulted ceiling and extensive river views across the valley to the hills beyond, along with a wood burner, comfortable seating and Smart TV with all mod cons, including Netflix. Bi-fold doors lead out to an enclosed, private patio and lawned area, where you’ll find garden furniture, fire pit/BBQ/pizza oven and a private hot tub with stunning views of the surrounding area. The bedrooms, one king-size with en-suite and one twin zip-and-link (which can be made into a super-king on request), are found on the ground floor, while upstairs you’ll find a relaxing mezzanine area, with games and books.
Found on the outskirts of Bideford, you’ll find plenty to do in this lively North Devon location. Enjoy a walk or a bike ride along the Tarka Trail, accessible from Bideford with routes either towards Torrington or Barnstaple, or head the 4 miles to Westward Ho! for fantastic surf - there are surf schools should you need a lesson or two! If travelling with kids, be sure to check out The BIG Sheep (3 miles) and The Milky Way (11 miles) adventure parks.
