Property code: HBEER

Peacefully sitting in 9 acres of land, this wonderfully spacious barn conversion is great for walking, exploring and adventuring enthusiasts. Gazing out over the scenic local countryside is a real treat and one you will look forward to returning to each day. If you prefer relaxing during the days and come to life after sunset, the games room will keep you entertained by providing a fun evening before you sink into bed, enjoying some well-earned rest.

The open-plan configuration of this fantastic home complements the calm, light ambience which flows throughout. Downstairs, the kitchen/diner area is superbly social with an island to welcome all hands on deck and a stylish dining table for communal meals. Overlooking this space, a mezzanine lounge area boasts views of the surrounding hills making it a relaxing place to unwind. Two of the three bedrooms are on the ground floor and are therefore easily accessible, the upstairs bedroom is the largest and all three are tastefully decorated for a tranquil night’s sleep. Two bedrooms enjoy en-suites and, with the additional house bathroom, the home is well-equipped. Spend time in the courtyard garden and dine alfresco or take a cup of coffee outside as you rise in the morning.

South Molton (6 miles away) is home to an abundance of quirky, independent shops and cafes as well as Quince Honey Farm where fun can be had by all. Head into town on market day and feel the buzz of this traditionally rural town. Explore the majestic moors, spot wild ponies and follow winding rivers 18 miles from home on Exmoor National Park or splash in the sea and sand at Westward Ho! and Saunton Sands, both 19 miles away.

Beautiful cottage/barn, hosts where lovely including all the resident animals, the Exeter Inn in the village is worth a visit, great food and atmosphere, also the community store, good range of groceries so worth supporting, we stayed here as we had a wedding at the Tree Top Escapes which itself was amazing, our only negative is the roads in North Read moreDevon can be really narrow and buy a map book, your Sat Nav will get you lost! Otherwise is a beautiful and welcoming place. Hide
