Property code: 90025

Cute to the core, it would be hard to find a more charming and idyllic barn conversion surrounded by tranquil rolling countryside, just moments from the bustling nearby coastline; a serene getaway perfect for tuning back into the natural world around you.

After rambling along the South West Coast Path, fire up the feature wood burner in the open-plan living/kitchen/dining room to soothe tired walking muscles and warm up chilly toes and paws. Hunker down for the evening on the comfortable sofa or plan tomorrow’s adventure at the breakfast bar whilst you prepare a hearty meal with all the local produce you’ve foraged. The neutral décor of the downstairs is carried through upstairs across both serene bedrooms, which feature some stunning original beams and barn-style windows that’ll whisk you away to centuries past. Before bed, wash off sandy toes in the large walk-in shower in the bathroom. Outside, head to the shared patio area or the spacious shared seating area that features a pizza oven and BBQ to dine alfresco in the open countryside. Children will love exploring the shared outdoor play area or battling at table tennis.

Set in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the unspoilt seaside retreat of Hope Cove less than a mile away is the perfect secluded spot to soak up the day’s sun, build sandcastles with the golden sand or take a leisurely swim in the calm crystal waters. Head along the coast to discover the postcard-perfect town of Salcombe just under 4 miles away, boasting a high street packed with shops, restaurants and cafes, plus a wonderful quayside offering panoramic coastal views. From the quay, try out sailing, kayaking, surfing or paddle boarding or board an estuary cruise for the best breathtaking views of a friendly colony of resident seals.

A brilliant place to unwind and relax. This is our second stay and it was wonderful. The facilities and accommodation are brilliant. The Piggery is perfect for a couple and ideal for our four legged friend as well. Wonderful for coastal and beach walks and excellent restaurants and pubs nearby.

Very well appointed cottage in beautiful location. We were blessed with beautiful weather. The shared gated courtyard was lovey to sit out and safe for our dog.

Lots of positives - spotlessly clean, comfortable beds, endless hot water and very easy parking. Unfortunately it wasn't the right place for us, though - with two adults, a teenager and a dog, the living space was just too small and smaller than we had realised from the photos. The second bedroom is also tiny and my daughter couldn't even fit her sRead moreuitcase in there. Would be a great place for a couple to stay. Close to South Milton Beach and lots of lovely coastal walks. Hide
