  • With a south-facing sun deck, providing glimpses of the sea

Property code: OC-BARNH

This delightful barn conversion located next door to the main house, with views across farmland, the property has a warm and cosy feel, making it the perfect base for a couple’s break to the beautiful North Devon coast.

Inside, the barn has been stylishly decorated and furnished throughout, benefiting from oak and tile flooring, underfloor heating and exposed beams. Step from the private driveway, through stable doors, and into the spacious entrance hall, leading into the open-plan kitchen/dining area with a fully fitted kitchen, and a TV. Thoughtful design means there is plenty of space for preparing meals on the granite work surfaces to enjoy around the dining table or alfresco. The super-king-size bedroom with an additional day bed and a Smart TV is on the ground floor, as is a wet room with a Croyde-themed shower – handy for those who are less mobile on stairs. A stylish oak staircase leads from the kitchen/dining area up to the living room above. Countryside views and sea glimpses can be enjoyed from the comfy seating within or by opening the full-width, bi-fold doors and stepping out onto the south-facing patio – the perfect spot for morning coffee or an evening drink. There is a separate enclosed patio with steps down to the front of the barn/driveway.

There is now an EV charger located on the side of the boiler room which requires a Type 2 cable

The Barn is extremely well fitted out. The only negatives are: if you have a large car which I have someone has to be on the road to stop traffic to enable several attempts to position car. The instructions to look for the sign "Wayside'' are no help when approaching from Croyde.

Positives: Nice building; good base; Croyde and Georgeham are quaint, the people friendly, and the pubs good. Negatives: walking (especially with a dog) is a bit hairy due to the narrow lane with no footpath, and there is quite a lot of traffic). The barn is only dog friendly in the kitchen - they're not allowed in the upstairs lounge. We fell shRead moreort of barricading the bottom of the stairs to stop her from following us, because that wouldn't be acceptable and she would have thought she was being punished. So we stayed in the kitchen. She couldn't use the external steps either because they are open iron work. I'm pressing yes on 'would i recommend ' - but only if you're a couple looking to use as a general base. Hide

Such beautiful accommodation with everything of the highest standard. We stayed during a week of hot weather and loved being able to open up the wall of windows in the lounge. The road is quite busy but, with care, its possible to walk into the village. A lovely property.

Beautifully furnished, modern property, very clean, spacious and airy for a one bed, much bigger than many two bed properties we have stayed in.. Lovely big bedroom with a huge comfy bed. The kitchen is spacious, sufficiently stocked with good size fridge/freezer. The property is "end" onto the road with a short walk into Croyde Village (10 mins) Read moreor Georgeham (10/15mins uphill), however there are no pavements into croyde so caution needed. If you have a dog, its worth noting the back garden is open and part shared with the house next door so its hard to stop them wandering. There are also open metal steps leading down from the patio area to the driveway and the road. Our dog did not like the metal steps so avoided them anyway but it could be a little issue for a more adventurous dog. That said we loved the property and would highly recommend. Hide
