Escape to rural Devon, where this spacious and characterful cottage provides the perfect backdrop for family gatherings and special occasions. Part of a small complex of three holiday cottages next to the owner’s working farm, this dog-friendly property offers ample accommodation for up to eight guests. Perfectly poised between the Cornish coast and Dartmoor National Park, fill your days with seaside strolls and moorland hikes. Then hurry home for sociable meals and evenings bubbling beneath the stars.

Wrapped in a fully enclosed garden and patio, this two-storey cottage has plenty of space for kids and dogs to run free. Inside, the harmonious blend of rustic charm and contemporary flair combine to create a warm, inviting atmosphere, with everything you need for a comfortable stay. With three large sofas arranged around a TV and a wood burner set in a feature fireplace, the lounge sets the scene for memorable evenings. Next door, a pool room promises laughter-filled nights challenging your travelling companions. The spacious, country-style kitchen is well equipped for feeding your crowd, while a farmhouse-style dining table promises fun evening meals. The entertainment continues outside with a picnic table and a BBQ for al fresco feasts, and a hot tub for stargazing and relaxing. When night falls, head upstairs to find four spacious and comfortable bedrooms. Choose between two king-size bedrooms, each with private en-suites, and two twin rooms which share the family bathroom.

Guests have access to a shared games room and a paddock for exercising the dogs, or you can set off on foot to explore nearby walks, including Cockworthy Forest (4 miles). Venture to the market town of Okehampton to stock up on local produce at the weekly market or browse independent shops and eateries. The town acts as a gateway to Dartmoor National Park, while the opposite direction takes you to the Cornish coast and the award-winning beaches and spectacular surf of Bude (18 miles).

We had a fabulous holiday, helped by the weather. The owners are on hand if you need them but not at all intrusive. The cream tea and doggie treats on arrival were very much appreciated.

An absolute gem of a find. If you have dogs and/or kids it would be hard to fine somewhere more ideal in this type of location. And for those without kids or dogs it is kept immaculately. The games room in the cottage not only has a super pool table but is kitted out with tons of games, for indoor and outside use. The shared games area and paddock Read moreare a great additions. All rooms are spacious with very little wear, including the bathrooms and en-suites, plus everything works. Kitchen is very well equipped. The owners are attentive without being intrusive, they obviously take great pride in their business. The complimentary cream tea went down a treat with everyone. I am a very reluctant reviewer but on this occasion found compelled to do so. 6 adults, 2 kids and 3 dogs...Perfect! Hide

My family, the dog and I have just returned from a week long easter break at Fern Gully. What a wonderful place it is. The position of it is what first strikes you - on arrival we were met with the quintessential rolling countryside views to the rear. Inside the cottage is extremely spacious and very clean and well equipped. Its like every little tRead morehing has been thought of from the welcome cream teas to the well stocked games room. Personal highlights for me were the log fire, the hot tub, the childrens book collection for bedtime stories and the overall attention to detail. I liked how the garden was fully enclosed so we could let the dog out and not have to worry. The all important internet for the kids games and Netflix was up to task. The owners popped by on the first morning to make sure everything was ok and they were really friendly. Overall the whole experience was super chilled and really like a home from home. Id be happy to go back and would recommend to anyone looking to take a family break. Hide
