Spend special time together as a family when you arrive at this splendid barn conversion in South Devon. Sleeping six guests, the three-bedroom retreat could also be perfect for a party of couples seeking a high level of comfort for their break. Situated on a working dairy farm, which is known for its award-winning ice-cream parlour, the single-storey holiday home is 5 miles from Exeter and 11 miles from the coast at Dawlish Warren.

Wander inside to find chic, airy accommodation with ample space for everyone. The lounge, which is filled with natural light, is an ideal space for your holiday games or for unwinding together in front of a good film on the Smart TV. Open the French doors to your private courtyard in here on fine days. The lounge flows into the impressive kitchen/diner, with its high vaulted and beamed ceiling. Here, you can cater for your party in the stylish kitchen area, with its island, then gather at the table to dine in style. As the day draws to a close and it is time to rest and recuperate, make your way through to your lovely bedrooms. These include two king-sizes and one twin. One of the king-sizes has an en-suite shower room and there is a family bathroom for the other guests to share. Sip a cup of tea out in the courtyard after each exciting trip out. Take the children off to play in the meadow or have fun in the play area. There is parking here for two cars.

Explore beautiful Dartmoor from the barn. Venture 8 miles to see its magnificent Canonteign Falls, where any youngsters in your party can tackle the adventure playground. Head 9 miles to hop aboard a ferry to take you over the River Exe to colourful Exmouth Marina.
