Surrounded by it’s own private woodland, this stylish farmhouse sits in the rural hamlet of Kentisbury, on the edge of Exmoor National Park. The spacious, five-bedroom property is the perfect base for large families and groups of friends who love exploring the great outdoors. You’ll be surrounded by the stunning North Devon countryside, with an abundance of walking tracks and trails to explore from your front door as well as beautiful beaches close by. Just 0.5 miles away is Wistlandpound Reservoir, where you can enjoy a tranquil stroll in truly breathtaking surroundings, followed by a picnic by the water’s edge. You can also join the South West Coast Path that passes just 5 miles away. Day trips from the holiday retreat include the picture-postcard coastal villages of Lynton and Lynmouth (10 miles), the seaside village of Combe Martin (5 miles), and the surfing hotspot of Woolacombe (12 miles). The National Trust’s Arlington Court is 3 miles away, and for a family fun day, head to Watermouth Castle, 7.5 miles from the farmhouse.

Enter the woodland retreat via the porch and discover a stylish home that’s decorated in natural tones and textures, with lovely artwork adorning the walls, and a beautiful collection of carefully chosen furniture and accessories. After a day of exploring, unwind in one of two inviting lounges, both with plump sofas to sink into and one with a Smart TV for catching up on all your favourite programmes. One of the lounges also has a wood burner for chilly evenings. The social hub of the house is a gorgeous kitchen/diner with sleek units, plenty of worktop space, and a statement beam running across the ceiling. Prepare hearty meals for the group here, which you can share around the large dining table. A contemporary shower room completes the ground floor. Upstairs, five exquisite bedrooms await, all with beautiful furniture, plush linens, and pretty fabrics. Choose from three king-size bedrooms and two twin bedrooms, one of which has an additional daybed. The bedrooms share a fabulous family bathroom and a chic shower room. Rounding off this floor is a snug/games room.
