Property code: OC-L34468

Immerse yourself in the tranquillity of Devon’s coast and countryside with a stay in this enviable single-storey retreat. Situated on the edge of the vast Exmoor National Park in the village of Berrynarbor, just 1 mile from Watermouth, the property enjoys an elevated position at the top of a steep hill. From here, sweeping views stretch across the patchwork hills that define Exmoor’s undeniable beauty, while woodland walking routes begin right from the doorstep. Sleeping four guests, this peaceful hideaway is ideal for small families or couples seeking extra space to unwind.

Nestled within two acres of woodland in the grounds of the owner’s home, the property feels wonderfully secluded and immersed in nature. Inside, calming, well-arranged rooms are set entirely on the ground floor, including one double bedroom and one twin. The open-plan living space combines a lounge, kitchen and dining area, with a cosy wood burner tucked to one side for cooler evenings. Settle in for a relaxing night in front of the Smart TV, or step outside through the kitchen door onto the private patio. Furnished with outdoor seating and a BBQ, this tranquil space is perfect for wildlife spotting, with deer occasionally passing through. Private parking for one car completes the property’s offering.

In Berrynarbor, a welcoming pub and tearoom are within walking distance (0.5 miles), making an ideal destination at the end of a scenic walk or cycle ride. The beach at Watermouth is a picturesque, lesser-known cove just 1 mile away, offering a quieter alternative to some of North Devon’s more popular beaches, including Combe Martin (2.5 miles) and Hele Bay (2 miles). All of these charming coves are linked by the South West Coast Path, which leads onwards to Ilfracombe (3.5 miles), a lively seaside town full of character and coastal appeal.

We had such a lovely stay at Lee Copse Cottage. A beautifully comfortable cottage with private patch of garden with a fantastic view. Set in beautiful surroundings and ample opportunities for walking, exploring the area, coastal paths and excellent coves. An excellent community shop within walking distance through the picturesque village. ThereRead mores a large tescos under 15min drive away and a pub down the road. Altogether a very peaceful and restful place to stay. Hide

We were a party of three adults and one child of 7 and can highly recommended this cottage. Clean, well equipped, comfortable, restful and with excellent hosts. The welcoming scones, jam and cream were much appreciated! The village is a delight with the church being worth a visit on Sunday morning to watch the bell ringers. Ideally situated, almoRead morest every local beach and attraction is within a 30 minute drive. Hide
