Property code: OC-53068

A bright and welcoming barn in South Devon, the ideal place to return to after days of adventure or simply stay in for lazy days of pure indulgence. Fabulous furnishings and spacious rooms are just two of the many notable features this home boasts. Relax beneath the vaulted ceilings while the wood burner crackles and the sounds of chatter and laughter fill the room. This cottage promises the wholesome getaway you’ll remember forever.

Charming decorations and neutral tones echo the surrounding landscape. The kitchen is truly the heart of this home, stylishly designed with a range-style electric oven and hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave and coffee machine for you to make use of. Around the other side of the brick wall is the living area, where you can dine together at the large table or lounge on the roomy corner sofa. Bury yourself under the duvet of one of the four divine bedrooms and get the sleep you deserve so you wake up fresh for a woodland walk. Outside there’s a wonderful garden with fantastic views and everything you need to enjoy a BBQ. Off-road parking for four cars.

Set on the outskirts of the picturesque village of Payhembury, this home is in a fitting location for exploring the Jurassic Coast, Dartmoor, and the charming Cathedral city of Exeter. Book tickets to watch Exeter Chiefs play rugby at Sandy Park, or perhaps a trip to Pebblebed Vineyard might be more to your taste. Although there are plenty of activities beyond this property, the owners also invite guests to involve themselves in farm life; whether that be collecting their own eggs for breakfast or busying themselves in the lambing shed. The farm is also home to the village cricket club, with a pitch for hire and a bar and BBQ on match nights; there is entertainment right on the doorstep.

The barn is beautiful with a well equipped kitchen, stunning living space and comfortable bedrooms. We were welcomed with a generous cream tea and mesmerised by the busy house martins feeding their young just outside the window. We couldnt have asked for more and will hopefully return.
