Gazing out across the calm East Devon countryside, this Scandi-inspired pod sets the tone for a slower-paced break for two. Located in a rural setting, it suits couples keen on walks, coastal days out and easy evenings, with a traditional pub half a mile away when cooking feels like too much effort.
Take a moment to appreciate the pod's clean-lined exterior before heading inside, where a thoughtfully arranged studio layout combines a kitchenette, dining spot and sleeping area. The kitchen has everything you need for simple meals, whether you eat at the fold-out table or on the private patio. When it's time to turn in, draw back the curtains to reveal a comfortable double bed tucked neatly into the corner. A sleek wet room with a shower and WC completes the interior. On brighter days, make use of the patio, set up for morning coffee or supper beneath the open sky. Beyond this, 20 acres of meadowland invite gentle exploration, with mown paths leading to a quiet pond and orchard – just the place for a picnic. There’s also off-road parking for one car, making arrivals and excursions straightforward.
The pod sits within easy reach of both Exeter and the Jurassic Coast, each around 8 miles away. In Exeter, browse independent shops, dine out, and take in landmarks such as the cathedral and castle. For sea air, head to Budleigh Salterton for a beach picnic and a paddle. Nature lovers can wander through the River Otter Estuary Nature Reserve, home to wading birds, otters and even reintroduced beavers. Keen walkers might tackle sections of the South West Coast Path, while Dartmoor National Park, 19 miles away, promises wide-open landscapes, well-marked trails and its famous free-roaming ponies.
