Nestled in the countryside 4 miles from vibrant market town South Molton and part of a complex that can be booked to accommodate 19, this fantastic property makes a perfect holiday home for you and your guests. Spacious and welcoming with plenty of farmhouse charm, this barn conversion is an opportunity to embrace a slower pace of life among beautiful scenery. Book the hot tub for 2 hours and bubble away after a long day walking or cycling along the Tarka Trail from Barnstaple (15 miles).

Whether you’re watching the kids in the play barn or walking the dog in the exercise paddock, it’s easy to get into country life here. The interiors have a wonderful cottage-style feel, while the bedrooms feature beautiful botanical touches ideal for a tranquil night’s sleep; find your favourite corner in the lounge area or in the shared summer house curled up with a good book and a coffee. Get your grill on at the charcoal BBQ on the patio and dine alfresco on balmy summer evenings. The open-plan living space is bright and airy during the day, but draw the curtains at night and it becomes a cosy haven.

When you’ve made the most of the 18-acre grounds, head over to Quince Honey Farm (5 miles) that has a play area for children as well as honey tasting tours. Sit back and enjoy the scenery on the Tarka Valley Railway (17 miles) or discover the stunning plants and flowers at RHS Garden Rosemoor (17 miles). Beaches at Instow (21.5 miles) and Westward Ho! (24.5 miles) have picturesque views and welcome dogs on parts all year if you’ve got your four-legged friend with you.

A beautiful cottage, wonderful hosts who were so accommodating! A great place for children as the play barn offers a trampoline and ride on tractors! We loved feeding the animals and the hot tub. We drove to Saunton Sands, Woolacombe and Westward Ho as well as Appledore and Instow. Was lovely to arrive back to the cottage in the evening as the sun Read morewas setting as the views are beautiful, wish we booked an extra week! Hide

The farm and our cottage were lovely, we loved playing in the play barn and it was hard to get the kids out of it! Our children loved being able to feed the chickens, horses and alpacas. We would highly recommend a stay here at the farm!
