Bring together your nearest and dearest for a memorable holiday in this beautiful cottage. Set within 18 acres of grounds, in the heart of North Devon, this is the perfect base to unwind from the stresses of everyday life. As well as a multitude of countryside walks nearby, you’ll also be within easy reach of the region’s iconic beaches. Woolacombe, Saunton Sands, and Croyde are all less than 15 miles away. The open-plan layout lends itself to entertaining and you’ll also have access to a great range of shared facilities, including an indoor heated swimming pool.

The stone cottage has a reverse-level layout, with two of the bedrooms on the ground floor. Heading upstairs, you’ll find the stylish, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. This impressive space has a vaulted ceiling and boasts fabulous countryside views. Spend time together in here, reclining on the corner sofas to watch the TV/DVD or congregating around the dining table for dinner parties and family celebrations. Two further bedrooms are located on this floor. Outside, unwind on the terrace and admire the far-reaching views, or enjoy strolls around the peaceful grounds. You’ll have a whole host of shared facilities, including a heated indoor swimming pool, jacuzzi, sauna BBQ, children’s play area, and games room.

The picturesque villages of Lynton and Lynmouth (16 miles) are well worth a visit during your stay. Potter amongst the fishermen’s cottages in Lynmouth and ride the scenic cliff railway to Lynton, before striding out along the coast path to experience the jaw-dropping views. As well as the popular seaside resorts, there are numerous hidden gems along the North Devon coast. Broadsands Beach (1.5 miles) is off the beaten track and is a real oasis of calm.

Just perfect for a family group of 10. Lovely little swimming pool, warm and not too deep for the children. The games room is well equipped. The location is good, there are at least three major attractions within 20 min drive .

The complex of properties is lovely but we wouldn't choose Meadowsweet again. The bedroom space would be very tight for a party of 10 as the smaller bunk room is tiny and has no ventilation. The description of the outside area is inaccurate, the "cute courtyard " is in front of 2 other properties. By Meadowsweet front door there is a very small areRead morea just large enough for a table, but there isn't one. It is certainly not big enough for 2 tables which you would need for 10people. Hide

Amazing cottage, with the most beautiful sceneries, very well presented & plenty to do! The swimming pool was gorgeous & so warm! Everything was emaculate & well presented. Very new property & surrounding. The kids loved the park, swimming pool, seeing the goats & the games room was enjoyed by both the kids & adults, we had great fun!

Lovely place to stay. Pool area was fab and kids enjoyed it. Problem with pool temperature (too cold then too hot!) when we were there but hopefully owners will sort. Games area was a hit with the kids as well. Beautiful views. Cottage we were in needs a bit of TLC but owners doing a refit of it this winter I understand.
