Beautifully renovated, this former barn makes a fabulous base for exploring the stunning South Hams. Pet-friendly, its reverse-level layout includes two en-suite bedrooms on the ground floor and, above, a fabulous open-plan social space with a wood burner. A private terrace and games field add to the fun.
One of a small collection of holiday hideaways on a quiet working farm, this property welcomes you into an elegant hallway with, to the right, a master bedroom that has a super-king-sized bed plus an en-suite bathroom. Adjacent a handy laundry room allows you to pack light, and across the hallway the second bedroom offers versatile sleeping arrangements – its super-king-sized bed can be made up as twins on request, and there’s room to add a cot or an extra single bed if needed. A family shower room completes the convenience at ground-floor level. Ascend the staircase and you’ll find an open-plan social space filled with high ceilings, exposed beams, and lots of natural light. At one end the kitchen is chic and includes a dining suite, while at the other leather sofas are arranged before the TV and wood burner. French doors open onto a sunny private terrace where there’s a BBQ and outdoor dining furniture. A pathway leads from here to a sheltered apple orchard and a shared field that’s perfect for ball games and also boasts a giant trampoline.
Park, unpack and explore at your own pace. The mile-long stretch of shingle and pebbles at Beesands (1.5 miles) serves up an authentic taste of Devon life, with a welcoming waterfront inn and seafood restaurant. Shop for self-catering supplies in market town Kingsbridge (6.5 miles), or drive across the South Devon National Landscape to Salcombe (13 miles) – a food lover’s paradise, the town is an excellent location for celebrity-spotting.
