This luxurious rural retreat is located close to the village of Umberleigh in North Devon, perfect for a group of friends or a family get-together – the four-legged members included. Sleeping eight across four lavish en-suite bedrooms, you will be sure of a touch of luxury. With plenty of space to spread out, don’t forget to bring your canine companion’s favourite bed so they can claim the spot in front of the wood burner. Surrounded by miles of countryside, you would be in the dog house if you left Rover out of this family holiday.
The property offers an open-plan kitchen/diner which is sure to become the central hub of the holiday. With a window that looks out over the large garden, kids and canines can be kept an eye on while they burn off energy outdoors. Exposed beams and stone fireplaces add character to the lounge and dining room while contemporary furnishings add a fresh appeal to the lounge. Upstairs, four stylish en-suite bedrooms create a luxurious feel, each decorated with a subtle undertone of grey with colourful bespoke furnishings and unique furniture. On summer evenings, gather the group, fire up the BBQ and dine alfresco in the secure garden.
Amble through the local country lanes and footpaths, setting off from Barnstaple along the Tarka Trail (13 miles) and ducking in and out of dog-friendly pubs along the way. Further afield, discover the breathtaking scenery of Exmoor (16.5 miles) or head to the beaches of Westward Ho! (21 miles), Saunton Sands (20 miles) or Croyde (22.5 miles). With a plethora of rural walks, dog-friendly beaches and attractions where dogs are welcome, Fido is sure to love this holiday, too.
