This barn has been lovingly refurbished and offers a superb bolthole for couples, with its own enclosed garden, and it’s just 5 miles from the North Devon Coast Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty.

This charming cottage is a great base for romantic adventures on the North Devon Coast and in the countryside with up to two four-legged friends in tow. With a reverse-level layout and characterful features such as exposed beams, the space will instantly feel like home, providing a base to retreat to at the end of each day. Head to the Hartland Heritage Coast (10 miles) for invigorating walks which are sure to set tails wagging as you travel through picturesque coves and on clifftop paths.

Split over two floors with a reverse-level layout, you’ll find the beautiful open-plan living space on the first floor with a calming neutral colour palette. Boasting tri-aspect windows, the space is filled with natural light and offers a cosy place to kick back when you return home from a day of dog-friendly activities. You can sprawl out on the sofa with Fido at your feet and put on a film to truly unwind. Separated by a low wall, the kitchen area has everything you’ll need to prepare meals for breakfast, lunch and dinner, which can be eaten inside on the intimate table for two, or outside in one of two patio gardens. Downstairs is the bedroom, furnished with a glorious king-size bed which assures a good night’s rest, as well as plenty of storage to allow you to fully unpack. Also on the ground floor is the charming shower room.

North Devon has a wealth of dog-friendly beaches to offer with Westward Ho! set 8 miles away and Instow 9 miles away. Both beaches also benefit from a selection of fantastic local eateries that welcome four-pawed pals to join you for dinner ensuring no one is left out. Further afield, Exmoor National Park is an exciting place with lots of scents to sniff and sticks to fetch whether you choose to wander the South West Coast Path from Combe Martin (24 miles) or venture further inland through moorland, farmland and woodland.

Swallow Cottage is a gem in North Devon. The cottage has all the things needed and more to make your stay enjoyable. Lyn & Peter are so helpful and provide service over and above what you normally receive. The location is lovely, nestled in a small village , but close to main routes for ease of access to both Cornwall, and the Devon coast. Ten minuRead moretes or so to the stunning village of Clovelly is a must. Olly the local publican of village pub is a must....food was great too. Hide

All first class, very comfortable and peaceful. Owners were at hand if you required anything. Important factor for us is that the courtyard was very safe for our four legged companion. Easy access to various amenities and a pub within easy walking distance which provided excellent food. What more can one ask for. 100% recommend
