Bursting with character and wonderful original features, this sumptuous barn conversion with a sunken hot tub and exercise field for your canine companions is the perfect retreat for families looking for an escape to the countryside. Go mutts exploring the heart of the North Devon countryside and coastline a stick’s throw away.
Lead the way into the entrance hall via the raised decked balcony and hang up the leash before retiring to the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Tail-wagging features including exposed ceiling beams and stunning Velux windows give the space a true warmth that invites you to whip up some tasty treats, plan tomorrow’s walkies seated around the dining table and unwind weary walking muscles on the sofa as your four-legged friend takes a snooze on the rug. Head downstairs at bedtime to cosy up in either the en-suite super-king-size bedroom or en-suite super-king-size zip-and-link bedroom (which can be made into a twin). Outside, admire your wonderful views of Exmoor from the comfort of the hot tub and enjoy relaxed meals alfresco. You’ll find plenty of stick-throwing opportunities in the private dog exercise field near the cottage.
You’ll get to know the North Devon countryside very well from this secluded spot, with countless scenic footpaths from the doorstep; your four-legged friend will have a ball exploring the large dog exercise field just a stick’s throw from the cottage. Nestled beside the River Taw, head to the village of Umberleigh (5.5 miles) to explore some stunning riverside walks with your four-pawed third wheel; make a day of it by rambling to the bustling market town of Barnstaple (9.5 miles). Treat your pup to an afternoon of getting their paws sandy at the gloriously sandy stretch of Saunton Sands, 17.5 miles away.
