A beautifully-appointed stone cottage set in an idyllic rural location just 3 miles from Barnstaple. This dog-friendly cottage is deceptively large and features an open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, en-suite bathrooms and access to a host of shared facilities including an indoor heated swimming pool and games room. It is the perfect base for families seeking a relaxing break in the countryside.
This charming reserve-level cottage is located at the end of a private no-through lane and enjoys stunning views down a wooded valley to the River Taw and Dartmoor beyond. It has a warm and welcoming ambience thanks to its rustic colour palette and soft furnishings that glow in the natural light pouring in from multiple angles. Unwind under the vaulted ceiling and exposed beams of the open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, a light and airy space with enough room for everyone to enjoy lazy brunches, afternoon naps and late night films. It’s downstairs for the two en-suite bedrooms, a beautifully-appointed king-size bedroom and a family bedroom comprising a double and a single bed. Outside, a shared courtyard garden unravels close to shared facilities including an 11m indoor heated swimming pool, a children’s play area and an indoor games room. Elsewhere, four-pawed visitors in the group will love exploring the 8 acres of lawns and fields near the cottage.
Footpaths crisscross the countryside surrounding the cottage, the perfect way to enjoy a family walk with the dogs. Barnstaple (3 miles) has a wealth of dog-friendly pubs and cafes, while the beaches at Croyde, Saunton Sands and Woolacombe (all 13 miles) are hugely popular with water sports lovers. Dogs are often welcome aboard the sea safaris that leave Ilfracombe (11 miles) a town that loves canine visitors. Exmoor National Park also lies 11 miles away.
