Introduce your pet to farm life with a stay at this charming Devon retreat. It’s got fantastic views for the humans and an enclosed garden where energetic dogs can let off steam. You’re just 2 miles from the vibrant market town of South Molton, where you can shop for treats for both humans and hounds at the twice-weekly market and explore independent shops. Sleeping six, this luxurious property is ideal for a family group or nature-loving friends.
Inside, the house has floor-to-ceiling windows framing rolling countryside views. The open-plan kitchen/diner sets you up for sociable meals, with glass balcony doors that open to let in the fresh Devon air. After a day’s adventures, everyone can stretch out in the inviting lounge, complete with a wood burner where your pup will adore warming her fur during the chillier months. There’s also a snug/games room for quieter moments or children’s playtime. When it’s time to turn in, three lovely bedrooms promise a restful night’s sleep: two king-size bedrooms – one of which has en-suite shower room – and a cosy twin. The family bathroom contains a free-standing bath and walk-in shower, while a second bathroom with both bath and shower ensures there’s plenty of space. Outside, the first-floor balcony runs almost the full length of the house – lovely for sipping morning coffees or evening drinks with sweeping rural views. Beneath it, an enclosed patio area provides a safe spot for dogs to roam while you enjoy a BBQ or simply soak up the peace. Ample private parking makes coming and going easy.
When you’re ready to explore, the area is packed with adventures for you and your pet to discover, starting with the majestic Exmoor National Park (6 miles). Pack a picnic and your pet’s ball, and prepare for pretty hikes taking in moorland paths, woodland, rivers and streams. For a delicious local experience, visit Quince Honey Farm (3 miles) to sample golden honey, wander the nectar gardens and explore the nature trails together (dogs welcome).
