  • Enjoy the luxury of your very own private hot tub during your stay at this beautiful Devon retreat 
  • A truly perfect holiday home for comfort and relaxation with the whole family 
  • An array of beaches to choose from nearby which include Woolacombe, Croyde and Westward Ho!
Property code: OC-74967

This gorgeous barn conversion in the heart of Devon is the perfect location for a relaxing holiday with your pets. As a special indulgence, this cosy escape has an indoor hot tub for some true relaxation and rest. The property sleeps up to four along with two of your doggie friends, so is great for a small family or group of friends.

This remarkable property, some of which dates back to the Tudor period, has an upside-down configuration with the living area upstairs. The upper floor has an open-plan layout with a dining area and lounge, plus the kitchen area up a couple of steps. The wooden roof is spectacular, its arched shape creating atmosphere and class. Huge windows let plenty of light in and offer pretty views over the surrounding countryside. On cooler evenings, light up the wood burner to keep you all warm – Tucker will love dozing off beside it. Outside, there’s a stone patio with furniture for al fresco dining, plus an enclosed private garden where the dogs can run around.

To take the dogs on a long adventure across woodland, moorland and alongside pretty rivers, head to Exmoor National Park (9 miles). If the sea air is calling, try Westward Ho! (20 miles), a seaside village with dog-friendly beaches for Buster to run along. Croyde (22 miles) or Woolacombe (24.5 miles) are two good options if you want to go surfing.

We had a lovely weekend at The Stick House. Four exhausted mums who just needed to relax and we certainly did that, between the hot tub and wonderful views of the surrounding land. We also went for a wander and bumped into the owner who was so lovely and showed us all the animals. We will definitely come back!
