  • Try your hand at coarse fishing on the peaceful lake
  • Perfectly placed for exploring Devon and Cornwall
  • Nestled in a peaceful countryside setting within easy reach of the coast
Property code: OC-WVSTC

Tucked within a picture-perfect countryside setting close to the Devon/Cornwall border you’d find it difficult to beat the location of this charming barn conversion that could comfortably accommodate a large family or group of friends travelling together, along with two trusty canine companions. If this property was a stick of rock it would have ‘fun’ stamped right through the middle of it, with so much for the entire family to do within the complex. A fully equipped games barn, private coarse fishing lake, pet corner and outdoor play area create a pretty incredible holiday destination for both people and pups.

The open-plan lounge/dining area is tastefully decorated in creamy accents that perfectly accentuate the exposed wooden ceiling struts and brick fire surround. The fluffy rug in front of the wood burner provides the perfect spot for your four-legged friends to lay and dream about their next adventure and the adjoining kitchen contains everything you could possibly need to make your stay here a comfortable one. Downstairs there are two good-sized bedrooms, with a smaller third room on the third floor offering a cute and cosy space for younger guests to sleep in.

There are a cluster of shops as well as a regular market within 5-miles of the property, in the traditional market town of Holsworthy. Bude is a 14-mile drive and definitely worth a visit. The kids will love the splash pool and the fantastic selection of dog-friendly beaches means that everyone gets to enjoy some fun in the water. The Eden Project is just less than 40-miles from the property and a visit here would just about complete your Cornish adventure.

A real Gem, we really enjoyed the stay and the house was beautiful. The barbecue hut was a great touch and made our Saturday night. Warm welcome friendly and fantastic eggs freshly laid!

We stayed with our friends and their dogs for a long weekend at the Stables. Humans could relax in the hottub and the dogs relaxed in front of the fireplace after running around at the beaches. What a great location and we definitely will be back.
