Watch Rover race about the orchard at this luxurious cottage in beautiful Devon. Sleeping two guests, the one-bedroom, romantic retreat is a doggy delight when choosing where to holiday with your pet. Nestled in rural surroundings, 3 miles from Combe Martin, it also has a patio and lawned garden. The South West Coast Path, which your four-legged friend will simply adore, is also just 3 miles away and Wild Pear Beach, which welcomes waggy-tailed visitors all year round, is 4 miles from the stylish hideaway.

Make your way inside your dog-friendly, reverse-level barn to find chic, bright accommodation with sea views. Climb the wooden stairs, with Rover wagging his tail behind you, to emerge into your airy, open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner. Snuggle up on the soft seating, while your chum finds himself a cosy corner to curl up in, then gaze out at the views. Open a bottle of wine and find a film on the Smart TV. Head over to the colourful kitchen to give Rover a dish of fresh Devon-farmed cuts, then prepare a romantic, candle-lit dinner to sit down to at the table. As darkness falls, settle your four-pawed pal and head off to your sumptuous bedroom downstairs. This features a double bed and Smart TV. Wake up to sea views before having a bath or shower and taking your chum for a stroll around the adjoining orchard. Have morning coffee out in the garden, which is up a few steps, upon your return and light the BBQ on warm evenings. There is ample off-road parking.

Pack a few puppy treats and head off into Exmoor National Park, 5 miles away, to stretch furry legs. Plan a day trip to the golden sands at Woolacombe, 9 miles away, where sections of the beach are dog friendly all year round.

We loved every minute of our stay in this beautiful cottage. The owners should be very proud of what they have achieved. Really liked the upside down layout to make the most of the sea views.

Many thanks for a memorable Christmas. Hide

Excellent location and immaculate house. As he had our dog with us the location gave us the opportunity to allow her to roam in the orchard. That said there was a hole in the fence/hedge behind the hut, that allowed our jackapoo to wriggle through so would suggest that is looked at.
