Set within 30 acres of Devon countryside on the outskirts of South Molton, this magnificent country house makes the perfect base for family gatherings and special occasions. Accommodating up to 18 people and 5 pups, the property has abundant living space plus a hot tub and sauna to help you relax and unwind. With the Exmoor National Park on your doorstep and the North Devon coast just over 20 miles away, you’re guaranteed to have a ball!

Spread over three storeys, this holiday home is light and spacious with a flamboyant country style, striking wallpaper and colourful fabrics. The large lounge offers space for everybody to sink into the deep sofas, while your canine chums snooze in front of the wood burner. The kitchen has two ovens including a range so you can cook up a storm, and then gather to dine around the table that seats 18. The eight bedrooms are divided between the first and second floors, six of which have en-suites, but it’s the outdoor space that really gives this property its wow factor. Sip a glass of wine in the hot tub under the stars, enjoy a BBQ in the sun, and let your furry friends burn off some energy with a game of fetch.

This country house is 2.5 miles east of South Molton, a historic market town on the border of Exmoor National Park. There are several dog-friendly pubs and a thriving market where you and your dog can sniff out some tasty treats. Exmoor is a natural playground for humans and dogs alike, with open heathland, wooded walks, lakes, rivers and streams to explore. If you fancy a day at the coast, the beaches at Woolacombe (27 miles) and Saunton Sands (21 miles) offers miles of golden sands and welcome dogs all year round.

We enjoyed our stay in this big house. There are 16 of us and it provided a great space for us all. It's well equipped and we used the hot tub and the pizza oven. It's a bit remote for young children as the coast is just a bit far for them. There are soft play options nearer though.
