Surrounded by nothing but farmland, this Nordic-style lodge is the ideal rural retreat for couples or a family alongside one or two furry companions who will love the adjoining dog-walking field. Discover the wonderful pup-friendly beaches of North Devon, talk long walks over the hills and tors of Exmoor National Park and peruse the popular market town of Barnstable.
Wood-clad, warm and inviting, this delightful lodge is a welcoming sight after a day of exploration. Open-plan living means the whole family can relax together in the cosy sitting area where the roaring wood burner is sure to be a hit with the four-legged members of your party. Decor is light and airy with a distinctly Scandinavian feel, chunky exposed beams fly overhead, and solid wood floors lay underfoot. Two attractive bedrooms and a stylish wet room will see you scrubbed and rested, ready for another day of fun with the hound. Outside, the decked wrap-around balcony is fully enclosed, meaning your faithful companions can join you for a spot of al fresco dining overlooking the surrounding countryside. When it comes time to stretch the legs, a dash around the adjoining dog field is sure to do the trick.
Barnstaple is conveniently nearby, less than 2 miles away, and is home to a great selection of independent shops, restaurants and pubs, as well as the famed Pannier Market to which Fido is warmly invited. The coastal town of Instow is 8 miles away and offers a dog-friendly estuary beach where those with excess energy to burn can go mutts. Alternatively, visit Exmoor National Park (9 miles), where canine compadres can accompany you on magical walks, full of exciting sights, sounds and smells in this dramatic landscape.
