Perched on the outskirts of Langtree, this inviting barn conversion provides the ideal base for couples and small families to explore North Devon with their happy hounds. Four humans and two dogs have the run of this warm and welcoming cottage, which features cosy living areas and an enclosed grassy garden. Located within easy distance of the North Devon Coast plus Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks, this is a destination that’s sure to set tails wagging.

Although set in the grounds of the owner’s property, privacy is ensured at this delightful cottage. Sympathetically renovated, it’s bursting with character and charm thanks to vaulted, beamed ceilings and relaxed, rural decor. Curl up with your pups in front of the warming wood burner in the lounge after long country walks. Rustle up family favourites in the spacious kitchen, then gather the pack around the dining table for evenings of laughter and chatter. Alternatively, fire up the BBQ on the patio and enjoy an al-fresco feast in the fresh country air. Two bedrooms, one double and one twin, invite a restful night’s sleep and share use of the family bathroom. Guests benefit from off-road parking.

Dogs and their humans will go barking mad for the 180-mile Tarka Trail, a walking and cycling route that connects Dartmoor and Exmoor with the North Devon Coast. Beach-loving pups will adore the sweeping sandy beaches nearby, including the dog-friendly beaches of Saunton Sands, Westward Ho!, and Peppercombe (within 23 miles). Watch out for special doggy days at RHS Garden Rosemoor (5 miles).
