Immerse yourself in a fairy tale setting at this beautiful barn conversion just 3 miles outside the town of Honiton. Effortlessly blending period features with contemporary styling, this delightful property sleeps four people over two bedrooms and welcomes two canine companions. It’s the ideal accommodation choice for small families or groups of friends who want to explore the south Devon countryside with their pups by their side. You and your faithful friends will adore exploring the property’s 32 shared acres of lakes and woodlands during the day, and then coming home to stretch out in front of the glowing wood burner in the cottage’s cosy lounge each evening.

Step inside and you’ll find an elegant open-plan living space consisting of lounge, kitchen and dining areas. Take a moment to make yourself at home before rustling up some dinner in the country-style kitchen and eating in the charming dining area. Alternatively, head outside, fire-up the BBQ and dine alfresco in the Italianate-style covered courtyard - your pups can run free in the enclosed garden while you eat. After dinner, unwind in front of the TV in the lounge area while your pups snooze in front of the wood burner. When it’s time for bed, head up the solid wood staircase to the first floor, where you''ll find two charming bedrooms to choose from.

Pack up a picnic and head to the east end of Sidmouth Town Beach (12.5 miles), where dogs are welcome all year round. You’ll find plenty of rock pools to explore. Alternatively, make tails wag at the dog-friendly Fire Beacon Hill Nature Reserve (10 miles), which boasts panoramic views of Lyme Bay.

A peaceful, calming and restful place with extensive grounds providing plenty of space to walk dogs. The lakes are a haven for wildlife; fish, waterfowl and even beavers, which can be seen active in the evenings. We loved the spacious accommodation and the very comfortable beds.

We absolutely loved our stay at the barn. Liz is a wonderful host, and made us feel so at home. We visited with our two children and intended to spend much of the week exploring the surrounding area (including fossil hunting on the coast, which was ace), but we were also so happy in the cottage and the gardens that we spent a lot of time just playiRead moreng, exploring the gardens and all the wildlife and relaxing there. We had a lovely picnic lunch in the boathouse - highly recommended, and the girls were thrilled to feed the fish and Treacle the pig, to see bats in the evenings and look out for the pair of nesting ducks and geese. The cottage is gorgeous and very comfortable, and the whole of Hutchinghayes is exceptionally beautiful. We are already looking forward to returning! Thank you so much Liz for a wonderful week's stay X Hide

The cottage is in the most idyllic setting with a fantastic host - Liz - and a fantastic house keeper - Hazel. It was the most peaceful and tranquil place we have stayed in with over 30 acres to explore including 2 lakes. Our 2 children (17yrs and 13yrs) also loved it. Especially fussing over the friendly pig - Treacle. A wonderful base to exploRead morere the beauty of the Devon countryside. We stayed in the cottage which was perfect for us, but the house within the same grounds caters for a larger family / get together. Very much recommended. Hide
