Stylish and welcoming, this sympathetically converted property enjoys countryside views and a peaceful location, yet the village of Swimbridge is easily accessible.

Get away from it all in this rural retreat in the North Devon countryside. The property sleeps two guests, plus one canine chum, and makes the perfect romantic escape for those wanting to switch off and recharge. Enjoy long walks in the surrounding countryside before stopping at one of the village pubs for a local ale and a dog chew. After a busy day, return to your cosy cottage to sip a glass of wine in your private seating area under the stars.

The stylish loft conversion is warm and inviting, with exposed woodwork and far-reaching countryside views. As you enter, you’ll find the kitchen, before heading upstairs to the rest of the property. Stretch out on the plump sofa after a long dog walk, or snuggle up in the armchair to watch the Smart TV. An adorable table sits by the window, for enjoying romantic meals with the woofer curled at your feet. A king-size bedroom and a contemporary shower room complete the accommodation. The property has characterful exposed beams and sloping ceilings throughout. Outside, you’ll find a private seating area with a BBQ for al fresco dining. You’ll also have access to the plant room, for storing dog-walking gear.

The area is a paradise for walkers, with many woof-welcoming beaches within 20 miles, including Saunton, Instow, and Westward Ho!. At the beaches, you can pick up the long-distance South West Coast Path, where Fido can lead you high onto the cliffs to experience the rugged coastal scenery. Heading inland, you’ll soon reach Exmoor National Park (8 miles). This playground for pups is packed with walking trails and beauty spots to sniff and explore, from waterside strolls at Wistlandpound (12 miles) or Wimbleball Lake (30 miles), to woodland walks at Arlington Court (12 miles) or Tarr Steps (22 miles).

We have stayed in some excellent cottages around the UK and would put The Loft right up there with the best ones. Lovely property in a very tranquil location but ideally suited for exploring the local area. Cream tea provided by the owners on arrival is always a winner and a great way to start a holiday.

The hosts are very friendly and willing. We took advantage of their EV charger at extra cost, Thankyou. The accommodation was spotless and very comfortable.

The location was stunning I can not complain. The road up to it was a bit difficult but we managed. It. in a loverly area and plenty of room. The walks were all so quite just what I needed. We will be trying this again with places not far to travel like appledore and instow as well as other beeches. Plus the dog just loved every minute.
