Overview
Property code: WOODH

This idyllic property is set in a wonderful valley location in three acres of its own garden and woodland. A short walk from the property will take you to the nearest beach at Spekes Mill.

 

Your whole family will love this spacious retreat in Hartland, Devon. Sleeping 10 guests across five bedrooms, there is space for everyone to settle in and make it their own. And as the pack wouldn’t be complete without your four-pawed pals, your two dogs are welcome too! Boasting direct access to the soaring cliffs, cascading waterfall and dog-friendly beach at Spekes Mill, this property allows plenty of freedom for restless legs.

Kick off dirty boots and clean muddy paws and cross the threshold into this large family home from home. Ideal for celebrating special occasions, there are two lounge areas connected via steps. One of the lounges is a large galleried room and the other is home to a cosy wood burner and varied selection of books, perfect for dipping into at the end of the day. Taking centre stage in the kitchen is the gas Aga. Splashed with bright colours, the homely kitchen houses lots of appliances and equipment for cooking up winning group meals and treats for your pups. If you have children, they will love the games room with table tennis, table football and dart board for entertainment on a rainy day. Outside you will find a decked area, as well as a seating area with camp fire. The 3 acres of private grounds are great for exploring, home to paths, woodland and an unfenced stream.

With so much to do right from your front door, adventure is never far away. Just half a mile from dog-friendly Docton Mill, you can explore the gardens and visit the award-winning tea rooms. Hartland village’s shops are in easy reach and the famous Clovelly village is 7 miles away. Take a walk on the rolling South West Coast Path or head 13 miles away to the dog-friendly Sandymouth Beach.

A very charming house full of character, very cosy with the aga and the wood burners. Fabulous garden (with regular visits from a deer!) Perfect location for anyone who enjoys walking.

This is a lovely cottage set in a brilliant location. We were greeted by a buzzard circling over the house crying a greeting which was lovely. Inside is not quite as big as expected but it was perfect for our party. There are a lot of stairs and the garden is steep so toddlers need to be watched at all times. The stream at the bottom of the garden Read morewas perfect for washing the dogs off after a muddy walk. Hide

A lovely house with amazing gardens. The rookery was a joy (if you like rooks) and the patio set for meals was wonderful if the weather is kind to you.

We're a family of 9 and would recommend Wooda as a lovely place to escape to. It's in a small hamlet so noise is not an issue if you just want peace and quiet. There's a lovely firepit by the stream at the bottom of the garden for relaxing around after a day body-boarding or surfing at one of the nearby beaches. You can walk to the coast path from Read morethe house and enjoy a walk (or run) in either direction. The pub at Hartland Quay is an excellent destination if they are not using it for filming. Hide
