This delightful stone cottage is located in a courtyard with two other cottages and the shared indoor swimming pool.

Step through the stable door and into the open-plan kitchen/dining/living room. The kitchen is well-equipped with all the essentials including an electric oven, an induction hob, a fridge and freezer, a microwave and a dishwasher. Meanwhile, the four-seater dining table provides the perfect setting to enjoy meals together or chat about your day. This can be extended to seat 10 if dining with guests in other cottages.

The elegantly designed living room is a particularly cosy space with two comfortable sofas, a wood-burning stove and a Smart TV, while the views of the valley are quite spectacular.

Upstairs, there are two beautiful bedrooms, one with a king-size bed and one with twin beds. A shared bathroom is located next door with a shower over the bath.

The outdoor terrace is complete with garden furniture, a BBQ, a chiminea and a hot tub with enchanting views over the animal enclosure and beyond.

You will have access to a host of on-site leisure facilities that are shared by guests of all cottages:

The grounds

There are 16 acres of stunning grounds to explore and dog walking fields. Amble through the meadows and stop off at the kitchen garden and greenhouse to choose a little something to go with your delicious alfresco lunch.

The grounds also provide a combined 5-aside football pitch, a badminton and grass tennis court, croquet, boules, cricket and a putt golf course.

Swimming pool and games room

Take a dip in the indoor heated swimming pool or head to the games room where you will find an abundance of toys and games, plus a soft play area for little ones aged 5 years old and under. For outdoor fun, there is an adventure playground with swings, slides and a climbing frame.

Location

The neighbourhood

The cottage is located in the picturesque Devon countryside, posing many pretty walking routes close by for you and your four-legged friends to explore. The Exmoor National Park is particularly stunning with its dramatic coastline, stretching from Minehead in the east to Combe Martin in the west.

There are many beautiful beaches to visit in North Devon, with the nearest being Combe Martin Beach, just 2 miles away. Barricane Beach, Woolacombe and Saunton Sands are also great for days spent strolling through the sand, going for a dip in the sea or relaxing in the sunshine.
