About this property

Rafters - a lodge that sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom

Situated on a farm in the beautiful village of Georgeham near Braunton in North Devon, Rafters Lodge offers luxurious accommodation in a wonderful countryside setting.
Step inside and you'll discover a stylish interior with stunning décor highlighted by floor to ceiling glass panels that showcase the rolling fields beyond.
A large master bedroom with its king size bed provides a sumptuous retreat from the outside world and the en-suite bathroom which is beautifully designed has a walk-in shower and a huge bath – perfect for a long, relaxing soak.
At the centre of the home is a lovely, well-equipped open-plan kitchen – ideal for home cooking; and with so much excellent local produce available in the area you'll be eager to whip up a few Devonshire inspired creations.
To the front of the lodge there's a decked patio where you'll discover a bubbling, private hot tub tucked away under the eaves - the best place from which to soak up the tranquil atmosphere and completely unwind, whatever the weather.
Rafters welcomes pets and has an enclosed garden to the rear so your four-legged friends get their own space, and the wonderful dog-friendly beaches of Saunton and Woolacombe are just a short drive away.

2 pets allowed, a fixed fee of £25 per dog for a short stay of 2-4 night stays and £40 per dog for a 7+ night stay is chargeable, in line with our house rules we do ask that pets are not left alone in the property, do not use the furniture or go in the bedroom areas.

Relaxing Retreat

Along with directions, the information pack was given by the owners prior to arrival which was useful. Upon arrival the lodge was spotlessly clean. The location was perfect, so quiet and peaceful. We were not overlooked by anyone - really escape. The lodge itself was well equipped and the hot tub was exactly what was needed after a day walking the stunning costal paths. Couple of pubs within walking distance, Croyde 5 mins drive away. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay.

Beautiful stay

Really comfortable lodge, we stayed over New Year, It was so peaceful and quiet even though all lodges was full, just could sometimes hear voices in hot tubs but very private. We would definitely stay again.

Great place to stay

The accommodation is very clean and modern with a fenced rear grass area for pets which is perfect. It also has a hot tub. The accommodation is high quality and private. The location means it is possible to walk to the local amenities and to the beach but having a car is useful to get around.

Perfection!

We had such a wonderful stay at Rafters Lodge and only wish we had booked for longer. We travelled with our two dogs, one is very anxious, so finding somewhere peaceful and secure is really important to us. This place was absolutely perfect. The location is incredibly quiet (just the sound of sheep!!) and the enclosed garden meant the dogs could relax safely, which made a huge difference for us. One of the highlights was being able to walk straight from the lodge through beautiful countryside to the nearby beaches. It made our days of exploring so easy and enjoyable. After long walks along the coast and through the fields, coming back to the lodge and soaking in the hot tub was exactly what we needed. There are also some fantastic local pubs within easy reach and the lodge is just a short drive from other lovely Devon towns. Overall it was the perfect mix of peaceful countryside, great walking, and cosy comfort. We left feeling completely relaxed and would absolutely love to come back again — next time for a longer stay!

A lovely, relaxing, dog friendly stay

Thank you for such a lovely stay at Rafters. We visited with our 2 dogs and had a very nice and relaxing stay. The lodge was very spacious and well designed, immaculately clean, and very warm and cosy too! We really appreciated the enclosed garden for our dogs which they enjoyed running around in! The hot tub was also a lovely fature and was very warm and welcome after a day out walking. The village of Georgeham is very welcoming - we visited the local shop and the 2 pubs who served excellent food and are just a short walk away. Would definitely recommend a stay at Rafters!

Perfect for a relaxing break

This was perfect for a relaxing break. Location was great, could hear the waves from Croyde beach at night. Cosy and warm. Peaceful and relaxing. Bed a little soft for me but that's my preference. Kitchen had all that was needed. Bathroom was lovely.

Birthday treat

This was our third stay at Rafters, the accommadation is bright and modern. The location is excellent, close to the village for pubs and a shop plus a short drive to the coast. The enclosed garden is a big bonus if you have a dog.

Fantastic Lodge

We loved the lodge, it was very well presented and laid out. The bed was really comfortable and the bathroom was spotless, with lovely fixtures. The hot tub was awesome and we spent each evening relaxing in it! Walking distance to two lovely pubs and just a short drive down to Woolacombe and Saunton for the beaches, shops etc. Brilliant, quiet location and a great place to stay.

Perfect Honeymoon

We couldn't have gone anywhere better in the UK for our honeymoon than March End Lodges. The lodge really is stunning, we could see ourselves living there if we had the cash! Beautiful location, boozers down the road were really friendly, cosy country side pubs. The beaches and surrounding areas were beautiful and made us depressed coming back to Birmingham! Would definitely come here again.

Thank you for your lovely review Matthew, we are delighted to hear you had a perfect honeymoon at March End, they certainly are stunning lodges and beautifully located.
