We would be absolutely thrilled and delighted to welcome you to the dog friendly Devon Bolthole, a charming, cosy and well equipped little holiday cottage on the outskirts of the pretty village of Highampton amidst West Devon's stunning rolling countryside. We are in the heart of the beautiful Tarka Valley, between Bude and Dartmoor. A perfect spot for truly getting away from it all; for unwinding and relaxing while being ideally positioned as a base for exploring all the incredible countryside and beaches of Devon and Cornwall and being in easy reach of a fantastic range of activities to suit every member of the family!
Our cottage is situated within a small and tranquil, privately owned development of only 14 properties, set within 3.5 acres of land. You will have direct access to the Ruby Way - a wonderful trail for walking or cycling, acting as a loop for the famous Tarka Trail.
You won’t find discos and bars on our site, but you will find total peace and tranquility; the sound of birdsong and the odd distant farm animal. You’ll discover a picnic area with a BBQ and a children's' play area, both overlooking a small, well stocked fishing lake with 5 fixed docks. You might also enjoy our heated indoor swimming pool available only for guests staying on the site so it’s rarely even slightly busy. (Please note, the pool is open daily between April and September and there are no lifeguards.) Perhaps in the evening you might sit out on the decking looking over the distant hills and watch the sun go down and be amazed at the stars you can see with so little light pollution in the area.
There are also communal laundry facilities available on site.
