On a former working dairy farm in the heart of the Devon countryside, this property is a lovingly restored stone barn conversion completed to a high standard in 2014 offering plenty of character and space with the added bonus of an outdoor Jacuzzi hot tub in the walled garden. The open-plan living space and finish of the property means that guests will find it the perfect home from home in Devon.
Inside, the impressive, vaulted ceiling and exposed oak beams combine with a mixture of slate and oak flooring to provide a delightful living space. The well-equipped country cream kitchen area, complete with butler sink, is next to the Juliet balcony which overlooks the sheltered enclosed garden, with countryside views beyond. If you are not outside barbecuing, why not plan your next day's activities over an evening meal at the oak dining table or relax in the comfy reclining leather seats. A solid wooden staircase leads down to the attractively presented bedrooms – one king and one twin, located at each end of the barn, both with en-suite facilities. On this lower level, three sets of stunning doors all open out onto the patio and a good size lawn sits within the sheltered walls. The outdoor Jacuzzi hot tub is sure to prove a favourite throughout the year.
Just under 1.5 miles away and down a quiet farm lane from the property, you’ll find the great village inn in Muddiford, offering both bar and restaurant facilities for hungry and thirsty guests. There are also plenty of activities nearby such as horse riding, shooting and fishing on offer for those wishing to add to countryside rambles or days on the beach. If you wish to explore the area further, the property is just over 6 miles from the edge of Exmoor National Park where you can roam and discover the delights of the countryside, yet you are also within 11 miles of the golden surf beaches and rugged coastline of North Devon at Woolacombe so this property provides a superb rural holiday base for couples, friends and family.

Fantastic property with hot tub, location very rural.
Great property fully equipped kitchen with everything you could possibly need. The hot tub was a fantastic addition with the luxury of being on the ground floor along with the bedrooms.
The location was very rural and up a long farm track. The pub was at the bottom of the track which did fantastic meals but a long walk back up the hill!

Really lovely cottage in rural location
Fab cottage with everything you could need for your stay. Luxuries like a cream tea and bunch of flowers to welcome you, plus underfloor heating, a hot tub and a washing machine (not always found in holiday accommodation, but a must with two messy kids). We had fab weather and it was a great base to explore the beaches and attractions in the area. Note: the track up to the cottage is beautiful, with stunning views, but it's quite rutted so you may not want to attempt it in a car with low clearance! Would definitely recommend you.
