Head out on foot across the beautiful countryside and enjoy the spectacular coast from this relaxing stone barn set on a farm. Ideal for exploring Devon and Cornwall, the four-bedroom abode sleeps six guests. Situated 13.5 miles from Bude and 17.5 miles from Bideford, it is one of three exclusive retreats on the 500-acre farm and comes with a garden for summer sunshine and a wood burner for winter warmth.
Wander inside to find gorgeous interiors that blend original stonework and beams with beautiful, modern-day touches. Spend your evenings together in the welcoming lounge, with its large window and honey-coloured, wooden floor. Light the wood burner in here to throw a cosy glow across the room and choose a DVD to watch on the TV. Relax on the soft seating and listen to music as you chat. Amble through to the farmhouse-style kitchen/diner to prepare delicious meals for your party to enjoy at the table in here. The kitchen has been designed to feature everything you might need to assist you. There is also a handy WC downstairs. Make your way up to the first floor to find a family bathroom and all your bedrooms, which have gorgeous, sloping, wooden ceilings. These include two doubles, each with an en-suite shower room and TV, and two singles. Bask in the sunshine of your private garden on fine days, lighting the BBQ out here, perhaps, on summer days. Take the children and pets to play games on the large, shared, grassy space.
Head into Bude to go shopping, dine out and spend time on the beach at Summerleaze, where you can choose between the sea and tidal pool for dipping in. While away an afternoon at the National Trust’s picturesque Sandymouth Bay, 11.5 miles away.
