Property code: LINOR

Enjoy a peaceful and relaxing getaway at this pretty barn conversion in a quiet hamlet just 7 miles from Barnstaple. Contemporary but with quaint rustic features, this property is perfect for guests looking to take a break from busy life, in a tranquil location within 14 miles of the North Devon coast. Sink into the private hot tub on the decking with a glass of wine after a long day and watch the sunset over countryside views.

Whether you’re unwinding in front of the Smart TV with the wood burner crackling in the background, or indulging in a soak in the hot tub, you’ll have no trouble relaxing here. The open-plan living space is bright and airy during the day thanks to two large windows but can soon be turned into a cosy haven in the evening. Beautiful exposed beams feature around the home making the bedrooms and bathroom particularly impressive due to the apex ceilings. The attractive country-style kitchen/diner has everything you need to cook a hearty breakfast to set you up for a long day of exploring and there’s also a convenient cloakroom with WC located on the ground floor.

Pop down to the pub just 2 miles away in the next village for a quick lunch, or make the short drive to Barnstaple (7 miles) for a wider range of shops and restaurants plus a theatre and swimming pool. Take advantage of the lovely beaches around you, including Instow (7 miles) and the vast sandy beach at Westward Ho! (14 miles). Children and adults alike will delight in The BIG Sheep (14 miles) and the Milky Way (21 miles) both great family-friendly attractions with fun activities galore.

This is the 2nd Christmas that we have stayed as we have family around the area and it was as wonderful this time as last. The house is always beautifully decorated and maintained. The log burner and hot tub are some of our favourite things to enjoy when we are there. We look forward to hopefully staying again in the future.

Lovely little, converted ancient barn, beautifully done to a high standard. Hot tub and little outdoor seating area. Need a car, almost in the middle of nowhere, very peaceful. This is a little home from home, it doesn't feel like a holiday let at all with very nice, comfortable seating and a well-equipped kitchen. Lovely bathroom upstairs and the Read moredownstairs loo is very handy. We'd love to go again. Hide
