If you're looking for a holiday property with a difference, look no further than this first-floor apartment situated within a charming Grade II-listed manor house in the quaint village of Bradiford, Devon. Built in 1752, it enjoys stunning views of the Taw Estuary and the surrounding countryside and is the perfect place to get away from it all. Boasting period features and contemporary furnishings, it's the ideal combination of old and new and offers a warm welcome to families of four.

Accessed through a pretty courtyard and up a staircase, the first-floor apartment offers plenty of space with a comfortable open-plan lounge/dining room. Make yourselves at home on one of the leather sofas arranged in front of the TV or cook up some treats in the fully equipped kitchen. The generously proportioned bedroom includes a double bed, a cot and a TV, as well as a separate wash basin. An additional fold-out bed is also available in the lounge if needed. Completing the interior is a traditionally styled bathroom. The surrounding shared grounds are teeming with wildlife, and include a play area with a badminton net and a large trampoline. If you're looking for something a bit more relaxed, head to the 14m heated indoor swimming pool, or the traditional snooker room inside the main house, which has a full-sized table and a licensed bar.

From the apartment, you can enjoy easy access to Barnstaple (2.5 miles away), with its shops, eateries and abundant things to do for all ages. Or within 14 miles, you can experience a treasure trove of exciting attractions, including the golden beaches at Saunton, Croyde and Woolacombe, the UNESCO Biosphere Reserve at Braunton Burrows, and the Royal Horticultural Society's Rosemoor Garden.

We thoroughly enjoyed our time at Upcott House. The Tracy apartment was well equipped with comfortable beds, a good shower & provided a wonderful view, whatever the weather. The pool was a fantastic addition for my children. We certainly hope to return again.

I cannot recommend this amazing place highly enough. A pure gem of a place and will certainly be back. The accommodation was spotless and tastefully decorated and the views from our window were breath-taking. We would not hesitate in recommending this beautiful place to all our family and friends they will not be disappointed. It certainly is a verRead morey dog friendly place with acres of land to run around in and exercise. We didnt take advantage this time of the lovely, heated swimming pool although we were very tempted, but we were too busy exploring the stunning surrounding countryside and coastal walks nearby. All in all, 10/10 in our opinion. Thank you to homeowners for your splendid hospitality. Hide
