  • Escape to this charming Devon holiday cottage, a beautifully presented countryside retreat overlooking the rolling hills and peaceful landscapes of North Devon. Blending traditional character with modern comfort, this spacious self-catering accommodation offers the perfect place to relax, unwind, and enjoy the beauty of rural life.

    Step inside and be welcomed into a warm and inviting country-style kitchen, superbly equipped with everything you need for a comfortable stay. Enjoy the convenience of an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge-freezer, dishwasher, washing machine, and clothes airer. The charming dining area, with seating for four, is ideal for enjoying home-cooked meals, family breakfasts, or a quiet morning coffee before heading out to explore Devon. French doors open onto a private patio - a tranquil outdoor haven where you can soak up panoramic countryside views and listen to the sounds of nature all around. From the kitchen, a door leads through to the spacious living room, designed for comfort and relaxation. Sink into soft country furnishings and enjoy a film night with Sky and Freeview TV, or simply unwind with a book in the glow of the peaceful surroundings. This inviting space captures the essence of a true Devon cottage, offering warmth and serenity throughout the year.

    Upstairs, you'll find two beautifully furnished double bedrooms and a family-sized bathroom. The master bedrooms provides a restful retreat with charming floral décor, a 4'6" double bed, TV, and space for a travel cot, all complemented by gorgeous countryside views.

The modern family bathroom includes a bath, overhead shower, heated towel rail, and sleek white tiling - the perfect spot to refresh after a day of exploring North Devon's coast and countryside. A third room offers a quiet study area, perfect for reading, working remotely, or enjoying a peaceful family board game, a flexible space ideal for guests seeking relaxation away from the main living areas.

    Outside, the private patio area is furnished with a garden table and chairs, creating the perfect setting for alfresco dining, evening drinks, or sunset watching over the surrounding fields. Whether you're sharing stories over wine, enjoying a barbecue, or simply listening to birdsong, this peaceful spot captures the essence of a Devon countryside escape.
