One of the twins has bunk beds which are suitable for either children or adults.

Had a lovely stay with extended family. Buckland house was perfect for our needs and welll equipped with everything youd need. We stayed early March but it would be even better in summer months. The large conservatory was too cold to use really, which is a fantastic space leading out into beautiful gardens and landscape with summerhouse and bbq andRead more pond with running water/stream. The house was large, we all had space including the dogs. Kids loved the bar billiards & playing hide n seek in the dark and man-hunt in the beautiful grounds! The owner was pleasant, popping over to check on us and offer us some wood for the wood burner. The beach is a 5 mins drive away, perfect for dog walking with a pub & caf at the end (but not much more). Its really beautiful but sadly Not really great for wheelchairs or buggy if you want a long walk, as only part of it is pavement, our Niece was on crutches/wheelchair so they had to drive onto Salcombe as they couldnt push her for the extended walk which was a shame.

Buckland House was just right for our needs. It may not be right for everyone but for a relaxed family holiday in a house with lots of room and lovely, spacious grounds, it was just the job!
