Property code: OC-S29702

Approached via a private driveway meandering through the owners’ land, this charming cottage promises a peaceful countryside escape, yet benefits from the convenience of being just over 2 miles from the town of Bideford with its shops, pubs and restaurants. The golden sandy beach of Westward Ho! and the sand dunes at Instow are both a 5-mile drive away for beach days and seaside fun. Couples can enjoy excellent walking or cycling along the traffic-free Tarka Trail. Visit the house and gardens at Tapeley Park (5 miles), and explore the beautiful grounds of RHS Rosemoor in Torrington, just 6 miles away. While away hours in the delightful fishing village of Appledore (5.5 miles) or the cliffside village of Clovelly (13.5 miles) with its cobbled streets and olde-worlde atmosphere. Alternatively, just enjoy the tranquillity at the property where you can watch the alpacas or head for a drink and a bite to eat at the local pub (1 mile).

This adorable, reverse-level barn set within the rolling Devon countryside is a delight. On entering via external stone steps, find yourself in the open-plan living space which has a well-equipped kitchen area, dining table and chairs, comfortable seating, Smart TV and DAB radio. Head down the stairs to the sleeping accommodation where a king-size bed awaits and an adjacent shower room with WC.

Outside you have a small yet private courtyard area with seating and views over the surrounding fields which are often occupied by sheep, or the owners’ alpacas which you can help to feed and pet by arrangement. Your four-legged friends will love the adjacent paddock where they can run off lead. Glorious views can also be enjoyed from the grounds, all in all a superb central location to explore North Devon at any time of year.

Stag cottage was a beautiful comfy and homely cottage with spectacular views across the valley, we were blessed with spectacular weather and could sit out in the seating area of an evenings. Our hosts were really friendly who let us meet and feed the Alpacas and goats. The bedding, linen and towels were really good quality, the bed was SO comfy thaRead moret gave a real sense of luxury, that we wanted to spend relaxing evening there. We would absolutely recommend a stay here as a base to explore all North Devon has to offer. This little bit of North Devon luxury is a real treat. Hide
