Overview
Property code: 91071

Escape to this countryside cottage with friends and family in tow for a tranquil retreat on the edge of Exmoor National Park. With a delightful farmhouse feel and a fantastic games room with plenty to entertain all ages, this property is perfect for multi-generational holidays or reunions with friends. Benefitting from the best of the coast and the countryside, you can spend a day soaking up the natural beauty of the region, strolling through dense woodland before taking a stroll down to the beach at Lee Bay (11 miles).

The heart of the home is the living room/diner, where traditional styling and modern updates, including a feature fireplace, offer a cosy environment for a relaxing evening spent with loved ones. Next door, the snug lounge is a great place to find peace and quiet to read a book by the glow of the wood burner, or to allow the teenagers to enjoy a little time for themselves. With a ten-seater table ensuring plenty of space for home-cooked feasts and a kitchen equipped with everything you need, you’ll have plenty of opportunities to bond over your favourite dishes. What’s more, the village shop and pub are just 1.5 miles away for additional supplies. Unleash your competitive side in the garage games room, or head outside to the spacious enclosed garden whilst the sun is shining to play on the lawn. A separate outdoor seating area offers an idyllic spot to catch a sunset or gaze up at the stars at night.

Would recommend this property if you want a family and friends holiday, plenty of room for everyone and decorated lovely. Also The Saw Mills restaurant and pub is a must for a visit. Already miss it as it was like home from home but with a much better view.

This is an outstanding property, beautifully presented, comprehensively equipped and with that wow factor that sets it apart. The downstairs bedroom with its own sitting room was an unexpected bonus. All the other bedrooms with en-suite facilities were comfortable and well heated. The family dining sitting TV room was beyond any superlatives. The aRead morebility to tune the lighting was just beyond belief and the owners have created something that is just outstanding. All that and fabulous views. Hide

We were also fortunate to have had good weather from 9th to 16th September 2023 which obviously added to the wonderful experience.

The weather was not good but it didnt affect the enjoyment of our family holiday in this wonderful holiday home. The standard of comfort, cleanliness & situation was first class. We wish we could have made more use of the very large grounds but our 2 dogs had a wonderful time running around. The views are exceptional towards the sea & coastline. ThRead moree games room was a brilliant addition & very much appreciated by the younger members of our family. Many thanks to the owners who were so helpful. Hide

Picture perfect from the moment we arrived, clean, comfortable and so homely we didnt want to leave . Great for the adults, great for the kids & good for the dogs (but be aware you cannot leave the dogs alone in the property which wasnt stated in the description) but we had an amazing time & will definitely return in the future.

From the driveway, going past the sheepup to the farm house, the location is idyllic. Words cannot describe the view and the photos do not do the house justice. The house itself was clean, very comfortable & well stocked with the necessities. We chose to sleep in the downstairs bedroom in order to wake up to the incredible view. I expect this propeRead morerty to be fully booked in the future as it really is exceptional. Hide

Lovely house in a lovely location. The Lounge is exceptional, and has views over Combe Martin. Would definitely recommend if you are looking for a quiet holiday. Good traditional village pub, Ye Old Globe Inn, Berrynarbor, 5 minutes drive away. Would definitely go again.
