Dog friendly holiday cottage, sleeps 6 - Berrynarbor, Devon

This lovingly converted barn situated on a family-run farm has a stunning decorative finish both inside and out, as well as an enclosed garden and a private hot tub. The barn, located on the outskirts of the village of Berrynarbor is one of two properties on the farm, which can be rented together to create a larger eight-bedroom property. With room to sleep up to six guests and within walking distance of charming villages and sandy beaches, this property is the perfect place for both friends and families to experience North Devon.

A combination of cottage charm and contemporary simplicity is seen throughout the property. Open-tread wooden stairs take you to the four bedrooms on the first floor, all of which feature an overhead skylight and have some limited head height. The king-size master bedroom benefits from the use of the en-suite bathroom with a bath, separate shower cubicle and WC.

The ground floor features not only an ornamental stone fireplace and exposed beams but also recessed downlights and a stylish kitchen with swathes of chrome. French doors allow passage from the living room out onto the patio area, where you can slip into the hot tub or fire up the BBQ in the evening. Heading 1 mile toward the coast you will reach the beach at Sandy Bay, which can be followed to find the picturesque village of Combe Martin and some incredible views of the cliffside.

This village, which is 2 miles by car, is a quaint gem with five local pubs, superb fish and chips and an ice cream parlour. Exmoor National Park (8 miles) and the seaside town of Ilfracombe (5 miles) are also within easy reach.
