  • Stone built, spacious and full of unique features
  • Excellent facilities including a wheelchair lift to the first floor 
Property code: OC-STABLY

This stunning stable mews has been lovingly converted with oak staircase and plenty of space for two families wishing to holiday together. It also has excellent facilities for people with restricted mobility, including a wheelchair lift from the ground floor to the bedrooms, a ground floor wet room. There are four spacious bedrooms, two on each side of the staircase and two bathrooms. The attractive lounge has comfy seating and cosy log burner in inglenook fireplace, perfect for enjoying a glass of wine with friends or family. Both the lounge and the kitchen have patio doors out on to the enclosed courtyard garden, ideal for children and pets to play. The well-equipped kitchen offers ample space for families or groups of friends to dine together, and the handy utility room is a welcomed additional space. There is private parking for 1 car within the gates of the property, however an additional space is available next to the garages, which is all within a secure gated system. The Stables really does offer high quality accommodation, allowing up to three pets and located in one of the most picturesque locations in North Devon, we are certain you will not be disappointed. The village of Lynton itself is in an area known as England’s Little Switzerland. This Victorian village has a lovely selection of shops, tea-rooms and cafés and boasts The Lyn and Exmoor Museum which is housed in St Vincent’s Cottage. It has some interesting exhibitions of Exmoor life, including information about the local lifeboat and the Lynton and Barnstaple Railway. Both Lynton and Lynmouth owe a great deal to Sir George Newnes, who in 1887 along with Thomas Hewitt, began to lay a 900 foot twin track up the steep gradient between the two villages. The unique water operated cliff railway was opened in 1890 and, apart from needing new track in 1908, operates now as it always has.

We had another fantastic stay at The Stables in Lynton. Its a lovely place, perfect for both people and pets, and its well set up for disabled access and living. The downstairs area is spacious and comfortable, while upstairs, the accommodation is cleverly split into two wings, each with two bedrooms and a bathroomideal for families or groups. IRead morets incredibly well-equipped with everything you could possibly need, and I have to say, the presentation was immaculate (and I do mean immaculatenot a speck of dirt anywhere!). I could quite happily move in permanently. Lynton and Lynmouth have long been our go-to UK holiday destination, offering a little bit of everythingstunning scenery, fantastic walks, and friendly people. The local shops and restaurants are great, and we always treat ourselves to a takeaway from The Spicy Mare, which wed highly recommend. The Stables is a hidden gem and makes for a really enjoyable holiday. Its also a great base for exploring further afield, with plenty of options for day trips to other coastal destinations and places of interest nearby. Well definitely be back! Hide

A well designed comfortable cottage situated in a very convenient location. For a winter holiday the property was warm and cosy with the addition of a wood burning stove. The kitchen was well equipped and perfect for entertaining a large group.

This is an impeccable property. Well equipped and comfortable as well as having the wow factor. A big plus is that the owner welcomes dogs. We met the man who maintains the property and he is an asset- very personable and knowledgeable about the area. The house is also situated in a convenient spot - across the road from the funicular railway anRead mored less than a minute from super coffee spots, shops and restaurants. The lovely and unique Lynton cinema is well worth a visit. So many fabulous walks from the front door. Absolutely recommended. Hide
