Property code: OC-G28880

This wonderful escape nestles on the grounds of the owner’s home, yet privacy is assured with your own private driveway and enclosed garden space. Set on the outskirts of Bideford and surrounded by picturesque farmland, there are many enjoyable walking routes straight from your doorstep, allowing you to enjoy the sound of cracking twigs underfoot on those many countryside treks. For those looking to relax on the beach whilst the sandcastle architects get to work, you'll be happy to hear the surfing beach of Westward Ho! and the sand dunes of Instow are both within 5 miles, amongst many other golden sands and turquoise waters close by. The fishing village of Appledore is worth a visit as are attractions including RHS Rosemoor (5.5 miles), The Milky Way Adventure and Wake Parks (13 miles) and the charming village of Clovelly (15.5 miles) with its steep, cobbled streets leading to the pretty harbour.

Stepping up into this homely countryside retreat you will soon notice the idyllic blend of character, period features and style. The opening porch space is perfect to slip off those walking boots after a day of trekking across the surrounding trails. Venturing further into the home will bring you to the traditional living area, which sits two comfortable sofas plus two additional armchairs from which to enjoy the crackle and pop from the roaring wood burner, a perfect match with the Smart TV on those chillier nights. Next door to the lounge, you’ll find your own private games room complete with a pool table and further comfortable seating, the ideal way to settle any holiday debate, or just feed that competitive edge we know we all have. Passing through the dining space will bring you to the tastefully renovated kitchen which has all the appliances needed for a stress-free stay, with a shower room next door completing the downstairs. When the night draws in, make your way up the stairway which will bring you to the three bedrooms. These are made up of a King,  a double bed and finally a twin room, all of which providing ample clothing space. Completing this home from home is the upstairs bathroom, housing a bath, separate shower and WC.

Stepping outside from the kitchen, you will be greeted with an incredibly spacious garden with far reaching views over North Devon. There is plenty to do whilst making the most of these views including your own private hot tub, the perfect spot to soak and enjoy a Devon sunset. Whilst children can enjoy burning some energy on the play equipment provided, including swings and a climbing frame.
