On the outskirts of Exeter, not far from South Devon’s delightful coastline, this barn conversion cottage offers a romantic base for guests to explore the county. Exeter city centre is just 5 miles away, with exciting architecture, a rich history, and winding cobbled streets lined with independent shops and eateries. As a foodie capital of the South West, the city is renowned for its quality restaurants and food-serving pubs. Work up an appetite with hikes, bike rides and other outdoor adventures on Dartmoor, around 10 miles away. Known for its rugged landscape and unbridled beauty, Dartmoor offers an abundance of rivers, waterfalls and vast moorlands to explore. Similarly beautiful, the traditional seaside towns dotted along the Devon coastline include Dawlish (8.5 miles), Teignmouth (11 miles) and Exmouth (8.5 miles).

Spacious, clean and contemporary, this fabulous cottage invites you to feel at home from the moment you arrive. All on one level, the layout centres around an open-plan, L-shaped living space. A bespoke, fitted kitchen is located on one side of the room, with a handy dining table nearby. After dinner, settle down for a board game at the table, ask the Alexa speaker to play some tunes or relax on the sofas and switch on the Smart TV for an evening of entertainment. The two bedrooms are located along the hallway: one a cosy single, and the other a spacious king-size with ample room for unpacking your belongings. A bright, invigorating bathroom, with both a shower and a bath, completes the cottage’s offering.

Enjoy your morning coffee or bistro dining out on the enclosed decked area.

We had a great week at Chaff House. Helen was friendly, welcoming and helpful. The accommodation is immaculate. Very clean, comfortable and well equipped. Its even more spacious than the photos show and there was plenty of room for us and our two toddlers (one in a travel cot). The farm is a fantastic place for anyone but would particularlyRead more appeal to those with young families. The massive covered play barn is absolutely brilliant (perfect for rainy days) - our three year old was thrilled to bits and especially loved the orange elephant slide and huge sandpit. Our almost two year old loved the summer meadow, especially the donkeys (Basil and Barney) and chickens. And the ice-cream is really excellent too! The farm is easily accessible - very close to Exeter and well placed to explore all Devon has to offer. We wouldnt hesitate in recommending it. Thanks Helen! Hide
