This property is located within a small complex of properties, in a quiet corner of the beautiful Hartland Peninsula in North Devon, and enjoys nearby walks on the South West Coast Path, as it makes its way along the clifftops of this stretch of coastline, which is maintained by the National Trust. Just a few miles around the coast, the breath-taking Hartland Quay has an imposing lighthouse, a pebbled beach, and dramatic crashing waves which have claimed many a ship, some of which are remembered in the interesting shipwreck museum which overlooks the beach. The small village of Hartland is situated three miles inland and offers an small selection of shops, three pubs, a coffee shop, bakery and a collection of interesting galleries and craft workshops. There is something for every age range: surfing and sandcastle building at the popular beach resort of Westward Ho! (16 miles) or the opportunity to hire a rowing boat on the Bude canal (13 miles). Attractions for children nearby include the Milky Way Adventure Park and North Devon Wake/Aqua Park (7 miles) and The Big Sheep Adventure Park (14 miles) or if you wish to travel further a field the popular Cornish villages of Port Isaac (43 miles) Boscastle (32.5 miles) and Tintagel (36.5 miles) are a drive away.

This former-grain store has been lovingly converted to create a stunning holiday home. On entering the property, guests can’t help but be impressed by the sense of space and double-height ceiling with exposed beams. This is an open-plan space, comprising a lounge/kitchen/diner, allowing guests to easily enjoy spending time together.

Wooden stairs lead from the living area to a galleried landing which has been styled as an additional seating area, perfect for enjoying some quiet time with a good book. This also, holds the twin bedroom with separate WC and basin.

Outside, the property benefits from a generously-sized enclosed garden, which enjoys attractive views across the surrounding fields. The night skies on a clear night are truly spectacular as Hartland is one of the UK's Dark Sky Areas

If you enjoy a quiet, peaceful location, the cottage is ideal. If you want shops, pubs, restaurants, beaches etc, driving is essential. The cottage is comfortable, inviting and well equipped; ideal for a family with 3 kids, or, as relevant to us 2 couples and dogs (very dog friendly)! Would definitely recommend!

We spent a lovely week in Highfield Barn. It was beautifully quiet and peaceful and the excellent showers and comfy sofas were just what we wanted after a hard day climbing on the local cliffs.

Had a great stay with our 3 dogs. Well stocked kitchen with some really thoughtful touches (condiments, cleaning products and dog treats). Our 14 year old loved having the upstairs to herself, including the reading area on the mezzanine. It is remote but ideally placed for exploring the area. Would recommend.

Fantastic cottage with a great garden. Had everything we needed and was very comfortable. We all enjoyed our time there very much. Off the beaten track but suited us and other than the odd car coming towards us on the single track roads, posed no problems for us.

Lovely accommodation which has been finished to a high standard and very well equipped! Access via (bumpy) country lanes but great quiet location within walking distance to the coast. Great property and very clean!

This was a lovely place to stay & the best equipped holiday cottage we have ever booked. It was beautifully cleaned & presented - a real home from home in every respect. The enclosed garden was perfect to sit in after a day exploring & a good size for our little dog. The coastal path is easily accessible & spectacular. If youre walkers who like creRead moreature comforts, this is the place for you. If you prefer touring in the car, youd probably be better booking something closer to main roads. Hide
