Escape to the edge of Exmoor National Park and revel in a family-friendly stay just a stone's throw from the unspoiled moorlands, award-winning beaches and perfect peeling waves of North Devon.

This well-appointed lodge brings an inviting open layout and a touch of style to this breathtaking countryside setting, making it ideal for families looking to spend quality time together. In addition to the comfortable seating area, a wrap-around balcony ensures ample space for four, whatever the weather decides. At the same time, the gently bubbling private hot tub is perfect for post-surf soaks.

Finally, a fully equipped kitchen is convenient for self-sufficient stays, with the award-winning Coach House brasserie on hand for those evenings when you don't feel like cooking. Alternatively, for less formal fare, eating fish and chips off your lap as you look out over the sea is hard to top.

Home truths:
*Child-friendly amenities such as a cot and highchair are available upon request

*The lodge is set over one level, so it may be suitable for guests with more limited mobility

*Check yourself in on arrival with the lockbox

*A car is essential to explore the area fully – there's allocated parking for one car, plus a small amount of unreserved parking

*The decking isn't fully enclosed, so children and dogs will need to be supervised

*The second bedroom can be configured as either a twin or king-size double on request

*There are several lodges on the site – although all are furnished and laid out identically, each one is positioned differently within the grounds and may differ slightly from the photos
