Grade II listed, this Devon home is the perfect base for a family or group of friends who want plenty of space to stretch out. With sprawling grounds to explore and access to a beach, the home is ideal for children and nature lovers. Closer to home, the private terrace allows for alfresco dining, and the shared tennis court and croquet lawn, along with the home's game room, offer plenty of distractions. You can hire a private chef through your host, too – the best way to enjoy the home's stately dining table, if you ask us. And if you've got a few more guests you'd like to bring, the neighbouring wing may also be available for bookings.

Home truths:
*If you are travelling with children, your host can provide two travel cots and a high chair.
*You might bump into other guests on the grounds during your stay.
*The bedrooms are all upstairs here. One of the super-king beds can be turned into a twin on request.
*The bed linen is changed weekly and housekeeping is included twice weekly.
*You have access to the shared tennis court, grounds, and beach here while enjoying your own private terrace.
*We recommend bringing a car. There’s plenty of free private off-road parking. You'll also find a 7w Type 2 EV charging point, although you'll need your own cable.
*You might find that the phone signal is patchy from time to time.
