The Vicar's Rest

Holiday Rental Description

Though tweaked to reflect the modern era, this old rectory in the Devon countryside maintained all its best features – think church windows and statement fireplaces. But the inside isn't even the best bit. With sweeping views of the lush green valley, the garden is waiting with a private swimming pool – an easy way to deal with not having an air-conditioner – a tennis court, and an alfresco dining space. Explore further afield by strolling to quaint Berrynarbor, walking to the Broadsands beach, or visiting Ilfracombe Golf Club. Need to catch up on work? There's a study here, and the rest of the family can seek entertainment in the basement, where they'll find table football and a private dancefloor.
