Burrows Cottage

Holiday Rental Description

This charming, barn-converted cottage is tucked away in Braunton village adjoining the rich sand dunes of Braunton Burrows which host a rich plant community of ferns and herbs.

This country cottage has all the features of a rural retreat by the sea, think clean tones with blue hues, high-beamed ceilings and reclaimed white-washed furnishings. When the sun is out, open up the french doors to the Juliette balcony to invite the coastal Devonshire breeze in, or spend lunch in the soft-lawned orchard surrounded by wildflowers. When the weather isn’t playing ball, spend afternoons on the cosy sofa with the log-burning fire and a movie classic. Come rain or shine, the kitchen is ready to spring into action for picnic preparation or family-style dinners around the wooden dining table.

If you’re venturing outside the cottage, prepare for an abundance of choices - surfing lessons down on Saunton Beach (eight minutes away), cycling along the Tarka Trail, exploring the woodlands of Exmoor National Park (twenty-five minutes by car) or indulging in a local pub lunch. Surrounded by rolling countryside hills and stunning Jurassic beaches, you’ll find tranquillity and exploration in equal measure.
