Wake up to the idyllic sound of paddling ducks and gently rippling water at this luxurious lodge. Combining boutique style and a stunning countryside setting, it's ideal for couples and families. The chic open-plan living area and kitchen are flooded with light, courtesy of the floor-to-ceiling bifold doors that run along the entire front side of the home and offer direct access to the wraparound sun deck, complete with its own hot tub. The kitchen is perfectly equipped for preparing sumptuous homecooked meals when you're not eating at the award-winning Coach House restaurant set within the manor house. Finally, two en-suite bedrooms offer a soothing space to unwind before drifting off. Located right on the edge of Exmoor National Park and no more than a twenty-minute drive from North Devon's stunning coastline, it's the perfect remote retreat.
