Make the most of the outdoor space at this home by enjoying alfresco meals on the decking area and treating yourself to indulgent dips in the hot tub. This pretty lodge is surrounded by fields and farmland, making it an excellent location from which to explore the Devon countryside. There are public footpaths and bridleways within walking distance, and many picturesque trails to follow within the surrounding area. The North Devon coast is also just over two miles away, meaning you can hop in a car to reach the surfing hub of Saunton Sands, the pretty dunes of Croyde Beach and the colourful beach huts of Woolacombe. And, when you come back home after your adventures, there's no better place to curl up than in the wood-panelled living room – we recommend savouring some Devon scones with cream and jam as you do.
