Barn in North Devon Torrington, Devon

Holiday Rental Description

This barn conversion property enjoys a wonderful rural location, close to the village of Buckland Brewer in the North Devonshire countryside. There are many welcoming pubs in the villages surrounding the property, as well as a wider range of eateries in the attractive harbour town of Bideford, which is just seven miles away. Not only does this popular town offer a range of independent shops, pubs and restaurants, but it is also the home of the MS Oldenburg: a 1950s built ferry which now takes visitors out to Lundy, a stunningly wild island situated in the Bristol Channel offering a diverse range of wildlife and a large number of interesting historic buildings and ruins. For those who prefer to stay on dry land, other attractions in the area include RHS Rosemoor, the two mile stretch of beach at Westward Ho! and The Milky Way Adventure Park. Guests who choose to stay at this property are in for a real treat as it offers a high standard of accommodation, peaceful privacy and a range of leisure amenities. On entering this handsome barn conversion into the welcoming hallway, guests will immediately be able to make themselves at home in the impressive lounge/kitchen/diner, with its exposed stone wall, light giving French windows and cosy woodburner. Deep sofas provide plenty of space to sit back and relax, perhaps whilst planning the week ahead, or maybe with a film on the TV/DVD. Behind the seating area a large dining table acts as a division between the lounge and kitchen areas, allowing guests to enjoy spending time together, even when they are preparing food.
