Tucked away in the picturesque North Devon countryside, bordering the rugged beauty of Exmoor National Park and a short drive from the area's outstanding beaches, this welcoming lodge provides an idyllic family-friendly getaway.
With large French doors that swing open to the outdoors, the home provides a seamless connection with nature, whatever the weather. Should the sun be shining, an expansive terrace offers a front-row seat to awe-inspiring lake and countryside views. Wintry stays are no less memorable, with a fire to warm yourself beside after muddy walks over the moors with your four-legged friends. Whatever the time of year, a private hot tub makes for soothing post-surf sessions, romantic sundowners and breathtaking stargazing opportunities.
Stock up on great local produce for mouthwatering home-cooked meals. Alternatively, the award-winning on-site restaurant, the brasserie-style Coach House, offers a fine dining alternative should you fancy a night off. Finally, for a unique experience, head down to nearby Barricane Beach to eat authentic Sri Lankan curry off your lap as you gaze out over the sea.
