About this property
Tucked at the edge of Exmoor National Park with an abundance of wildlife all around, this exquisite barn conversion offers an idyllic country escape. Accommodating six guests in three bedrooms, this dog-friendly holiday home has an abundance of space for relaxing and socialising, with open-plan living, a delightful sunroom, and two outdoor areas with far-reaching views. Perfectly placed to explore the stunning North Devon beaches and walk sections of the South West Coast Path, it’s a wonderful base for a family holiday or a getaway with friends.
Set on a south-facing slope amid North Devon countryside, the interiors of this two-storey holiday home are every bit as enchanting as its surroundings. Exposed beamed ceilings, wooden and slate floors, and sloping ceilings add character and charm. Underfloor heating, an electric car charger and high-quality fixtures and fittings ensure you’ll have everything you need for a comfortable stay. Enjoy sociable evenings filling the air with laughter and chatter in the open-plan living space. With a double range oven, the spacious kitchen is a dream to prepare meals in; dine inside or out with a dining table inside and a large table on the patio. Savour cosy evenings in the lounge, wood burner crackling on chilly days, settle in the sunroom with the bi-fold doors thrown open to admire the view, or sip a nightcap around the fire pit watching the stars in this Dark Sky Reserve. When night falls, get cosy in the downstairs king-size bedroom or head upstairs to two romantic bedrooms beneath the eaves, a king-size and a room with a double and single bed. Three shower rooms ensure that everybody can refresh with ease.
Discover magical moorlands, wooded glens, waterfalls and wildlife in Exmoor National Park, or set off to explore the North Devon coast. The sheltered bay at Coombe Martin (6 miles) is perfect for paddleboarding, kayaking and rock pooling, whereas Woolacoombe and Putsborough (both within 13.5 miles) are great for catching a wave or two. Lovers of historic homes will be delighted to visit Arlington Court (3 miles).

Exceptional accommodation. First class property. Everything required and more supplied for a self catering holiday. Safe outdoor space for the dogs and children alike. Great thought has gone into this holiday let with regard to the games and books supplied to occupy the children down to disability aids in the downstairs shower room. The hosts were at hand to answer any questions if needed. We have recommended this amazing property to family and friends and some have already booked. We would not hesitate to return. Thank you Tom Erica and Finbar for a great relaxing week away.

What a wonderful holiday home. Beautifully built and equipped with no expense spared. Everything is here. The hosts live next door, and are a delight. Available but not intrusive. We really enjoyed staying at The Tallet.
