About this property
This beautiful barn nestles in the hamlet of Littleham, hosting a wonderful local pub and sits just off the North Devon coastline. Less than 2 miles will bring you onto the A39, sitting you within easy reach of the area’s top coastal spots, including an array of golden sands and turquoise waters. Walking enthusiasts are well catered for with wonderful walking routes from your doorstep as well as the Southwest coast path accessible close by, allowing you to enjoy the crackle of twigs beneath your feet before retreating to the hot tub at the end of the day. Visit the pretty fishing villages of Appledore (6 miles) and Clovelly (11 miles) where you will find a lovely choice of local shops and fine eateries to enjoy. For a livelier atmosphere, Westward Ho! is certainly worth a visit just 4 miles away, with its beautiful sandy beach stretching 1.5 miles long, as well as amusements and further fine eateries.
Upon arrival at this simply stunning home, you will be wowed by the views across the countryside straight from your own entertainment space. Step inside this glass fronted, single floor home where you will be drawn to the large open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, which is flooded with natural light from the floor to ceiling windows that frame the rolling fields beyond. The lounge area is well furnished with a comfortable corner sofa allowing you to cosy up and enjoy your favourite films on the Smart TV. The kitchen is beautifully equipped providing a range of mod-cons and everything you will need and more for a relaxing and stress-free stay whilst the dining table also sits all guests with ease allowing you to wine, dine and share those special memories of the holiday with friends and family. Sandy beach days and muddy walks mean beach towels, wetsuits, welly boots and coats so at the entrance is an additional utility room complete with washing machine, as well as a coat and boot rack being opposite. When the night draws in, retreat to your choice of four fabulously styled bedrooms, providing a mix of 2 double beds, a twin room and of course a master with king-size bed and accompanying en suite shower room. All bedrooms host plenty of wardrobe and hanging space. Completing this incredible home is the family bathroom, hosting a rainfall shower over bath and WC.
Stepping outside to the rear of the home guests can further enjoy the vast countryside views from their very own choice of comfortable and dining seating on the terrace, in addition to a spacious lawn. A perfect space for al-fresco breakfast or that gleaming sunset BBQ. Not only that, but a bubbling hot tub awaits here as the perfect treat after a day exploring the coast. Private off-road parking provided for four cars.
