Barnstaple cottage

This pretty 200-year-old cottage sleeps 4 guests in the hammlet of Bradiford, on the outskirts of Barnstaple, one of the oldest boroughs in England. Witness history as you walk into the town to discover an array of independent shops, restaurants, a cinema and a theatre. Within 12 miles you can visit Woolacombe which has an award-winning 3-mile-long sandy beach and Croyde is only 9 miles away. Both are known to be meccas for surfers and families wanting to an enjoy a day at the coast. Just over 20 miles away you can discover the magical moorlands of Exmoor or visit the villages of Lynton and Lynmouth to enjoy a bite to eat and a wander around the craft shops. Within 11 miles are other family attractions such as Combe Martin Dinosaur Park, or Watermouth Castle.

Step through the front door and into this cosy cottage and you will walk into the lounge that has original beams, a wood burner, sumptuous sofa and a Smart TV, great for relaxing on cooler evenings and nestling down to watch your favourite movies. At the rear of the cottage, you will discover a beautiful open-plan kitchen/diner with patio doors leading outside, a great place to socialise and cook up some of those new recipes whilst planning your fun-filled days ahead. The kitchen is equipped with a range-style electric oven and gas hob, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, microwave and washing machine. Stairs leading from the lounge take you up to the first floor where there are two bedrooms, one of which has a super-king zip-and-link bed (which can be made up as twin beds on request) and a super-king-size bedroom. The family bathroom has a shower over the bath and WC. Take the steep steps up to the top floor where you will find a quirky room with twin beds, TV and Xbox games console.

Venturing outside through the patio doors you will discover a fabulous south facing terraced garden with garden furniture and a charcoal BBQ. Here you can enjoy dining alfresco on those warm summer evenings. There is also an outside tap. Roadside parking directly outside subject to availability.
