    “Our second visit and equally enjoyable.”

    Wonderful location for peace and quiet. Found 2 interesting local sites to explore on foot (short walks) - the reservoir which can be walked around (and fished I believe, with rod licence), though take great care with children, and a site of historical interest (left down the lane a short distance to a parking area and sign though no need to take the car!). A shortish walk through the woods to the site itself (red markers no longer present). Information boards explain history. Otherwise property ...

A shortish walk through the woods to the site itself (red markers no longer present). Information boards explain history. Otherwise property location is perfect from which to explore coastal locations north and west. Accommodation well appointed. Friendly and helpful owners.

The owners live in the neighbouring farmhouse and keep sheep and spring lambs which graze on the adjacent field. Tastefully renovated, these Great Torrington barn conversions are attached to each other and boast character features, such as oak doors, latch handles and exposed beams throughout, while the upside down accommodation enable guests to make the most of the superb countryside views from the open plan living area. Outside, a patio garden offers the perfect spot to enjoy an evening meal as the sun sets over the countryside.
