Savour the style and sophistication of this sun-soaked Devon lodge. Sleeping four guests, the appealing, two-bedroom, dog-friendly abode nestles in glorious, rural surroundings at Fairy Cross, 5.5 miles from Bideford. Paddle in the sea at secluded Peppercombe Beach, 3 miles away, then return to soak up the sunshine and the scenery from your tranquil garden.
Enter the single-storey property to discover exquisitely finished, light-filled accommodation. The open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner, which has a vaulted ceiling and French windows, is where you will spend much of your downtime. Prepare home-cooked meals in the sleek kitchen, where there are skylight windows, using the delicious Devon produce you have sourced. Congregate at the table for celebratory feasts and unwind together on the soft mustard-coloured seating in front of the Smart TV. At the end of each day away together, savour a restorative night’s sleep. There is a king-size bedroom and a super-king-size room, both with the luxury of en-suite shower rooms and Smart TVs. The super-king-size has zip-and-link beds that can also be made up as a twin if discussed at booking. Spill out onto the substantial patio on sunny days. Recline with a cold drink in a lounger or have afternoon tea on the comfortable outdoor furniture. Play games with any children or pets on your private lawns, supervising them at all times, as the owners, who live next door, have an unfenced pond. There is private parking here for two cars, 25 metres from the lodge.
Grab your backpack and stride out along a section of the South West Coast Path, 2.5 miles away. Head into Bideford to shop in the Pannier Market or dine out.
