Nestled in the charming hamlet on the outskirts of Langtree, Devon, this property offers a delightful retreat for two, featuring a hot tub and a wealth of nearby attractions. The accommodation is attached to the owner's traditional Devon longhouse, making it an inviting and cozy space. Guests can explore the scenic Tarka Trail for walking and cycling, while the stunning North Devon coast, known for its long stretches of golden sand, is just a short drive away. Popular beach spots like Westward Ho!, Croyde Bay, Saunton, and Woolacombe are all easily accessible, with distances ranging from 11 to 27 miles. For those interested in local history, the town of Great Torrington, only 4 miles away, offers insights into its significant ties to the English Civil War.
The interior of the property is designed to provide a bright and airy atmosphere, highlighted by high ceilings and exposed beams. Upon entering, guests are welcomed into an open plan lounge/kitchen/diner where character features such as exposed stonework and a striking high-level glass window create an inviting ambiance.
