Is Garden Cottage Right For Your Group

Discover why this cottage is the one for your party or family reunion...

For Families
Garden Cottage works for families with older children who appreciate countryside walks and outdoor exploration. The private garden provides safe outdoor space whilst footpaths from the barn lead into farmland and hills. The single-storey layout means no stairs to worry about. Crealy Theme Park sits 8 miles away for full days out. The rural setting offers peace rather than dedicated play facilities.
Groups Will Love...
The exposed timber beams and original stone walls define Garden Cottage's barn character. These features run throughout the open-plan living space where thick stonework frames the kitchen and dining areas. The beams cross the vaulted ceiling above the seating area. Barn doors with original ironwork open from the living room onto the garden. The wood-burning stove sits against stone walls that would have formed the original barn structure.
Pet Friendly
Garden Cottage does not accept pets. The barn sits within working farmland where livestock may be present in surrounding fields. The rural location and footpath access would otherwise suit dogs well. The enclosed garden provides secure outdoor space. However, the owners' policy means you'll need to leave four-legged companions at home. Several other barn conversions in East Devon do welcome dogs if this is essential for your stay.
