Description

Discover the charm of rural North Devon with a stay at Heather Cottage Guest Suite, an idyllic retreat nestled in the tranquility of the countryside. This cosy and self-contained suite occupies half of the ground floor of a 200-year-old almshouse, offering a quaint bedsit adorned with modern amenities like a TV and Netflix to keep you entertained after a day of exploration.



The suite is compact yet thoughtfully equipped, making it an ideal haven for solo adventurers or couples. You'll find comfort in the well-appointed bathroom featuring both a bath and an over-bath shower, perfect for unwinding. The The kitchenette is small but thoughtfully equipped.



For ease of access, there is an external key-safe, allowing you to come and go as you please without any hassle. While the guest suite doesn't include its own garden space, guests are welcome to enjoy moments of serenity by arrangement in the owner's garden—a peaceful spot for reading or sipping coffee under the sun.



Parking is made simple with space available alongside the property just for you. An outdoor tap offers practicality for those returning from adventures with wetsuits or muddy boots needing a rinse before heading inside.



Heather Cottage sits peacefully in a village that embraces simplicity—without shops or pubs—but what it lacks in amenities, it makes up for in its escape from light and noise pollution. The bustling town center of Barnstaple is conveniently located just a 10-minute drive away.



Adventure seekers will delight in being only 25 minutes from pristine beaches, close to the Tarka Trail for cycling or walking, and within reach of Exmoor's breathtaking landscapes. Situated within a UNESCO designated Biosphere near Braunton Burrows, this area is abundant with wild nature waiting to be discovered.
