About this property
The Barn is a huge and comfortable, detached house on the farm. The open plan living area is vast, with big comfy sofas in the seating area, pool table and table football and a well equipped kitchen with dining area and central island. Accessed from here, to the front, is a private outside patio with table and chairs. On the ground level is a double bedroom with en suite shower room, little kitchenette/seating area and ramped entrance suitable for people with limited mobility. On the first floor are five bedrooms, all with en suite bathroom and TV. Outside is a big suntrap terrace with picnic benches and outdoor electric grill, a raised deck with 8-person hot tub, a children's play area (best suited for under 5's) and an enclosed paddock for games. This is a splendid house for fun gatherings of friends or family to relax or enjoy the outdoors. Note: This property is on the same farmstead as Lower Wadden Farmhouse and Annexe and Hiscox Cottage.
Beer is a small picturesque fishing village on the south Devon coast near Seaton. The shingle beach is very sheltered, backed by limestone cliffs and was once fertile smuggling territory, plus contraband was hidden in nearby caves, which are now a popular tourist attraction
