The Haybarton Cottage

About this property

Lose yourself in the breathtaking beauty of the East Devon countryside in this spectacular holiday home near Honiton. Sleeping six guests, the elegant property makes a great base for a special family get-together or memorable holiday with friends, thanks to its vast social spaces both indoors and outside. The immediate surrounding area is a paradise for walkers, and you’ll also be just 15 miles from the Jurassic Coast.

The luxurious barn conversion beautifully combines original features, such as exposed beams and stonework, with contemporary furniture and indulgent creature comforts. After a day of outdoor adventure, return to your cosy abode to unwind in the fabulous lounge, which features a vaulted ceiling, countryside views and a roaring wood burner. Heading down the hallway, you’ll reach the farmhouse-style kitchen/diner. This sociable space – again with spectacular views – has all the equipment and worktop space needed to cater for a large group, and a dining table to seat everyone. Completing the ground floor is a charming twin bedroom, with an en-suite shower room and patio doors leading to the outside space. The remaining bedrooms are upstairs, both of which have en-suite facilities. The shared garden, occupying an impressive 5 acres, is a haven of tranquillity, with areas for al fresco dining, a BBQ, and a children’s play area.

The lively market town of Honiton is 5 miles away and has a great selection of eateries, as well as antique stores and art galleries to potter around. From the town, stroll along the River Otter or head to the nearby beauty spots of Hembury Hillfort or Blackbury Camp. For a day at the seaside, journey to the idyllic coastal town of Lyme Regis (15.5 miles), where you can hunt for fossils on the beach, play in the arcades, and eat fish and chips on the promenade.
