About this property

The Old Milking Shed is an immaculately presented, beautifully converted barn. Just a 15 minute walk from the popular sandy beach of Bantham, and a five minute 'stagger' from the 14th Century pub, The Sloop, the property has been sensitively developed as an annex to the adjacent owner's accommodation, sleeping up to six adults. Original features including stonework and oak beams have been retained, whilst contemporary fittings, the latest appliances and beautiful bathrooms have been added to create a stylish coastal retreat. The property offers a sociably-located kitchen with Siemens appliances, and open-plan living/dining areas perfect for entertaining, including a comfortable sitting room with wood-burning stove for cosy nights in, and a delightful sunroom for enjoying your morning coffee! The accommodation is presented over two floors, with three good sized bedrooms (including the master bedroom on the ground floor), all offering stylish en suite facilities. With a private, South-West facing garden, plenty of parking for 2-3 cars and a small dinghy or boat trailer, and an outside shower for rinsing off sandy dogs or children after a day at the beach, the property makes the ideal base for a seaside break all year round.

    In a well appointed home that would be hard to surpass and that's located in a spot equally so. The welcome wine, olives and local chilli jam were very appreciated after a very long drive, Instructions for the house were detailed and left nothing to chance. It was lovely to meet Guy the owner and we wish he and his wife Lisa, all the very best for the future. We hope to stay again!
