Little Merryfield

This romantic retreat enjoys a peaceful, rural location amongst the North Devon countryside. The property is just 3 miles from the market town of Barnstaple and within 6 miles of the fabulous sandy beaches of the North Devon coast.

In the evenings, soak in the relaxing wood fired hot tub or toast marshmallows around the firepit. The striking holiday home has been exquisitely decorated and furnished, featuring elegant exposed woodwork, vibrant soft furnishings, and colourful paintwork.

The open plan lounge/kitchen/diner is a bright and airy space where you can prepare home cooked feasts in the stylish kitchen area and share mealtimes at the wooden dining table. At night, snuggle up on the sofa to watch the Smart TV in the glow of the wood burner.

Upstairs, an inviting king size bedroom is set under a sloping ceiling, with views across the garden. There is a single pull out bed in this room, and a sofa bed downstairs.

A contemporary bathroom completes the accommodation. Outside, the garden is a haven of tranquillity, with a luxurious wood fired hot tub on the decking area, surrounded by magical outdoor lighting to really set the mood.

There is also a double egg chair to relax in with a good book and a glass of wine. Beyond the decked area is an enclosed lawn and a second decked area overlooking the stream with a bistro set, firepit, and BBQ.

The cottage is in the village of Guineaford and you ll find some gorgeous walks in and around the village, as well as a popular pub (1 mile away) and the spectacular Marwood Hill Gardens. North Devon is renowned for its picture postcard beaches, and you can spend the day surfing, strolling along the shoreline, and building sandcastles at nearby Saunton Sands, Croyde, and Woolacombe (all within 6 miles).
