About the property

Nestled in a peaceful valley on the edge of Exmoor's North Devon coast and one of six holiday homes on the site, Puffin Cottage provides a peaceful retreat for two. Enjoy an open-plan living space that's designed for spending quality time together, a cosy wood-burning stove and scenic walking routes for you and your four-legged friend. Should you wish to explore the area, the estate offers many family-friendly facilities, or you can explore a selection of stunning beaches, including Barricane Beach and Woolacombe.


The space

This delightful stone cottage is located in a courtyard with two other cottages and the shared indoor swimming pool. At the front of the property, you will have access to a bistro set where you can sit and relax with a fresh morning coffee.



As you step through the stable door, you will be greeted by an open-plan kitchen/dining/living room. The kitchen provides everything you should need including an electric oven, an induction hob, a fridge/freezer, a microwave and a dishwasher. Meanwhile, the two-seater dining table provides the perfect setting to enjoy meals together with views across the courtyard.



The elegantly designed living room is a particularly cosy space. Relax on the comfortable sofa with your favourite programme on the Smart TV and the ambience of the crackling wood-burning stove.



Upstairs, there is one beautifully decorated king-size bedroom with a cot room attached, so you and your baby are guaranteed a good night's sleep. There is also a separate wet room with a walk-in shower.

Shared facilities

You will have access to a host of on-site leisure facilities that are shared by guests of all cottages:
