Woodpecker Lodge

Butterleigh, Devon

Located in the picturesque rural village of Butterleigh, Devon, Woodpecker Lodge is an impeccably presented holiday retreat that accommodates up to four guests across two beautifully decorated bedrooms. Situated on an 80-acre working family farm, which has been owned by the same family for three generations, this lodge offers visitors a unique opportunity to experience farm life up close, especially during the vibrant lambing season in March and April. Guests can easily access the lodge with ample off-road parking, allowing them to immerse themselves in the fresh Devon air and stunning countryside views right from the start of their holiday.

The lodge features an inviting open-plan living space that creates a warm and welcoming atmosphere. It includes a spacious sitting area with a stylish corner sofa positioned in front of a Smart TV, complemented by patio doors that provide breathtaking views of the surrounding landscape. The modern kitchen is fully equipped, making it a delight for the designated chef to prepare meals for the family.

Woodpecker Lodge boasts two elegantly presented bedrooms, including a super-king and a twin, both featuring patio doors that lead outside. The master bedroom includes an en-suite bathroom, while a family shower room is available to avoid morning queues. The serene environment allows guests to wake up to the soothing sounds of nature, and after enjoying a leisurely coffee on the decking, they can explore the scenic walks and hikes in the surrounding countryside. The nearby village of Silverton and the town of Tiverton provide a taste of traditional English life with their charming pubs, independent shops, and historical landmarks like Tiverton Castle and the Grand Western Canal.
