Berry's Barn, located in the charming village of Colyton, Devon, is a beautifully converted holiday accommodation that can comfortably sleep up to eight guests across four bedrooms. This remarkable transformation of a former cider press farm building combines modern luxury with rustic charm, making it an ideal retreat for families or groups seeking a peaceful getaway. Nestled in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, the property is conveniently situated just a short drive from the breathtaking Jurassic coast, renowned for its stunning geological features and scenic landscapes.
The barn has been meticulously refurbished by the owners, who run the working farm, ensuring a high-quality living experience that retains much of the original character of the building. Guests can enjoy the benefits of contemporary amenities, including pristine new bathrooms and a state-of-the-art kitchen, while also appreciating the historical elements incorporated into the design, such as the preserved farm machinery artifacts displayed in the rafters. The outdoor spaces, complete with seating areas and a games room, provide additional opportunities for relaxation and entertainment, making it a versatile choice for any season.
Colyton, with its rich history dating back to Saxon times, offers a picturesque backdrop for visitors. The nearby Axe River and estuary enhance the area's natural beauty, inviting outdoor enthusiasts to explore the unspoiled countryside. The famous South West Coast Path is also within reach, providing walkers with spectacular views over Lyme Bay. The local community is home to several public houses that serve delicious, locally sourced food and drinks, allowing guests to savor the flavors of the region during their stay.
For nature lovers, the Axe Estuary Wetlands, a well-managed wildlife reserve, is just a short drive away. This area is a sanctuary for a diverse range of bird species, which can be observed from various hides located throughout the reserve. The combination of Berry's Barn's luxurious accommodations, the area's rich history, and the abundance of outdoor activities makes it a perfect destination for those looking to connect with nature while enjoying the comforts of a modern holiday home.
