A beautifully-restored Georgian farmhouse at the end of a lane, with ancient pastures and orchards filled with wildflowers and streams

Come for peace and space, a sitting room with a large open fire, plenty of chairs and sofas, antiques, books and board games. There's a separate study with a desk for those who need to work, a snug with a cinema for escapees and a big hall with a hidden cocktail cabinet and an under stairs fridge. Something for everyone! The kitchen/dining room is well kitted out with two ovens, a separate pantry and a table which easily seats twelve plus two children. You're left with organic milk and butter in the fridge, a sourdough loaf, drinks and mixers in the bar - you'll even find a treat for your dog.

Bedrooms come in a mix of doubles, a twin and a bunk room with extra pull-out beds; bathrooms are brand new, the views soar in every direction over rolling pastures. Outdoors you'll find seating areas at front and back, a games barn with table football and table tennis and seven acres to explore.

You're in a rural spot on the outskirts of the village and five miles to a farm shop.

Local points of interest from Anna Kenny:

Puntos de interés sobre la región de
Anna Kenny:

  • The Cotley Inn is an exceptional local with outdoor terrace and a converted horse box serving wood-fired pizzas
  • We are near the coast at Lyme Regis - after a morning of fossil hunting head to Mark Hix's Oyster and Fish House or indulge in Baboo Gelato, which is handmade locally
  • Beaminster is a perfect spot for lunch – we suggest booking Brassica, which has a delicious menu and a homewares shop across the street
  • Our meadows haven't been touched with pesticides and fertilisers; you'll see all sorts of wildflowers, butterflies and birds. Follow the footpath straight up into the Blackdown Hills AONB
  • A trip to Devon isn't complete without a shopping day in Exeter. Visit the Cathedral, have lunch at Harry's and wander down to the Quay
  • There are so many beautiful river walks nearby – you might even spot an otter
