The Artist Barn - Self-catering in Devon
Thorne Farm
Buckland Brewer, Bideford, EX39 5NA, Devon
England,
Regno Unito
Ania and Henry want to foster creativity here. You have your own peaceful corner of their small farm as a restful retreat and the interiors are stunning: carefully collected mid-century furniture, soft colours, a thoughtful library and a Danish wood-burner. You’ll also find picnic baskets, blankets and games, and if you fall in love with a piece of art you can buy it and take it home.
Even if the weather turns nasty you’ll be very happy indoors surrounded by so many lovely things – all inspired by the landscape surrounding you and all there to make you feel at ease.
You're free to wander the Circle Garden, filled with plants guided by Piet Oudolf books. Walks are plentiful along narrow lanes with the village of Buckland Brewer in the distance.

Local points of interest from Ania & Henry Trew:
Punti d'interesse locali da
Ania & Henry Trew:
- Enjoy 'Hot & Cold' Therapy in the stunning wild spa sauna - all guests get a 50% discount on 75mins private hire sessions.
- Peace & Quiet. We are a tiny site with three unique places to stay. Each space enjoys total privacy. Next to the barn a ancient beech tree sits next to the barn, providing the perfect shady umbrella to relax in the hammock chair under its branches.
- We love exploring the secret beaches along the NW Devon coastline, all connected by the SW coastal path. Including Peppercoombe, Bucks Mills, Clovelly & Hartland. Most of the stretch is managed by the National Trust and Woodland Trust and is truly magical.
- Jewellery Workshop: Join Praktyka co-foudner and artist Ania Wawrzkowicz in her studio to learn the ancient craft of 'lost wax' carving to design your own unique piece of jewellery. Guests get a 15% discount.
- You are a 15 mins drive away from the vast sandy beach of Westward Ho. Perfect for swimming, sandcastle building and surf lesssons. Explore the new visitor centre and Pebble ridge cafe for refreshments.
- We run a programme of workshops here at Praktyka, led by co-founder Ania, these include jewellery making using the ancient technique of 'lost wax casting' & 'sandcasting.' She also runs nature based cyanotype and lumen printing workshops.
