Devon Hideaway: Historic Barn, Jacuzzi & Expansive Exmoor Views

Welcome to Our Devon Hideaway!

Nestled deep within Devon's lush landscapes, our historic barn conversion offers a sublime blend of past elegance and present luxury. Once owned by the iconic band Hawkwind, our property now stands as a testament to timeless charm, gracefully merging with modern comforts.

Living Spaces Crafted for Comfort
As you step inside, a spacious lounge awaits, adorned with a smart TV and a crackling woodburning stove, casting its warm glow across the room. Generous windows drench the interiors in soft natural light, setting a tranquil tone for your stay.

Slumber in Style
Your nights promise serenity. Our master bedroom boasts a plush king-size bed, designed to whisk you away into dreamy slumbers. A double bed graces another room, while the third offers two single beds. For those needing additional space, our games room features a cozy futon.

A Culinary Heartbeat
The heart of any home lies in its kitchen. Ours stands out with a traditional AGA cooker, beckoning culinary enthusiasts to weave their gastronomic magic. Paired with modern amenities, every meal becomes an occasion.

Indulgence & Entertainment
Our games room emerges as the perfect antidote to a rainy day. Dive into its treasure trove of board games, lose yourself in captivating reads, or go digital with a PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, and a retro arcade machine teeming with over 3000 classics. Yet, the true jewel remains the breathtaking 30-mile Exmoor views, best enjoyed while unwinding in our 7-seater jacuzzi.

Outdoor Euphoria
Step outside, and our property unfolds its magic. From the lush private garden to a large trampoline, and a fairy-lit treehouse, every corner promises delight. The expansive fields, home to our friendly sheep, invite leisurely strolls or even a spontaneous picnic.

Prime Location with a Hint of History
History buffs will revel in the knowledge that our home once played host to a music festival by Hawkwind. While history adorns every nook, our location seals the deal. We're a stone's throw from a picturesque golf course and just 1.5 miles from the quintessential village of High Bickington.

Environmental Thoughtfulness
For our eco-conscious guests, we offer an electric vehicle charging station, ensuring your green rides remain juiced up for your Devon explorations.

A Pet’s Paradise
We understand that pets are family. Thus, we warmly welcome up to two dogs, ensuring they, too, enjoy a slice of Devon's beauty. All we ask is for a gentle reminder to our four-legged friends to respect our resident sheep.

In essence, our hideaway promises more than just a stay. It's an experience, a journey through time, luxury, and unparalleled beauty. Whether you're a couple seeking romance, a group chasing adventure, or a family desiring quality time, our Devon abode crafts memories that linger.
