Fabulous Higher Clovelly Retreat

Located in a beautiful spot along the Hartland Heritage Coast and just a couple of miles from the historic fishing village of Clovelly, this delightful first-floor property makes a lovely retreat for a family looking to explore the coast and countryside of Devon and Cornwall. This imaginatively converted 19th-century former stable offers fantastic accommodation for up to four guests (plus two extra children on a sofa bed), and makes a great base for eager walkers, nature-lovers and families.

Entering this light and airy first-floor accommodation, you will find the fresh and inviting open-plan lounge/kitchen/diner with high vaulted ceilings, exposed beams and arched windows. The lounge is an ideal space for relaxation, with a stable door opening to provide glorious rural and sea views. There’s also a delightful dining area and a well-equipped kitchen, perfect for preparing your favourite meals. Exploring this pretty apartment further, there are two cosy bedrooms: a room with a king-size bed, a double sofa bed (suitable for children) and en-suite shower room, and a charming twin room. Stepping outside, you can enjoy a morning coffee or a glass of wine in the evening in the enclosed garden.

This is a great base for making the most of the North Devon and Cornwall coastline, with the beautiful beaches at Mouthmill (2 miles), Peppercombe (6.5 miles) and Buck’s Mills (4.5 miles) all within easy reach. Exploring this idyllic area further, you can visit the villages of Hartland (2.5 miles) and Morwenstow (11.5 miles) or the Victorian seaside resort of Westward Ho! (11.5 miles). Other attractions include the Milky Way Adventure Park (2 miles), The Big Sheep (10 miles) and the thriving market town of Great Torrington (17 miles), home of RHS Garden Rosemoor and Dartington Crystal. The popular seaside town of Bude is also nearby (16 miles).
