A luxury rural retreat, Barnstaple, perfect for couples and families, set in glorious North Devon

Courtyard Cottage, a charming countryside cottage that has been renovated from the original farm buildings to provide comfortable accommodation for couples and small families looking for a lovely relaxing break surrounded by stunning unspoilt North Devon countryside. Set just outside Barnstaple, Courtyard Cottage is not far from all the popular local attractions, the North Devon coast and Exmoor National Park. The local area offers many opportunities to enjoy activities such as cycling, walking, and experiencing nearby Woolacombe, Croyde and Saunton.

The cottage boasts a delightful open plan living space, where you can relax on the huge sofa in front of the wood-burning stove, either relaxing with a book or perhaps enjoying a movie on the smart TV in the evenings. Rustle up dinner in the stylishly presented kitchen, well-equipped for a self catering break, and includes appliances such as an induction hob, electric oven, dishwasher, washer/dryer, fridge/freezer and a coffee machine. There is also a pine table that comfortably seats 4.

The two bedrooms are beautifully furnished. There is a master bedroom with a king-sized bed, hand wash basin and an en-suite shower room. It also benefits from direct access onto a terraced area, perfect for an evening drink when the kids are in bed. The second bedroom is a twin room, with two full size single beds. This is serviced by a family bathroom that is fitted with a large walk in shower, wash basin and WC.

Guests staying at Courtyard Cottage are welcome to enjoy the outside space to make the most of the views and surrounding scenery. There is also storage for bikes or surfboards, and a handy outside tap and hose.
Courtyard Cottage is a pet free cottage, as there is nearby livestock in the fields and there is no enclosed garden.

Please also note: although this cottage is arranged on one level, it still may not be suitable for people with mobility problems as there are a number of steps within the property, and slopes to access the cottage.

Beautiful cottage

Beautiful cottage in wonderful central location for all North Devon has to offer. The property was immaculate and had everything you could need. The owners live next door and were very friendly and helpful. Would certainly stay again.
