This marvellous barn conversion ticks all the boxes for a fantastic stay in Devon. With plenty of room, lots of style, and a wonderful location in Dartmoor National Park, you're guaranteed to have a great time here. The high vaulted ceilings and wooden beams remind you of the building's former use, while the clean colour palette brings it firmly into the 21st century. You'll love lighting the wood burner and getting cosy on the sofa with a glass of wine on winter evenings. Or, if the sun is shining, head outside onto the patio for an alfresco feast hot off the charcoal barbeque. And, there's even a games room where you can finish off the evening with a round of snooker. Hikers and cyclists will be in their element, with all of the sprawling Dartmoor National Park to explore. History fans can visit the nearby Castle Drogo and the iron age forts and stone circles scattered across the moorland. And, if you're missing the hustle and bustle, you can drive into Exeter, the ancient city on the River Exe, in around half an hour.

About Exeter
Exeter is centred on its pretty Cathedral Close, whose manicured lawns are surrounded by charming historic buildings. Cafes spill out onto the green under the steeple of the towering Anglican cathedral, and in December, the courtyard lights up with Christmas market stalls.
