“The Granary is amazing.”

From the welcome pack (everything you needed for the next days breakfast and more!!) The quality everything... from furnishings and bedding, toiletries, crockery and cutlery and everything you can possibly need for a great stay. The Granary was also SPOTLESSLY clean, we could not fault it. We normally take stuff with us to make up for anything that hasn't been thought of. Well, we had to pack it all away again as it was not needed. ...

The Granary was also SPOTLESSLY clean, we could not fault it. We normally take stuff with us to make up for anything that hasn't been thought of. Well, we had to pack it all away again as it was not needed. The location is perfect for great walks either along the beautiful beaches or woodland walks. Alas we were unable to try the local pubs and restaurants as we hit Tier 3 during our stay but as everything was so perfect anyway we didnt feel the need to go out for meals. Charlie and Julia were great hosts and nothing was too much trouble. We were so lucky to visit before complete lockdown hit 1 day later.... By far one of the best holiday homes we have ever stayed in (and we have done a lot both UK and abroad). We will most definitely be going back (if they'll have us :--) )

“We had a fantastic time during our weeks holiday.”

A very warm welcome with freshly baked cakes and bread (and wine) was just what we needed after a long drive! Fabulous hosts who were not at all intrusive but were on hand if we needed anything. Lovely location with beautiful views across the countryside. We would highly recommend to others as a fantastic place to relax and enjoy a family holiday. Thank you!

“Really luxurious property.”

Brilliant hosts - Very friendly and helpful but not intrusive. Charlie made us a delicious lemon cake and newly baked bread which were there on arrival. Wifi is great, loads of sockets.During one spell of bad weather we listened to our music on the Sonos sound system - really impressed by the sound. Didnt want for anything. The pretty enclosed garden is completely safe for our little dog. There is table tennis and badminton but unfortunately the weather was too wet or windy this time. Cant fault anything. It has been renovated with a lot of thought and attention to detail. And also for any accessibility needs - which we havent but still enjoyed the large doors, walk in wet rooms, adjustable beds etc. This property is in a good location for visiting the south Devon coast - we enjoyed Beer, Brancombe, Sidmouth as well as walking along the river Otter and many other walks. Also enjoyed a meal at the Thristy Farmer at Whimple and other pubs further afield.. ( note this is during Covid times so you may need to book ). This is definitely a 5* property. We werent able to find any off lead dog walks from the door of the property but there are loads of walks if you get in the car and drive a short distance.

The property

As you approach via a sweeping tree-lined driveway, the striking timber clad design of The Granary becomes visible, the geometrical golden larch exterior blending seamlessly into the soft green leafy surroundings.

For exploring this region you could not be better placed with the A30 just two miles distant, making trips to the Jurassic coast to visit seaside towns such as Branscombe & Sidmouth or into the city of Exeter, to enjoy some retail therapy and a spot of lunch, an easy half hour drive.

Designed for luxury living, the uncluttered open plan interior is overflowing with fabulous mod cons including Sonos sound system, Smart TV, Nespresso machine, and a sleek bioethanol fire providing real flame at the touch of a button.

In addition, discreet functional features such as bespoke kitchen with adjustable height induction hob make this a perfect retreat for those in wheelchairs or with mobility issues.

The two super stylish bedrooms, furnished with deep pocket sprung mattresses, luxury Egyptian cotton linen and goose down duvets, overlook the garden and countryside via sliding patio doors that lead onto the timber veranda.

Each with their own en-suite; the master is fitted with a spacious wet room including his and her basins, low level lighting, fold up seat and a deep relaxing tub to luxuriate in, whilst you watch your favourite shows on the wall mounted TV.

Of course there is a telephone in both bathrooms should you need to make contact with the outside world!

For guests' supreme comfort, the master bedroom is furnished with independently, electrically adjustable mattresses.

Each bedroom has hanging space, shelves and a desk.

Outside a timber veranda, illuminated at night with sparkling LED lighting is the perfect place to enjoy evenings and sunsets whilst overlooking the garden and pond.

There is even an outdoor shower, to hose off any muddy paws or boots, or enjoy a cooling shower during hot summer months.

The garden is fully enclosed with wire-netted post and rail fencing.

The Granary welcomes dogs and children, however parents must note that the pond within the garden is open and unfenced and children must be supervised at all times.

Enjoy this beautiful retreat at any time of year and, if you have friends or family who wish to visit, the owners offer B & B accommodation next door.

There are numerous places to visit on your doorstep.

Escot Park and gardens is a day out for the whole family and just 1 mile away.

Ottery St Mary, famous for its traditional burning of Tar Barrels every year is just 3 miles and National Trust Killerton House is close by.

A stay here would not be complete without a trip to the dramatic and beautiful Jurassic coast, where coastal walks and days on the beach can be enjoyed at your leisure.

For eating out you will not be stuck for choice, your nearest pub being The Thirsty Farmer in Whimple roughly 2 miles away.
