2 Bedroom Cottage in Ilfracombe

Set on a 20-acre farm alongside four other properties, this cottage provides the perfect family holiday to its guests. Meet the resident rescued animals, including pigs, donkeys and alpacas. Bright and airy, the cottage has an open-plan feel that promotes a calming and comfortable atmosphere. Families can enjoy the shared outdoor space, including a children’s play area with pond dipping, or relax in your private garden on the patio and have a BBQ.

Whether you’re exploring the grounds around the cottage or enjoying a hearty lunch in the rustic kitchen/diner, you’ll feel part of the countryside here. This single-level property makes it ideal for families of all generations, with a cosy double bedroom and another bedroom with three single beds. The huge apex ceilings with exposed beams in the property make it bright and airy, but the traditional wooden furnishings in the open-plan living area make it warm and welcoming. Make sure you take advantage of the shared games barn, complete with table football, table tennis and plenty of other games to pass the time on a grey afternoon.

The cottage may be in the heart of the countryside, but it’s also a great place to stay for access to beautiful beaches. Visit Saunton Sands (10 miles), Woolacombe (6 miles) or Putsborough (9 miles) for vast sandy landscapes and waves that are perfect for surfing. Spend a day in Ilfracombe (5 miles) to visit Verity, Damien Hirst’s iconic sculpture, and catch a boat from the harbour to Lundy Island to see puffins, porpoises and maybe even dolphins.
