About this property

This newly converted former farm building is within view of Dartmoor National Park's most famed beauty spot and well loved ancient tor, Haytor Rock, and now provides three fantastic holiday properties.  They have been sympathetically converted and beautifully styled and furnished with a blend of warming moorland colours and cosy soft-furnishings which are complemented with modern luxury amenities.

Nestled between two barns lies The Hayloft, a chic reverse level property which offers a touch of luxury as well as an abundance of class. The open plan living area not only boasts a lofty vaulted ceiling but also a floor to ceiling window providing stunning far reaching views across rolling South Devon countryside all the way down to the sea. The centrally located dining table makes best use of this view and ensures that every meal is a wondrous occasion. After a long day of exploring, make use of the elegant roll top bath and the beautiful upholstered feature winged bed to revitalise any aching limbs.

Rural, yet not isolated, the peaceful location will dazzle the senses for those seeking outdoor pursuits as well as those wanting a restful holiday at any time of year.  Each of the properties boasts stunning views across open wild sweeping moorland as well as across rolling Devon countryside towards the sparkle of the South Devon coastline.  Dartmoor ponies are likely to nuzzle at the property's gate.  Whether on foot or on bike, there are endless routes straight from the front doors, and the many mysterious Dartmoor tales will captivate the imaginations of all ages.  The historic quarries at Haytor are just a short walk away, from where you can follow the Haytor Granite Tramway, tracing the route to the coast used when granite was exported during the late 18th Century.  For cyclists, Haytor is a regular Tour of Britain stage. For more restful pursuits there is a fabulous cafe bar offering delicious local goodies, a wonderful Dartmoor Inn and restaurant, and a National Park Visitor Centre that will equip guests with plentiful local information within a short stroll of the barns.  Just slightly further afield, within a mile or so, there is a well stocked farm shop as well as a selection of picturesque village inns and tearooms; and just beyond that a wider selection of amenities are found within Bovey Tracey. Beyond Dartmoor, the shops, theatres, and cinemas of Exeter are not far away. Day trips to beaches in Teignmouth or South Hams offer a great alternative for a fun day-out.
