If the sun is shining (which it does a lot in Devon!) then why not head outside to the patio garden at the rear and indulge in some alfresco eating and drinking? When it’s time for bed, make your way to one of the three well-presented bedrooms, a double or two singles, again enjoying the delightful rural views.
