Magpie is one of 12 delightful holiday cottages at the popular Saunton Sands Farm Cottages complex.

The indoor activity complex includes heated indoor swimming pool**, large hot tub**, indoor play barn with table tennis, pool, table football and Wii games. There is also a dedicated play area with toys for smaller children.

The 12 acre estate which guests are welcome to roam includes an adventure play area with climbing fort, swings, play house and picnic tables. Also within the grounds are animals including sheep and chickens and a large carp lake for keen anglers to enjoy. It also provides a haven for wildlife including swans, wild ducks, kingfishers, barn owls and a great variety of other birds. This hidden gem lies shielded by a copse of trees with a simply stunning lake, beautiful and tranquil and on a sunny day provides a magical place to sit and relax.
