Willow Tree Barn

About this property

A charming wood-panelled lodge shaded by mature trees and situated in a countryside location in the sleepy hamlet of Ford on the North Devonshire coastline. This stylish country getaway is ideal for families or couples seeking a relaxing escape in nature. Fill your day with leisurely pursuits, ducking into art galleries, cafe hopping, and meandering through the bustling cobbled streets of Appledore (6 miles). Return home to soak in the evening sun as you feast al fresco in the blissfully secluded garden.

This wooden-clad abode features a warm country interior with earthy brown and rich emerald tones, exposed beams, and leafy indoor plants. After a day of coastal adventuring, park up in the gravel driveway and slip off sandy shoes by the door. Padding inside, rustle up a snack board in the wooden shaker kitchen. Celebrating something special? Pop a bottle of fizz then gather around the dining table for a memorable evening meal. The jewel of the home is the attractive lounge, complete with plushly upholstered furniture, ambient hanging lighting, and polished wooden flooring. On cooler evenings, flop down on the plump seats and snuggle in with a film on the Smart TV. When night falls, choose from two well-appointed bedrooms to rest up in. Slide into the soft sheets of the super-king or a king room, each with a sleek en-suite and storage space aplenty. Drink in dewy Devon mornings from the enclosed garden. Further afield, wildlife enthusiasts can spot the local species in the adjoining three-acre field.

Blow away the cobwebs with an invigorating surf session on the shores of Westward Ho! (6 miles) or venture to Bideford (4 miles) to barter for a bargain at the historic Panier market. Admire glistening views of the Torridge Estuary from the beachfront restaurant in Instow (7 miles).
