St Clements Lodge is a characterful Grade II listed barn conversion set in a wonderfully peaceful rural position at Upcott Barton Farm, near Beaford in North Devon. Surrounded by open countryside and located between Dartmoor and Exmoor, this spacious single-storey retreat is ideal for families, groups of friends and guests looking to enjoy walking, cycling and the slower pace of country life.

The lodge retains plenty of original character, with exposed stonework and beams throughout, while offering a practical and sociable layout for modern holidays. At the heart of the property is the open-plan kitchen, dining and living area. The sitting space provides plenty of room for everyone to relax together, with comfortable seating, television and French doors opening directly onto the courtyard. Rural views and the quiet farm setting create a relaxed atmosphere throughout. The dining area comfortably seats up to eight guests and sits alongside the kitchen, making the space ideal for sociable breakfasts, family meals and relaxed evenings together.

The kitchen is well equipped for self-catering stays, with an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge/freezer and dishwasher. All three bedrooms are located on the ground floor. Bedroom one has a king-size bed, television, built-in wardrobes and dressing table, with space for a travel cot. Bedroom two is a twin room with two single beds, while bedroom three has a super-king-size zip and link bed which can be configured as twin beds on request. For larger groups, the lounge also has a sofa bed which can accommodate two additional guests, bringing the total occupancy to eight.

Outside, guests have access to two enclosed garden areas, including lawn, shaded spaces and rural views. Garden furniture provides space for outdoor dining and relaxing, while a charcoal barbecue is available for warmer days. The enclosed layout makes the outside space particularly useful for families and guests travelling with dogs. For guests travelling with horses, paddock access and livery may be available by prior arrangement, making St Clements Lodge an unusual and flexible countryside escape.

Beaford is around a mile away, while the nearby village of Roborough is approximately ten minutes by car. RHS Garden Rosemoor, Dartmoor, Exmoor and the wider North Devon countryside are all within easy reach.
