Lovely single storey barn conversion furnished to a high standard and offering additional facilities for walkers, cyclists and dogs
One of three barns ideal for couples and friends to get together.
The Shippen is a delightful single storey barn conversion cottage furnished to a high standard in an attractive contemporary style whilst retaining some of the original character features of the stone barn. A great location for couples looking for a peaceful rural retreat whilst only a few miles from the spectacular coastline along the North coast of Devon and Cornwall. The Farmers Arms in Woolsery has recently been renovated and serves delicious home cooked food and a good choice of wine. Whilst the village of Hartland, the Elizabethan Port town of Bideford or the surfing beaches at Westward Ho! and Bude are within a scenic 30 minute drive.
The open plan living space is light and airy with a high apex ceiling and oak flooring with eco-friendly underfloor heating. There is individual courtyard seating and additional facilities which make it ideal for walkers, cyclists and those wishing to bring a pet. The owners grow their own vegetables in a small holding adjacent and have ducks, chickens, pigs, goats, cats and a dog. A large meadow ideal for leisurely picnics is just one area where the owners are carefully managing their land to encourage a variety of wildlife with owl, bat, bird boxes and small ponds for amphibians.

We had such a wonderful few days in Shippen - beautiful accommodation and such lovely welcoming touches - thank you for the delicious cake and chutney. Our dog loved his walks in the field and meeting the ducks, geese chickens and turkeys. Thank you!

Thank you for a lovely week at Shippen and a lovely welcome from the owners and Nutty. The barn is beautiful and you have thought of everything. The delicious cake and chutney was an added bonus. Loved the owl observatory. Fantastic walks and scenery and excellent for bird watching.
