UK Holiday Cottages

Holemoor Cottage is a fantastic North Devon retreat, a comfortable and spacious wing of the owner’s traditional 17th century farmhouse situated down a secluded country lane and with its own indoor heated swimming pool (heated all year round) and Jacuzzi. Set in 5 acres with woodland and surrounded by beautiful countryside, the whole area is alive with wildlife, so regular sightings of barn owls, rare British birds and roe deer are not unusual. You probably won’t want to move from this idyllic spot, but you’d be doing yourself a disservice with the spectacular North Cornwall coastline and its amazing beaches just a few miles away. Here you can enjoy fantastic surfing and walk coastal paths along some of the highest cliffs in the UK, whilst inland it would be a shame not to visit the beautiful Dartmoor National Park. The owners have provided a play area for young children with swings, climbing frame, slide and a playhouse and a welcoming cream tea and a basket of home produced eggs await you on arrival. All this makes the cottage an ideal all-year-round destination and on the odd rainy day, well there’s always that pool.

Living room with oak flooring, roof beams, picture window overlooking the pool, two sofas, antique occasional chair, woodburner effect electric fire, Freeview TV, DVD, radio/CD player and a selection of books and games for the children.

Bunk bedroom with two 3ft bunk beds and additional 'Z' bed. Pool room with 28ft x 12ft, 4ft deep, heated swimming pool and Jacuzzi, open 9am to 8pm (the owners greatly respect the privacy of their guests and would only use the pool whilst guests are out for the day).
