Escape the hustle and bustle of everyday life in this gorgeous retreat for two in the Haldon Valley, just 6 miles from Exeter. The stylish, open-plan barn conversion is perfect for spending quality time with a loved one, sharing romantic dinners together and enjoying cosy movie nights on the sofa. The surrounding Devon countryside is a paradise for outdoor enthusiasts, with endless walks to explore nearby. Head to Haldon Forest Park, 2.5 miles away, to enjoy a woodland ramble or get the heart pumping on one of the many mountain bike trails. Alternatively, spend the day at the coast, pottering around the seaside towns of Exmouth (12 miles) or Sidmouth (19 miles), both of which boast fabulous beaches, quaint cafes, boutiques, and gift shops. You’ll find further shops and eateries in the historic city of Exeter, as well as a magnificent Gothic cathedral, vibrant quayside, and fascinating underground passages. Nearby days out include Powderham Castle, Crealy Theme Park, and Dartmoor National Park (all within 10 miles).
The converted barn is decorated in a contemporary style, with a colour scheme that reflects the surrounding landscape and a beautiful collection of stylish artwork and accessories. Enter the property into the bright and inviting lounge/kitchen/diner, which boasts a vaulted ceiling and exposed trusses. Along one wall is a sleek kitchen area for whipping up tasty dishes for two, which you can share at the wooden dining table or outside in the courtyard for an al fresco meal. After dinner, snuggle up on the sofa in the cosy lounge area to watch a film on the Smart TV. When it’s time for bed, retire to the inviting king-size bedroom which is decorated in a calming colour palette and has its own, en-suite shower room.
Outside, soak up the sounds of the countryside from your cute, enclosed private courtyard. This decked area has a bistro set, making it the perfect spot to sip a morning coffee or share an al fresco supper on a summer’s evening and wait for the stars to light up in this pretty valley.
