Our 2015 brochure is out!
Our new 2015 brochure features nearly 600 places to stay all across the West Country. Ranging from romantic retreats for two up to big country houses sleeping a maximum of 47 guests, most have stunning views out to sea or across lush countryside.
65 have use of a heated swimming pool, some have private moorings or fishing rights and others are on working farms. Many are within ambling distance of the beach or local pub, and over half welcome pets.
Here are some of the best:
Near the old coaching town of Chudleigh and around eight miles from the coast at Dawlish is The Barn, a smart and spacious conversion sleeping six with an upside-down layout to make the most of the superb country views. This is a peaceful, rural location within easy reach of Exeter, the coast and Dartmoor.
A half mile from Scorriton, in the tiny hamlet of Combe where the river Mardle meanders through and on to the river Dart, is Cullaford Cottage - stunning, detached and thatched - once home to the author Mary Wesley and still a haven from the rush of the modern world. This is a magical and sophisticated cottage in a tranquil, beautiful setting.
Amongst the many new places to stay in Cornwall is Hedgerows, an imposing custom-built detached house for 12 with stunning sea views and interiors on the south coast at Maenporth, near Mawnan Smith and Falmouth. Set opposite the spectacular sandy, cove beach, this magnificent house is surrounded by an acre of enclosed garden.
On the northern slopes of the Mendip Hills at the edge of Chilcompton village, with lovely long rural views, is single-storey Magnolia Cottage. Sleeping four, this charming cottage was formerly stables to the old parsonage; now light, stylish and smartly refurbished it’s a peaceful base from which to explore Wells, Bath and Glastonbury.
