The Cider Barn

Everything is provided at The Cider Barn to make a self-catering stay effortless. Electricity, heating, wifi, bed linen and towels are all included, and the kitchen is fully equipped for cooking—electric oven, induction hob, dishwasher, microwave and fridge-freezer mean you can prepare anything from a quick breakfast to a full dinner. A welcome pack is waiting when you arrive, and if you're travelling with small children, a travel cot, highchair and stairgate are available on request.

The property itself is a converted 17th-century farm building near Crediton, with private access and parking for four cars. Inside: a ground-floor bedroom with kingsize bed and shower room, a comfortable living room with wood burner and Smart TV, and upstairs two more bedrooms—one kingsize, one with zip-and-link beds that split into twins on request—plus a bathroom with bath and shower. The large private garden has a wood-fired hot tub (fuel £20), lawned areas and a BBQ. One dog is welcome here at no extra cost. Smoking is not permitted indoors.

The location is rural and peaceful, a few miles out of Crediton, with Thorne's Farm Shop nearby for supplies and the Devon countryside on the doorstep. The barn sleeps six and works well for families or groups wanting their own space without neighbours sharing the building.
