Three Owls Lodge

Three Owls Lodge sits on a single level, which means you arrive into an open-plan living space without negotiating stairs. The layout branches naturally: one direction takes you to the kitchen and dining area, the other to three bedrooms and two bathrooms arranged along a corridor. The first bedroom is a double with its own en-suite shower; the other two are twin rooms sharing a family bathroom that has both a bath and shower. Essentials like bed linen, towels, Wi-Fi and heating are all covered, and the kitchen comes equipped for proper cooking—oven, hob, microwave, dishwasher and everything else you'd expect.

From the living area, patio doors open onto a private terrace where garden furniture invites you to sit out and take in the surrounding countryside. There's parking for two cars on site, and one well-behaved pet can stay free of charge. The lodge sits within Hartland Forest Lodges near Bideford, in a rural part of Torridge where woodland and moorland dominate the landscape. Families with young children will find a travel cot and highchair available. The property is non-smoking throughout.
