Stanley House

Providing bright, newly finished and chic accommodation for up to eight guests, this spacious hideaway sits in a tranquil spot in a picturesque Devon village within easy reach of the coast. To the south of the River Taw, the pretty village of Instow (5 miles) offers a lovely sandy beach, while the sweeping shores of Saunton Sands (8 miles), Croyde Bay (9 miles) and Woolacombe (10 miles) lie to the north.

Keen walkers and cyclists can follow the Tarka Trail, and the breath taking landscapes of Exmoor National Park are just 15 miles away. Other nearby attractions include Arlington Court, The BIG Sheep, Combe Martin Wildlife and Dinosaur Park, and the Victorian seaside resort of Westward Ho!, all within 15 miles.

The historic market town of Barnstaple (2 miles) also offers a thriving pannier market, independent shops and a great choice of pubs, cafés and restaurants. The entrance to this wonderful property leads to the landing of the upper floor which takes you through to the bright and elegantly arranged lounge.

With ample sumptuous seating and a Smart TV, this stylishly decorated space offers incredible views from the large windows occupying the far wall. Exploring the first floor of this fabulous getaway further, you will find a gorgeous open-plan kitchen/diner with a high vaulted ceiling and natural light streaming in from the bifold doors.

The spacious main dining area features a sociable dining table, and there's a useful breakfast bar over by the sleek, thoughtfully organised and fully equipped kitchen. The bifold doors lead out onto a balcony with plenty of outdoor seating, providing breathtaking views and an ideal spot for al fresco dining.

Back inside, a utility area is just off from the kitchen, alongside access to the garage which houses a games room with a ping-pong table and dartboard. The first floor also features a WC.
