About this property

Okehampton 2 miles. This superb detached newly renovated barn, is situated in the hamlet of Brightley close to both the market town of Okehampton and the wonderful Dartmoor National Park. This delightful upside down barn is ideal for a couple or small family with plenty of places to visit as well as a number of walking routes that can be enjoyed in the area. After parking your car you enter this property into a slate floored hallway and immediately feel the warmth from the underfloor heating. The underfloor heating is in each room downstairs so you and your loved ones can easily keep warm on cooler evenings. On the ground floor of this charming barn are the bedrooms; a master king-size double with exposed beam and a single, along with a bathroom with a luxury roll-top bath and double separate shower. Up on the first floor is the open plan living area with a vaulted ceiling and exposed beams, as well as a lovely woodburning stove and modern furnishings. Each room in this lovely property exudes quality and style. Outside there is a paved area with seat, a perfect place for that early morning cup of tea. Just a step away is an attractive small garden with a traditional flower border and views of the stream and paddock running up into the woods where guests are welcome to walk. There is also a BBQ for summer evenings and seating. Brightley is a pretty hamlet near the river Okement and adjacent to Abbeyford woods with ample opportunities for country pursuits. The market town of Okehampton has a medieval castle, a museum and a train station, as well as a selection of shops and pubs. Walks and cycling are a must within the Dartmoor National Park, where you may wish to venture to the Yes Tor which rises to above 2000 feet. With the north and south coasts of Devon to explore and charming villages and towns to visit makes Brightley Mill Barn an excellent place to stay.

Okehampton is a busy market town on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park and near the highest and most dramatic areas of the moor, where Yes Tor rises to a height above 2000 feet. Okehampton has a prominent medieval castle overlooking a wooded river valley, the Museum of Dartmoor Life (where Tourist Information can be found) and Okehampton train station, which has been restored to its 1950s glory running trains along a scenic route to Meldon the highest station in southern England.

  • Margaret

    The cottage was spotless and very comfortable and well equipped. A lovely setting.

  • Gillian

    It is a real home from home .

  • Robert

    From the design detail to the little extra's of milk, biscuits and fresh flowers, made this a true 'home from home'. The friendly host Mandy has thought of everything. No faults whatsoever and we'll certainly be back.
