About this property
Braunton Farmhouse is a spacious self-catering property with five bedrooms that can comfortably accommodate up to 10 guests. This countryside retreat is an ideal home away from home for families or groups of friends looking for a relaxing getaway.
Accommodation
The cosy smaller living room, lovingly referred to as 'The Snug,' is found to the left of the main entrance. This welcoming room serves as a peaceful retreat, accommodating various members of the group depending on their preferences. It's an ideal space for adults seeking tranquillity, but it also suits teenagers and children looking for some downtime.
The Snug features a spacious sofa and a generously sized armchair. Additionally, you'll find a decorative fireplace and a large flat-screen TV with a DVD player in this room.
At the opposite end of the house, you'll discover the double-aspect formal dining room—a place for everyone to gather for meals. The substantial dining table comfortably seats up to 10, and the kitchen is well-stocked with a wide range of cutlery and crockery.
Situated at the rear of Braunton Farmhouse is the well-appointed kitchen. This charming farmhouse-style kitchen, decorated in neutral tones, boasts a large fridge, a separate freezer, a microwave, a slow cooker, an electric oven with a hob, a coffee machine, a washing machine, and a tumble dryer.

If necessary, a handy storage cupboard beside the kitchen houses items like the vacuum cleaner, an iron, an ironing board, and a clothes airer.
Access to the first floor is available via two staircases. Heading up the main staircase and to your left, you'll find Bedroom 1. This spacious twin bedroom features two full-size single beds and enjoys lovely views of the garden and local countryside. The room also includes a built-in wardrobe and a decorative fireplace.

This bright and airy twin bedroom boasts countryside views and has been decorated in soothing neutral tones, complemented by distinctive character furniture, including a chest of drawers and a bedside table.

Three generations of my family spent a wonderful two weeks at Braunton Farmhouse. The house is very well equipped and there’s plenty of room to spread about. The outside space was great for the children to run off steam. The farmhouse has fabulous views and is located close to beautiful beaches .....

We absolutely loved the farmhouse.

It was well-suited to a group size of 10 like ours’; the two reception rooms and dining room meant we could all do our own thing but the living room was a comfortable size for us all. We travelled with our 2 young children and they loved it too, especially the lawn out the front for play. The surroundings were stunning and location just right for us, with a choice of lovely beaches nearby. We loved the daily visits from cows in the nearby field, birds and even a deer. It was in a perfect location for the amazing beaches and lovely surrounding towns.

Such a wonderful house for a family holiday, our third visit & hopefully not our last. Large rooms & well equipped. Our children loved playing football on the grass at the front of the farmhouse.
