Beech House - Thorne Park Farm

About this property

A traditional farmhouse with a sprawling lawned garden and a private games barn, perfectly situated for adventures along the North Devon coast. Brimming with classic country charm, this spacious retreat is a wonderful base for a multigenerational family holiday or escape with old friends. Wriggle into wetsuits and embark on a group SUP session along Bude canal (10 miles), before sinking into your private open-air jacuzzi for a restorative soak.

This elegant hideaway features an inviting interior with plush fabrics, rustic wooden beams, and original inglenook fireplaces. Unravel outer layers at the door then pad into the cosy lounge. Stretch out on the squishy sofas with a post-adventure brew and bask in the warmth of the electric wood burner-effect fire. Set the mood with a crowd-pleaser playlist on the Smart TV. Mark your special occasion with a formal feasting affair in the dining space. After supper, those with a competitive streak can transform the dining table into a pool table while the leisure seekers flop down on the sofas. Keen cooks will delight in pottering in the chic country kitchen styled in creamy neutral tones. Experiment with fresh local ingredients or perch at the breakfast bar to blether over a bottle of wine. Retire upstairs to the comfort of four thoughtfully styled en-suite bedrooms in a range of configurations to suit the whole group. Outside, little ones can while away afternoons on the activity-filled lawn or retreat inside to the private games barn.

Scoff samples and browse for unique souvenirs at the weekly market in Holsworthy (2 miles) or tee off in the tranquil grounds of Holsworthy Golf Club (2.5 miles). Stroll the stretch of golden sand at Summerleaze Beach (11 miles) or enjoy cuddles with the furry residents of The Big Sheep (19 miles).
