Details

Perfectly placed in the heart of the peaceful North Devonshire countryside, approximately four miles from the heritage coastline, The Tallet sits at the head of its own valley with extensive views to Exmoor. Originally a Farm Implement Store, the building has been tastefully and stylishly converted into a unique and exceptional holiday home, where guests will feel relaxed and at home whatever time of year you visit this superb rural retreat.

On entering the property you will discover a sociable open-plan kitchen, dining and sitting area. The kitchen is well-equipped with all you need to prepare some delicious home cooked meals and the large dining table has seating for all guests. There are two reception rooms each with smart televisions with access to Netflix.The main sitting area has comfortable reclining sofas and is the perfect place to relax in front of the cosy wood burning stove after a long day out exploring everything that this beautiful corner of Devon has to offer, or wander through to the sun room and open up the bi-folding doors to the patio on warm summer days. There are three bedrooms to choose from with their own smart televisions: on the first floor is the master suite including a king-size bed and en-suite shower room, and opens onto a stunning five metre terrace with glazed balustrade giving superb views down the valley towards Exmoor; also on the first floor is the “Dormitory” with a double bed and a single bed, again with its own en-suite shower room and an enormous walk-in wardrobe; and the third bedroom with a king-size bed is conveniently located on the ground floor, ideal for guests with limited mobility or teenagers wanting their own space, and has a double walk-in shower room adjacent to it.

The small-enclosed patio courtyard ensures the safety of young children and dogs and features a fire pit, garden furniture and a charcoal barbecue for al-fresco dining and toasting giant marshmallows under the stars. With 60+ acres which you are welcome to roam freely, following the countryside code of course, and an enclosed 1.3 acre field for your dog to enjoy some “off lead” time, there really is something for everyone. Surrounded by an abundance of natural wildlife from the deer at dusk or early morning, to the buzzards flying high above, this truly is an idyllic location from where you will be able to explore picture perfect villages, Exmoor National Park, some glorious beaches and the South West Coast Path, all just a stone’s throw away.
