Farm cottage in Devon

Crowbeare Farm, located at the end of a private lane and adjacent to the owner’s home, offers a tranquil retreat surrounded by fields and streams. These semi-detached holiday properties enjoy a peaceful setting while being conveniently close to the historic town of Great Torrington. Converted from the old milking parlour, this property retains much of their original charm, with the exterior stone and brickwork preserved.

Taw, the smaller of the two properties, features a galleried bedroom overlooking the fields. Its open-plan design is light and airy, complemented by a south-facing patio perfect for enjoying the views. Torridge, the larger property, has two bedrooms: a double with an additional single bed upstairs and twin zip-and-link beds on the ground floor. Designed with accessibility in mind, the ground floor has level access from the parking area through to the kitchen, first bedroom, and living room. The downstairs bedroom includes an en-suite shower room and opens onto a south-facing patio. Additionally, the living room features a ramp from the patio doors to the outdoor space.

Crowbeare Farm is also home to a small herd of pedigree South Devon cows. Known for their quiet and friendly nature, these docile animals each have unique personalities and can be seen with their calves during the early to late summer months—an experience that is both fascinating and delightful to observe.

On the ground floor, the living room features a Freeview TV, DVD player, and patio doors leading to a small enclosed courtyard with a patio and garden furniture. The kitchen/dining room is well-equipped with an electric cooker, fridge/freezer, dishwasher, and washing machine. Also on this level is a bedroom with a zip-and-link kingsize bed (can be configured as twin beds) and an en-suite wet room with a shower, toilet, grab rail, and shower seat, offering wheelchair access. Upstairs, the second bedroom has a double bed and an en-suite bathroom with a shower over the bath and a toilet. The property includes oil central heating, electricity, bed linen, and towels, with a travel cot available on request. Private parking is provided for two cars. Please note: this is a no-smoking property, and there is a stream close by.

The cottages are conveniently located near the historic Civil War town of Great Torrington, which offers a variety of shops and amenities, as well as attractions like the 1644 visitor centre and the Dartington Crystal factory. Just outside the town, RHS Rosemoor is a must-visit destination for gardening enthusiasts. This location is perfect for exploring the many attractions that North Devon has to offer, including the breathtaking beaches at Woolacombe and Sandymouth.

For a memorable day out, visit Hartland to see the lighthouse, Hartland Quay, and the charming historic fishing village of Clovelly. The surrounding area is also rich in National Trust properties to explore. Nearby Bideford provides additional amenities, and from its quay, you can book a trip to Lundy Island. Slightly farther afield, the Dartmoor and Exmoor National Parks offer stunning landscapes and outdoor adventures.

Beach lovers will appreciate the wide sandy shores, with the nearest beach located at Westward Ho! For family fun, The Milky Way and The Big Sheep are sure to keep children entertained. The nearest beach is 10 miles away, with a shop, pub, and restaurant located just 1 mile from the cottages.
