A collection of character homes, rented together, and set on an historic Devonshire farm – this place is a dream come true. At its heart there's the manor house. An imposing place, built from local stone some 200 years ago, it's set over three floors and is the star of the show. On arrival here you can bag yourself one of the plush, en-suite bedrooms, before gathering for drinks in the formal entertaining space downstairs (there's a dining table with places for eighteen). Elsewhere, the barns have been converted, creating six one-bed cottages and suites around a shared courtyard. If you're planning a big celebration, you can also rent the enormous glass-roofed barn nearby, with its event kitchen. Around the estate you'll find all the things you'd hope for in a farm. Meet the farm animals, explore the pond and even – if the good old British weather is on your side – grab your towel for a swim in the outdoor pool.

Nice to haves

This Georgian period manor sits in the bucolic splendour of Dartmoor National Park. The foundations date back to the 15th century and the manor home you see here today was built in 1787. As with any aristocratic country retreat, you’re surrounded by sprawling gardens and grounds, where furnished patios overlook the rolling hill of the national park and even a private hot tub for an evening soak under the stars. Explore the woodlands to discover a wellness walk. There’s an outdoor kitchen with a built-in Argentinian grill and a wood-fired pizza oven for big family meals outside, and there’s a fire pit should you want to watch the sky for shooting stars long into the night. From the various viewpoints around the gardens, you can see why it is thought that Arthur Conan Doyle wrote Hound of the Baskervilles while he stayed here.

Inside, there’s a cosy lounge where you feel the history of aristocratic country escapes radiating from the marble fireplace. A collection of board games provides the analogue entertainment here, alongside a dedicated games room with ping pong and pool. The big dining room can hold banquet-sized feasts and the farmhouse-style kitchen with its massive range cooker is a delight for the chef of the group. When it comes to hitting the hay, bedrooms come with an array of four-posters, sleigh beds and comfy doubles.

If you're on the hunt for a unique holiday home with five hundred years of charm and period features, then look no further than this warm and welcoming property in the heart of the pretty town of Ashburton.

Located right on the southeastern edge of Dartmoor, there's plenty to explore right on your doorstep. The town is packed with upmarket boutiques, cool cafes and a surprisingly cosmopolitan array of restaurants. Meanwhile, families will love pony trekking and dog walking across Dartmoor, flying through the canopy and Dart River Country Park a couple of miles down the road, and visiting the jaw-dropping beaches that line the South Devon coast, including Bantham and Bigbury. 

After an action-packed day, return home to cosy up by the fire or sip sundowners in the quaint courtyard. Sit down in the formal dining room for a delicious dinner surrounded by Renaissance portraits, or enjoy a more casual affair at the kitchen table. You'll find five bedrooms that can comfortably sleep up to ten people. Each one is totally unique, with a variety of outstanding features, including vast vaulted ceilings, antique tapestries and even a glass floor in the master bedroom which overlooks the sitting room, with a rug that can be put down for privacy.

The Merchant Meeting House

Wheelchair Access

Tucked in the heart of Devon, this old dairy farm is perfect for those seeking flexible holiday living. The layout is spread across six cottages and suites, all based around the pretty courtyard. Some can be linked together for larger groups, too. We love the traditional character here – expect exposed stone walls, wooden ceiling beams, and plenty of rustic-chic charm. Set in the glorious Devon countryside, you won't need to leave this home for an authentic country experience. The grounds have a flourishing garden, full of lush greens and a turquoise lake. For a change of pace, stroll down to the local town for traditional cream tea shops, or take the short drive to awe-inspiring Oddicombe beach. After days exploring the unique landscapes, there's nothing better than coming home to the sunny courtyard, where you can enjoy a few tipples while little ones let loose.

This 16th-century townhouse is right on the historic High Street of Totnes, an easy walk from independent boutiques, cafes, bakeries and restaurants. Both moor and coastline are within a few miles, with Dartmoor National Park only a twelve-minute drive away and the golden stretches of Broadsands Beach just a twenty-minute drive. Back at home, you’ll find a thoughtfully designed home whose historic ceilings and original features are complemented by contemporary furnishings. Unwind in the elegant sitting room under the stately chandelier and enjoy afternoon tea. The kitchen is well-equipped for home-cooked meals, and we especially love the oval dining table with a view of the street for entertaining. At the end of the day, you’ll find the bedrooms share the same elegant atmosphere and eye to comfort. Settle in for a night of dreamy, restorative sleep.

This cosy white cottage is set in the beautiful village of Lustleigh, named one of the prettiest UK villages by The Telegraph in 2019. Wander through the intimate interior and onto the quaint streets and it's a postcard picture image at every turn.

The restful haven has a warm energy that makes it a dreamy spot all year round. In the spring and summer, the sun shines on the cottaged houses and Lustleigh radiates in a jubilant mood. Come the colder months, the snug living room, with a log burner, is a quiet spot to curl up with a book or film. 

If the weather allows, you're expertly placed to explore the natural beauty of Dartmoor National Park. Bring snacks and plenty of water before you embark on a journey across the scenic walking trails. It's an idyllic location for picnics underneath the summer sun.

If the weather isn't on your side, settle into the comfort of your home. The deluxe bathtub is tailor-made for those wet, winter nights when you want to escape to your tranquil refuge.

If the gentle trickle of water helps you relax and you're a lover of the great outdoors, this fabulous home is sure to delight you. Right next to a narrow part of the River Harbourne, which leads to the Dart, it's a converted fruit barn with bags of character and more than its fair share of chic styling. 

Built around 1825 and once a rubble ruin, the home has been completely modernised, with plenty of contemporary luxuries blending with the building's original structures. We love the extended kitchen and dining space, where beams and exposed stone walls give way to gunmetal grey patio doors and a glass ceiling.

Designed to be cosy for four but with the option of adding two children in the spacious master suite, it's a beautiful home with several standout features. As well as the modern log burner in the sitting room, there's the private garden beside the river, the high-spec kitchen, glamorous bathrooms and comfy beds. Plus a friendly local host who'll be on hand with tips and recommendations about the area.

On the outskirts of a village near Totnes, you'll be ideally positioned to access all of the South Hams easily by car. And keen walkers can head off to Totnes, Tuckenhay, Cornworthy and more. There are two good pubs within walking distance and the nearby Sharpham Estate has a great farm shop.

This is a barn conversion in which the standard of the renovation has been of such quality that it's nigh-on impossible to picture its functional past. Set in twenty-six acres of Devon countryside, the building has been given some hi-tech features, including a ground-source heating system and an intelligent lighting system, as well as a lot of large glass windows that make the space a lot brighter than could be expected of an old barn. Our favourite space has to be the mezzanine lounge, reached via a glass spiral staircase and with a skylight on one side that's perfect for stargazing. The large kitchen looks the picture of modernity, but there's an Aga in place for a touch of rusticness. Stepping outside, there's a large patio area complete with an alfresco dining table, barbecue and fire pit, so you can sit out here on summer evenings and bask in the spectacular view of Longcombe Valley. The medieval town of Totnes can be reached in seven minutes in the car and offers plenty of quaint shops and restaurants to explore. Paignton Beach is a seventeen-minute drive away, too.

Watercress Soup

More a way of life than a holiday home, this unique stay offers a wealth of outdoor activities and add-on experiences. Aimed at families who like to get out into the fresh air, it's a fabulous country house in an idyllic rural setting. Right on the River Avon, it's the perfect spot for wild swimming with a rope swing and river plunge pool in the garden. Set in its own pretty grounds, the rustic farmhouse can trace its roots back to the 12th century and has plenty of character. Stone floors, oak beams and fireplaces are topped off with comfy furnishings and a lived-in, home from home feel. We love the living room with its exposed stone wall and cosy sofas around the fire. Bedrooms are all of a good size and even the bathrooms are stylish. Ideal for a large family group, you can cook meals in the country kitchen and serve them at the huge dining table, or barbecue outside on the Argentinian grill on warmer evenings. If the lure of the water has called you here, you can spend days playing in the river, or hop into the twelve-man hot tub. Head off for walks nearby or just let the kids bounce on the trampoline while you sit back with a cold beer on the sun loungers. Other add-ons include sea fishing with the host and taking time out in the log-fired sauna in the grounds. And it's just a short drive to Kingsbridge and the coast if you fancy a change of scene.

Surrounded by 64 acres of vineyards, orchards and farmland, this luxurious barn conversion puts you between the coastal beauty of the South Devon AONB and Dartmoor National Park. A fifteen-minute drive sees you at the Southwest Coast Path to discover secluded bays and white cliffs, or make the twenty-minute drive to Bantham Beach for a day on the soft sand of the classic British seaside. 

Though if you want to stay closer to home, you’ll find plenty of activities right on the estate. Gin and wine tastings are on offer and walking the grounds you’ll come face to face with white-faced Dartmoor sheep and red Devon cattle. Should the weather turn, you’ve got a private indoor swimming pool and a dedicated cinema room with plush red theatre chairs and a big screen to keep you entertained. But sunny days can be spent on the patios, dining, reclining and unwinding in front of the rolling Devonshire scenery. 

Inside, wood-burning stoves and log fires keep things feeling cosy in the open dining and living room. The gabled beams of the barn are still on show, but the sleek kitchen and furnishings are all modern. It feels like a place for family or friends to gather after long walks in the countryside, and appreciate the peace and quiet.

What's better than a cedar hot tub with a sweeping view of the Totnes countryside and the River Dart? In the case of this colossal former barn, the answer is two of them. This isn't the only thing that the home doubles up on, as there are also two Webber coal barbecues on the patio for grilling up smoky flavours, which lucky guests will be able to enjoy underneath the parasols on the alfresco dining area. This is very much an address where outdoor pursuits are the number one priority. On the grounds, there's a hard tennis court, trampoline and children's play area, but beyond the perimeters, there's plenty to see, too. The town of Totnes takes forty minutes to reach on foot, and there are a number of beaches — including those at Broadsands and Paighton — that can be reached in less than half an hour in the car. However, don't worry if you fancy staying indoors for the day — or if the weather leaves you with no choice — as there's plenty to keep you occupied inside the four walls. A games room on the top floor has tables for both foosball and ping pong, as well as another stunning view out of the floor-to-ceiling window. Alternatively, what's to stop you curling up on one of the sofas in the living room with a book in hand and the log-burner crackling away comfortingly in the background?

One glance at this thatched arts and crafts style cottage and you'll feel like you've stumbled into a fairytale. But instead of a faraway kingdom, you'll find this cosy homestead nestled in a quiet corner at the edge of Dartmoor National Park. It's the perfect place to escape to the country – one glance at those striking views over the Teign Valley from the private garden and you'll never want to return to the bustle of city life (we sure didn't). Inside, the magic continues, with an inviting sitting room perfect for family time and a country-style kitchen that has everything you'll need to rustle up a meal. We loved the welcome hamper – host Charles leaves bread, jam, local milk and even fresh flowers to make you feel right at home – and the delightful touches like board games and DVDs provide plenty of entertainment. Enjoy a family game night in front of the fire, curl up with a book in the cushy armchair or spend a chilled evening snuggled up with your favourite films. During the day, don your walking shoes and hit the nearby trails, then, following an afternoon of rambling, reward yourself with a well-earned pint at one of the local pubs. Or, if you'd prefer a bit more liveliness, Exeter is only a twenty-minute drive away.

The stunning kitchen is cool and fresh, and perfect for big breakfasts, while the freestanding tub beckons for some precious alone-time. Set on picturesque grounds, complete with a babbling brook and watermill, this serene setting is sure to give you the peace and quiet you crave. Although the home sits well off of the beaten track, you can easily reach the charming village of Chagford for all of your culinary needs and shopping necessities.

This fantastic Victorian villa in the English Riviera is the perfect home for family holidays. Located in Paignton, this home is only a short walk from many great activities including Paignton Beach – a nineteen-minute walk away – where you will find the pier, the Geopark, a fairy cove, pirates bay adventure golf, and even a multiplex cinema perfect for those typical rainy British days. What’s more, Splashdown water park is a short nine-minute walk away and Torbay Leisure Centre – with its pool, gym and squash courts – is reachable in twelve minutes on foot.

Your little ones will love letting off steam in the home’s large, enclosed garden too, with the kid's swing, trampoline, treehouse, football goal and pirate boat. Meanwhile, you can relax on the garden bench with a good book or enjoy an afternoon Devonshire cream tea alfresco at the outdoor dining area. 

When it’s time to come indoors, head from the decked veranda through the French doors into the living space. Curl up on the sofa to watch a family film and even make it cosier with the wood-burning stove, which can be lit for additional warmth or roasting marshmallows. Your little ones hopefully won’t object to bedtime with the twin rooms one of which is Star Wars-themed and the other which features a dollhouse mounted on the wall and a whimsical fairy wall hanging to decorate. We can’t promise they’ll want to stop playing and go to sleep though.

Coast meets country in this Dittisham home. Throw open the generous patio doors to indulge in indoor-outdoor living at its finest – and believe us when we say, this is a garden you’ll never tire of. Perfect for families, little ones will love to explore this haven for wildlife – just bear in mind that there’s an unfenced pond and stream here, so children and dogs will need to be supervised when enjoying the outdoor space. Is the coast calling your name? It’s a mere twenty-minute drive to Blackpool Sands. 

Nature's Oasis

This seventeeth–century property overlooks the sparkling blue waters of the seaside town, Brixham. Situated next to the charming harbour, you're only a short stroll away from the waterside. Head up the three-tiered garden to admire the view from atop. You'll be greeted with clear skies, the hum of the waters, and the sounds of the harbour. 

The large windows throughout the home light up the space as you play on the vintage arcade table that offers the classical Space Invaders and Pacman. Whoever gets to sleep in the Captain's Cabin bedroom gets a gorgeous view of the surrounding harbour right from the comfort of their own bed – imagine waking up next to that blissful sight every morning.

The beautiful yet convenient location makes this the perfect place to reside on a family getaway to a seaside town. There's a fantastic selection of eateries by the harbour front as well as a cosy pub that serves delicious local produce. Wander the streets of Brixham to discover a ton of local hidden gems and treat yourself to sugary sweet treats and savory snacks.

Captain Curious

This waterfront apartment has bagged itself a prime position on the banks of the River Dart, with views across the water and out to sea. And with two balconies – one off the living area and one off the main bedroom – there’s plenty of space for everyone to enjoy them. While the open-plan kitchen is on the small side, it is well-equipped. And if you fancy dining out, just hop on a ferry for the short and scenic trip to Dartmouth, where you’ll find a choice of restaurants and pubs.

Waterside Wonder

This restored barn makes the perfect setting for a refreshing rural escape. Surrounded by the beautiful Devon countryside, you’ll find easy access to walking trails as well as the picturesque village of Dittisham – just a mile away. And while days can be spent exploring, by night you’ll love returning home to relax by the wood-burning fire. Pets are welcome to join you during your stay, plus there is a large private garden with outdoor seating – perfect for summer evening drinks. 

Trinity Barn

Access to Gym / Spa

Dramatic views and stylish interiors are the names of the game at this home overlooking the coastline between Paignton and Brixham. A big, bright family home with a rear garden that drops away, it offers up staggering vistas, with big windows and a huge terrace built to make the most of it. Period touches like parquet floors, fireplaces and bay windows nod back to the 1930s, while luxurious, modern furnishings bring everything right up to date.

Perfect for families, there's a great deal of space to spread out in, with an open layout to the fully equipped kitchen and dining space – with one of the best views in the house. Elsewhere, a cosy living room boasts velvet sofas, a log burner and sliding doors to the terrace, while a second sitting room doubles as an extra bedroom, with a wheelchair-accessible ground-floor bedroom off it.

Upstairs, the main bedroom is a lesson in elegant styling, and we love not only its far-reaching views across the hills but also its stunning en-suite – the freestanding tub is such a treat. And we'd have been quite content if it stopped there, but this home also comes with a slight surprise – underneath the rear terrace, you'll find a bonus room used as a gym, with a treadmill, bike machine and weights.

Enjoy all your meals on the sunny terrace during the summer months, gaze out across the sea and even watch the steam trains go about their business at the local heritage railway. It's just a walk or a short drive to Broadsands Beach, and you can choose between heading out for a day at Paignton Zoo, visiting Brixham Harbour or even grabbing your clubs for a game of golf nearby – it's all within easy striking distance.



In Perspective

Situated in the village of Bishopsteignton, this home welcomes all the family – including four-legged members. In the garden, there’s a sheltered area for dining and a hot tub for relaxing after a day at the seaside. Head inside, and you’ll find table football to keep everyone occupied on grey days. Just so you know, at capacity, the snug doubles as a bedroom and two guests will sleep on a sofa bed. Ready to hit the beach? Teignmouth is a ten-minute drive away. 

South Coast Sun

Single-Level Home

This magical hideaway in the Teign Valley is the stuff dreams are made of. It's a cosy spot where you can get toasty in front of the woodburner on chilly evenings – your hosts will provide the logs. The outdoor space is also fabulous, with your very own hot tub where you can soak under the stars, a pretty patio for long alfresco lunches and wooded grounds to ramble through. You also have access to some brilliant shared amenities – how about a swim in the indoor pool, followed by a session in the sauna for a truly relaxing experience? If you're craving a little more adrenaline, then Dartmoor National Park is on your doorstep, where you can hike, cycle or pony trek through the dramatic landscapes. But if your favourite kind of adventure is the culinary kind, then there are plenty of traditional pubs and restaurants to try in this wonderful corner of Devon. 

Woodland Wonders

Fancy a romantic getaway with a twist? This upside-down home places a firelit living area above the bedroom, where the en-suite bathtub enjoys a framed view of the creek. Upstairs, we think the waterside terrace might inspire a paddle to Salcombe – made easy by the three-seater kayak your host provides. It's worth noting that there is a bit of a hike to the front door here (thirty-six steps, to be precise), so this home won't be the best option for everyone. 

The Great Outward

Upon the English Riviera, staying in the warm climate of the sophisticated town of Torquay feels like the equivalent of Cannes. Hop off a yacht at Torquay Marina and take an eighteen-minute stroll to this fabulous apartment, fit for any VIP. Upon arrival, your host will have a bottle of wine waiting for you. Before you even start exploring this modern flat, pour yourself a glass and say cheers to the start of the holiday. Do you like a home with a view? Because this one offers several. From its many large windows, you can spot the bay, beaches, harbours, the marina, and of course the big blue sea itself. On a sunny day, we recommend taking a bowl of olives and a chilled prosecco out to the private balcony – pop up the parasol if it gets too hot. Indoors, pristine white and cream interiors make the space feel fresh, with a mint-green sofa which you can sink into after a long day of beachside activities. South Devon might feel distinctly Mediterranean, but you’ll certainly enjoy ending the day with a refreshing cup of Earl Grey.

Pollock Palms

Rooftop Terrace

Overlooking an arm of the Salcombe-Kingsbridge Estuary, this home not only has a stunning waterfront view in its arsenal, but the rolling countryside packs a pretty impressive punch, too. For that very valid reason, we recommend spending as much time as possible out on the decked terrace – whether that’s in the hot tub or simply enjoying a cup of coffee in one of the outdoor chairs is completely up to you, as long as you’re keeping an eye on the horizon. 

Popular with paddle boarders, you might even spot a few going by when you’re taking in the water views. If you’re eager to try it out for yourself, there’s a rental place a five-minute walk away and they’ll see that you’re joining the fray in no time. Prefer to admire the water from afar? Also completely fine, and you might find yourself frequenting the famous Crabshell Inn. With its waterfront position, you’re able to appreciate the surroundings while you sip a pint, and it’s only a five-minute stroll away from home. 

Explore the market town of Kingsbridge, drive to Salcombe and visit as much of South Devon as you can manage in between all of the relaxation you’ll be doing in this home. Kindle a fire in the wood-burning stove and sit back with a glass of wine as you watch the world go by through the floor to ceiling windows. 

Paddler's Watch

Find yourself immersed in the wild, untouched beauty of Dartmoor National Park with a stay at this lavish home. Perched up high on a hillside and overlooking a velvety valley, it flaunts four acres of private grounds with breathtaking views to boot.

Every detail beckons you to unwind in the splendour of your surroundings. From the elegant sleeping quarters, with their sumptuous linens and lie-in worthy views, to the tranquil garden, where an annexe offers a peaceful spot for morning yoga flows. With a sitting room, drawing room and fully-equipped kitchen diner, the open-plan living areas are primed for entertaining and offer plenty of scope for families to socialise and enjoy private moments of calm. We especially love the kitchen-diner, with its hand-crafted oak dining table, a piano for impromptu singalongs and bi-folding French doors that open up to the terrace. Overlooking lush foliage, this is the perfect place to enjoy a cream tea in the sunshine.

If you can bear to leave this lavish abode, you're in a prime location for an adventure. Hike through miles of undulating moorlands and granite-topped tors or stroll through picturesque villages and explore the local culture. You're a twenty-five-minute drive from the historic market town of Newton Abbot and just a twelve-minute stroll from the pretty village of Lustleigh. After busy days, fire up the pizza oven and barbecue for an alfresco feast at sunset before snuggling up on the velvet sofas beside the warm glow of the wood-burning stove.

The Mapstone

Bike Shed

Sitting in the middle of a thirty-acre farm in the Tamar Valley Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this barn conversion is a fittingly impressive home for such an idyllic location. 

There are plenty of spots from which you can gaze out at the pretty meadows, woodland and the banks of the River Tamar that surround the address, whether that's out through the floor-to-ceiling windows that line the main living space or while seated on the roof terrace bordered by a leafy pergola. However, the home's interior is well worth your attention, too. Certain features have been retained from the building's industrious past, including wooden ceiling beams and exposed stonework, but otherwise, the design is bright and contemporary.

The number of amenities available to guests distinguishes this home from the pack. Not only is there a homely wood-burning stove in the main space, but there's a games room with a ping-pong table and darts board in a section that was once a cattle shed, plus lots of equipment for outdoor games beside the forecourt and lawned area. Here you will find tables, benches and additional seating for your exclusive use and space to stoke up barbecues and challenge the group to a variety of games.

Elsewhere on the site, there are the ruins of a silver and lead mine accompanied by the pumping engine house and smithy, part of the industrial landscape recognised as a UNESCO World Heritage Site. There are other footpaths that lead off into the countryside, but you can also stroll down to the banks of the River Tamar, on which there's a two-hour window every day when it's safe to use it for water sports.
