Located in the quaint village of Bishop’s Tawton on the outskirts of Barnstaple, this unique property offers a tranquil escape within easy reach of North Devon coast and countryside. Originally built in the 1800s, it’s been lovingly renovated with exquisite attention to detail to offer the highest standards of style and comfort. With stunning open-plan living spaces, flexible sleeping arrangements, a rear terrace with far-reaching country views, and a hot tub, this dog-friendly property is ideal families and groups of friends.
The open-plan living space has an instant wow factor. With high ceilings, large windows and skylights, a mezzanine level and a relaxed contemporary style, it’s the perfect space for socialising, entertaining, and chilling out. The contemporary, country-style kitchen has everything you need to prepare delicious meals, before gathering around the elegant dining table to wine, dine and relive the best moments of your holiday. Alternatively make the most of warm weather and fire up the BBQ before dining on the rear terrace and drinking in those views. Spend relaxing evenings curled up with a book in the reading nook on the mezzanine level, stargazing on the terrace, or watching a film in the lounge. Then unwind in the hot tub before getting cosy under the covers in the two comfortable bedrooms. The king-size bedroom has access to the terrace and an en-suite shower room; the second bedroom has a super-king-size zip-and-link bed that can be made up as a twin. A family bathroom completes the accommodation.
Take advantage of the numerous walking and cycling trails from the village, or walk sections of the Tarka Trail, a 180-mile, figure-of-eight loop that traverses North Devon. The trail passes through the picturesque village of Instow (10.5 miles) at the confluence of the rivers Taw and Torridge with a gorgeous waterfront and sandy beaches. To ride the waves, head to the surfing favourite of Westwood Ho! (11 miles).

Really lovely, well presented, comfortable and charming accommodation with a huge number of lighting options to suit each mood. Gorgeous windows, relaxing character and very clean. Suited us perfectly.

We had a wonderful holiday at The Reading Rooms with our two children, it is a beautiful place. Well equipped, comfortable beds and the hot tub is a big bonus! It was a wet week when we stayed but still lots to do in the area and a great location for visiting beaches and the brilliant Exmoor Zoo. We hope to be back!
