Staycation in style at the Cosy Cowshed
Kick back and relax...
This boutique-style converted cowshed has been infused with style to create a one of a kind countryside getaway.
You get a cosy cabin feel when you arrive at your stay and step onto your private terrace with hot tub, day bed and dinning space, with a stunning Devon backdrop perfect for switching off with a good book or romantic evenings with a glass of bubbly. Inside you will find a snuggly master bedroom with a cinema screen and a super king size bed, great for snoozes or movie nights. Or perhaps evenings stretched out on the oversize sofa in front of the fire.
With plenty to do in the surrounding area, this little gem is perfect for a relaxing couple’s getaway or a chilled break with your family.
Kids will love the twin room featuring magical canopies that they sleep beneath.
Remember you can bring up to two doggies with you and the garden is fully secured.
