    “Lake view was amazing and the owner Samantha was so helpful, she gave us so much information on places to visit.”

    On arrival there was was a wonderful tray with tea coffee sugar biscuits. The fridge was stocked with eggs milk and a bottle of Prosecco in the wine fridge. The cottage has everything you might need and I mean everything. This is a beautiful house, so well presented with the most gorgeous finishing touches. There are board games galore and toys for little ones. There are books to suit all tastes. The garden is brilliant and a great space for children and adults, it is gorgeous. I could go on ...

I could go on all day and still not give all the positives, it is simply perfection.

The property

Lapford 4.1 miles.

Lake View is a beautifully-designed, Grade II listed barn conversion in East Worlington near Lapford, surrounded by the undulating hills of North Devon.

With an open-plan living space, bedrooms with en-suites, and family-friendly amenities, the property welcomes a family or group of eight to celebrate a special occasion in a wonderful environment.

Off-road parking for three cars ensures an easy arrival to admire your picture-perfect home-from-home nestled in a rural paradise; the barn has been thoughtfully restored to complement its rustic character with contemporary comforts throughout.

After a country stroll, enter the porch to find an antique church pew to sit and take off your boots, coat hooks, and a convenient ground-floor shower room to wash the dogs!

Wooden beams, exposed stone walls, and country furnishings create a unique living space in the heart of the property, where guests can cook together in the spacious, well-equipped kitchen area, which includes a double electric oven and hob, large American fridge-freezer, and dishwasher for an easy cleanup; don't forget to pop your favourite bottles in the wine cooler for an after-dinner tipple!

Serve meals at the large dining table for eight, which is ideal for a delicious breakfast with views of the countryside through two bifold doors.

During the summer, open them up to let some fresh air in, or dine alfresco at the outdoor seating.

The enclosed garden has lots of lawn space for pets and little children to run around, while the hot tub invites you to relax and unwind in the bubbles.

Escape down to the bottom of the garden where you will find a fantastic new BBQ hut, seating in the region of 12-15 people - here you can enjoy a BBQ in a completely different atmosphere with family and friends whatever the weather.

Gather in the sitting area as night falls for a movie night on the TV, complete with Sky to catch up on your favourite shows or choose from a collection of books and games to keep the whole party entertained.

Lake View also has a utility room with a washing machine and tumble dryer to keep holiday clothes fresh, and you can spend more time relaxing!

In this fantastic property, each guest can enjoy a uniquely styled bedroom with a contemporary en-suite and storage space; a ground-floor super-king-size is ideal for elderly guests or those with limited mobility, while three more bedrooms, including a super-king-size with a Juliet balcony overlooking the lake, another king-size, and a twin, can be found upstairs.

If you can tear yourself away from your holiday hideaway, the nearby village of Lapford has a 16th-century pub The Old Malt Scoop Inn, as well as a convenience store where you can stock up on necessities; this ancient village dates back to the Iron Age Celts and is now a pleasant tourist destination with open spaces for ball games and a children's playground.

Pack your clubs and head south to Crediton, where you can put your skills to the test at the town's golf club or enjoy a leisurely stroll through Shobrooke Park to find the perfect picnic location.

In Tiverton, budding historians will find relics to uncover in the numerous halls of Tiverton Castle, as well as the magnificent, gothic Knightshayes Court surrounded by formal gardens and woods; soak in local history at Tiverton Museum Of Mid Devon Life before dining at one of the many cafés.

The old city of Exeter is a must-see during your trip, with attractions such as the Royal Albert Memorial Museum and Art Gallery, a tour of the interesting Underground Passages, and marvel at the 11th-century Exeter Castle, which frequently organises concerts and events in its courtyard.

Treat your loved ones to an amazing visit at Lake View, with so much to see and do from a great vacation home.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £350.
