Devon Hideaway: Historic Barn, Jacuzzi & Expansive Exmoor Views

Welcome to Our Devon Hideaway!

Nestled deep within Devon's lush landscapes, our historic barn conversion offers a sublime blend of past elegance and present luxury. Once owned by the iconic band Hawkwind, our property now stands as a testament to timeless charm, gracefully merging with modern comforts.

Living Spaces Crafted for Comfort
As you step inside, a spacious lounge awaits, adorned with a smart TV and a crackling woodburning stove, casting its warm glow across the room. Generous windows drench the interiors in soft natural light, setting a tranquil tone for your stay.

Slumber in Style
Your nights promise serenity. Our master bedroom boasts a plush king-size bed, designed to whisk you away into dreamy slumbers. A double bed graces another room, while the third offers two single beds. For those needing additional space, our games room features a cozy futon.

A Culinary Heartbeat
The heart of any home lies in its kitchen. Ours stands out with a traditional AGA cooker, beckoning culinary enthusiasts to weave their gastronomic magic. Paired with modern amenities, every meal becomes an occasion.

Indulgence & Entertainment
Our games room emerges as the perfect antidote to a rainy day. Dive into its treasure trove of board games, lose yourself in captivating reads, or go digital with a PlayStation 3, Nintendo Wii, and a retro arcade machine teeming with over 3000 classics. Yet, the true jewel remains the breathtaking 30-mile Exmoor views, best enjoyed while unwinding in our 7-seater jacuzzi.

Outdoor Euphoria
Step outside, and our property unfolds its magic. From the lush private garden to a large trampoline, and a fairy-lit treehouse, every corner promises delight. The expansive fields, home to our friendly sheep, invite leisurely strolls or even a spontaneous picnic.

Prime Location with a Hint of History
History buffs will revel in the knowledge that our home once played host to a music festival by Hawkwind. While history adorns every nook, our location seals the deal. We're a stone's throw from a picturesque golf course and just 1.5 miles from the quintessential village of High Bickington.

Environmental Thoughtfulness
For our eco-conscious guests, we offer an electric vehicle charging station, ensuring your green rides remain juiced up for your Devon explorations.

A Pet’s Paradise
We understand that pets are family. Thus, we warmly welcome up to two dogs, ensuring they, too, enjoy a slice of Devon's beauty. All we ask is for a gentle reminder to our four-legged friends to respect our resident sheep.

In essence, our hideaway promises more than just a stay. It's an experience, a journey through time, luxury, and unparalleled beauty. Whether you're a couple seeking romance, a group chasing adventure, or a family desiring quality time, our Devon abode crafts memories that linger.

Family Christmas
Just got home from a fab time in this beautiful cottage. Owners Nathen and Helen so friendly and made us all feel so welcome. The cottage has everything and more you need for your stay. Christmas tree and decs were beautiful and the home made scones melt in your mouth 😋😋. From the beautiful decorated cottage, really comfy beds, amazing views from hot tub too. Dogs enjoyed their stay and cooking on a Aga for first time with tips, and guides given we had a perfect Christmas roast. I could of stayed longer, truly relaxing time. 😁

The perfect local escape
Five of us came here from Exeter for a relaxing break before the school holidays finished and we all had to go back to work. We wanted somewhere cosy to play board games by a fire but with enough space that we could spread out and do our own things during the day. Stairway to Devon gave us all these things and threw in a brilliant hot tub as well! Helen and Nathan were fantastic hosts, making sure we had everything we needed including information on how to cook with an Aga (we got the hang of it). As we left one of our cars wouldn’t start and they were incredibly kind and got help from a neighbour who helped jump start the car so we could be on our way. Highly recommend for some quiet time away at any time of the year - even if the weather is bad there’s plenty to do! Thank you Helen and Nathan!

Awesome place
Awesome place. Wonderful hosts. The house is very well equipped. Easily the best place we have stayed at. The hot tub, fire-pit, arcade and popcorn machine were all big hits. We loved it.

Everything we could ever need
We had such a lovely stay at 'Stairway to Devon'. Nathan and Helen were very welcoming, with a few ciders and scones ready for our arrival. The house was beautifully presented and had everything we could possibly dream of. The games room kept the children (2-7 year old) totally entertained and the adults loved it too. Little touches like the popcorn machine and corns to pop and the ninja blender for some yummy cocktails made it a wonderful stay and far and above any house stay I have experienced before. As with any British holiday, you run a risk of having bad weather and unfortunately we had a lot of rain but with the hot tub and endless things to do in the house our spirits couldn't be dampened, despite the rain's best efforts! Thank you again, you have thought of everything!!!

Amazing stay at Barn End Cottage
Wow! We are so pleased that we discovered Barn End Cottage. We stayed here with our 3 boys aged from 6 to 16 and my Mum, and there was something to keep everyone entertained. We all loved the hot tub (with the best view!) and the boys loved the trampoline, tree house and games room. The cottage itself is lovely and clean and homely, and has literally everything that you could possibly need. Helen and Nathan are so welcoming and have thought of everything to make your stay a very special one. We all felt sad to leave and would definitely come back again if we get the chance. Thanks again for an amazing stay.

ambitionierte Neulinge unter den Sternen Devon‘s
wunderschönes Anwesen & Haus inmitten fantastischer Natur! die Besitzer haben uns warmherzig empfangen und unseren Aufenthalt mit zahlreichen Tipps bereichert - Gross & Klein waren rundum begeistert! Ein Auto ist unerlässlich (dürfte sich vonselbst verstehen). Richtig, eins noch: der „AGA“ (Danke für die Instruktion an Nathan) ist ein Erlebnis - für wen sich darauf einlässt … in unserer Familie jedenfalls ist die „AGA-baked“ Pizza bereits legendär.
