Copper Kettle Cottage

Summary

Copper Kettle Cottage offers wonderfully appointed rural self catering accommodation nestled on a 53 acre organic estate in Little Bray, not far from Barnstaple in North Devon. With interiors which are sympathetic to the original features of this country building and an excellent location for exploring this beautiful part of the country, our holiday cottage is a real gem that has to be seen to be believed.

Our splendid holiday properties consist of Copper Kettle Cottage, a wonderful 3 bedroom cottage full of character and Ladybird Barn, another 3 bedroom property but with a contemporary feel.

Copper Kettle Cottage

The property is a wonderful 3 bedroom cottage full of character and Ladybird Barn, another 3 bedroom property but with a contemporary feel. Through the stable door entrance, you enter into a beautiful pastel blue galley style kitchen with integrated fitted kitchen appliances and every modern convenience you could require.

Downstairs is a wonderful country style lounge/diner, it is full of squashy sofas and cushions, pictures and curious and a pine dining table with 6 chairs. There is a wall bookcase full of books, boxes of jigsaws and games and an assortment of family DVDs with flat screen TV. It is a large lounge with beams so please mind your head if you are tall. The cast iron log burner gives it a real country charm.

Copper Kettle Cottage is centrally heated out of season with an endless supply of logs for the log burner (help yourself to logs) for a cosy night in whatever the weather.

Upstairs there are 3 bedrooms, (A double, a twin and a single bed with a pull out guest bed). Bed linen, towels and beach towels are all provided as well as tea towels, bath mats and environmentally friendly cleaning products. The family sized bathroom is gorgeous, with a large walk in shower and a family sized bath.

Outside the cottage to the front is a large lawn and seating area. We also have a large acre flat field where great football matches take place, just ask Lewis or Frazer to show you were.

We put a scrummy seasonal welcome pack in the cottage for your arrival, normally a home cooked cake, tea, coffee and sugar, organic milk, some local Scrumpy Cider and seasonal vegetables pulled that morning from our vegetable garden. Eggs are always available, collect your own and just visit the Hen House.

Why not take advantage and have a supermarket deliver groceries in advance of your arrival? We also have a number of Farm Shops close by, a village store and numerous Farmers Markets throughout the week.

We've a super treehouse, with a linked rope walk obviously it's great for kids but also for adults as it makes an excellent vantage spot to hide away and photograph the deer and owls and we have a delightful "secret" freshwater swimming lake with a 40" slide and lake house with a log burner that is hidden away and can only be accessed along a magical track.

There's fishing tackle you can borrow and try your hand at fly fishing for trout, a boat with life jackets and even a slide.

Ladybird Barn

Ladybird Barn is the largest of the two properties. It has 3 bedrooms which consist of a double, twin and bunk room. There is an open plan living/dining room which is equipped with a wood burner, TV and Wi-Fi. Leading off the Lounge is a modern style kitchen with integrated fitted kitchen appliances and every modern convenience you could require.

Outside there is a chimnea and a BBQ.

Visiting South Molton & Exploring Devon

There is much to do in and around South Molton for visitors of all ages. The main attraction in the town itself is Quince Honey Farm where you can see the worlds largest exhibition of honey bees. We also have a Chocolate Factory where you can indulge your sweet tooth and an award winning museum. Or if you’re feeling energetic, have a swim in the local pool or have a go at rock climbing on the outskirts of town. Market days are a must - Saturday is the Pannier Market and on Thursday you will see the cattle market as well. You will also find excellent Devon scenery with some fabulous countryside with lots of walks and a growing cycle network to take you across Exmoor and North Devon.
