It has excellent farm shops, pubs, restaurants, a castle, the Museum of Dartmoor Life and a cinema. The very best local walks are on your doorstep, from country lanes to woodland, meadows and riverside rambles. Bring your own bikes to journey along the impressive Granite Way cycle path two minutes away, which is also perfect for jogging. Go horse riding on the moor or visit Roadford Lake, 20 minutes away, popular for water sports, fishing, paddle boarding and kayaking, as well as sailing. The train station, just three minutes away, gives you access to the whole of Devon, catch a bus to Bude and all north and south cost beaches.

- 1 night
£80.00 per night
A marvellous base from which to explore Exmoor National Park, The Hunter's Inn offers the traditional charm of a country Inn but with a modern twist. Located in the parish of Martinhoe, the seaside town of Ilfracombe and the beautiful North Devon coast is just a 25-minute drive from the front door. There are five types of room to choose from so that everyone is catered for, regardless of who is in your party. Each one is elegantly furnished and equipped with a flat screen TV, tea and coffee making facilities, and a stylish en-suite bathroom. For larger groups the two bedroom apartment is a fantastic option, with a twin room and one with a large double bed. Alternatively there are two different types of family room. There is either one with a double bed and two single beds, or a double bed with a just the one single. For those who want a romantic trip away there is the superior double room, or the standard, while there is also a standard twin. With the picturesque countryside as the backdrop The Hunter's Inn is situated among amazing gardens and there is a terrace with outdoor furniture so you can sit down and enjoy your surroundings when the weather is nice. A buffet breakfast is included with the room and is served in the on-site restaurant. It is also open for lunch and dinner with a varied a la carte menu. Afterwards, guests can enjoy a drink at the bar, or in the cosy and comfy lounge area. Of course, one of the main attractions of the Inn is its location. There are plenty of hiking and cycling routes available right on your doorstep and guests are encouraged to head out and explore the natural beauty of Exmoor. For history lovers Watermouth Castle is worth a visit. Then a little further beyond is the wild and woolly coastline, with highlights including Bull Point Lighthouse in the village of Mortenhoe, and the golden sands of Woolacombe Beach. The area is also a surfer’s paradise with boards to hire and classes on offer for those of all abilities.

Great Burrows Stable
- 0
- 2 nights min stay
£135.00 per night
With effortless grace, Great Burrow Stable blends the deep, rich colours of a chic hotel with the peace of the Devon countryside. Inside, you’ll find plush red armchairs, ornate screens and hints of brass picked out by vintage lighting, while outside under the covered porch, nature is left to work her own magic. The dining table and chairs are where you’ll sit in the morning with a coffee, or finish the day with a glass of something while you debate who gets the swing or the bath first. Both are beautiful on a starry night, but equally atmospheric when the rain is drumming on the roof above. While the cabin has all the modern flourishes – fridge, TV, wifi – owners Mary and Justin, who left London in search of a different way of life, have created a space perfect for unhooking from the modern world and truly relaxing. You can hike straight from the door on woodland trails, hit the coast in half an hour, nip over to Dartmoor, or stroll through the woods to the local pub for dinner. If you prefer to cook, then pick up ingredients from Okehampton’s organic grocer, to add to the local milk and the eggs from the hens you’ll see wandering past the cabin. You’ll possibly spot Theo, a neighbour’s horse who lives in the field next door, while all around you the health of lightly tended land means deer, rabbits, owls and woodpeckers are all common sights. All you have to do is decide if you’ll be spotting from the deck recliner, the lounge chairs, the swing or the bath.
