Fremington

Fremington, in North Devon and marketed as sitting near Barnstaple, is home to Penhill Tack Room, a converted holiday let offering an alternative to staying in the town itself. This one-bedroom property sleeps two and takes in views over the river Taw from its bedroom, reached via a mezzanine-style staircase. Downstairs, an open-plan lounge, kitchen and diner combines exposed beams with underfloor heating, a wood burner and a Smart TV, while a separate shower room and utility space with washing machine and tumble drier complete the practical layout.

Outside, guests have use of an enclosed garden with outdoor seating, a wood-fired hot tub, and access to an orchard for those wanting a stroll away from the house. Private off-road parking is provided for one car, along with electric vehicle charging on site. The property welcomes up to two dogs, making it a workable base for those travelling with pets who want their own outdoor space in this part of North Devon.
