South Tawton

Farm stays and countryside cottages in rural Devon

South Tawton sits in rural Devon, and the accommodation here reflects that working countryside setting. Holly Hock is a three-bedroom stone cottage on a working farm, sleeping six across two king-size rooms and a twin, each served by one of three bathrooms. Inside, an open-plan reception, dining and lounge area draws light through glass patio doors, and a wood burner set in a stone inglenook provides warmth after dark. The well-equipped kitchen runs to a double electric oven, induction hob, dishwasher and fridge-freezer, with a utility cupboard housing a washing machine and tumble dryer.

Outside, a private patio with hot tub sits alongside shared grounds that include a children’s play area, a trampoline and three fishing lakes. The farm also has stabling for horses by prior arrangement, a Pilates studio and a beauty treatment room bookable directly with the owner. Up to five dogs are welcome, making Holly Hock a practical base for larger groups travelling with pets.
