South Molton 7 miles; Barnstaple 9 miles; Lynton 13 miles.

On the southern edge of Exmoor, the delightful community of Brayford nestles in a wooded river valley 9 miles from Barnstaple.

Country pursuits rule the way of life, with outstanding walking across the Exmoor hills and some of the South West's best salmon and trout fishing, the River Bray being notable for its salmon fishing. The area has many visitor attractions with Lynmouth, Lynton and Combe Martin all within a 30 minute drive and the resort of Ilfracombe and the wave-swept beach at Woolacombe just a little further.

The Property

A modern first floor apartment forming part of the owner’s detached stone-built farmhouse, situated in ten acres of grounds and perched up high overlooking its own woodland walks, lawns, ponds and lakes, bordered by the River Bray, near the village of Brayford. This Devon cottage style apartment, which is light and airy, has been refurbished to a high standard and offers very comfortable home-from-home living. This is a wildlife lover's dream and a walker's paradise. Take a walk through the woods, relax on the cottage lawn with a glass of wine or enjoy a spot of fly fishing on the river. This is a relaxing retreat providing an excellent base for exploring Exmoor, the North Devon coast or The Tarka Trail, which passes yards from this wonderful corner of Devon, and this lovely Devon cottage apartment.

Previous visitors' comments about Acorn Retreat:

The description of the cottage and its surroundings were a true reflection and we had everything we could have wanted.
Mr MacDonald, Watford, June 2012

Fabulous property, ideal for a quiet weekend away from the city and away from the noise. Very quiet, property owners were very pleasant - the furnishings and the property was excellent. Close to the coast and to local markets and only 15 minutes to a supermarket to top up for food, drink etc. Ideal for pets as well. 5* really.
Mrs Lewis, Wokingham, April 2012

A very nice holiday apartment in a lovely situation. Ideal for exploring the North Devon coastline and Exmoor - a beautiful region. We were lucky with the weather as well.
Mr Blackman, Bristol, September 2011

A lovely 'retreat' set in beautiful grounds. Very welcoming and clean.
