Bude 7 miles.
Holsworthy 4.1 miles.
Hoppers Barn is a fabulous, contemporary dwelling resting on historic Dunsdon Farm which is noted in the Doomsday Book, now managed for the conservation of habitat and wildlife.
No longer a working farm, with access to 15 acres of woodland and 10 acres of meadows, to which guests have access and within reach of the North Cornwall coast, this is a fabulous choice for a family or group of friends.
Dunsdon Farm is also home to one of north Devon’s very few purpose-built wildlife towers, constructed to plans drawn up by the Barn Owl Trust to provide habitat for a huge range of birds, bats, toads, lizards and butterflies.The nest boxes are fitted with cameras, allowing Hoppers Barn guests to watch any activity online in the barn.The owners can't guarantee that you'll see anything, but if chicks do start to hatch, you'll be the first to know.
An enchanting rural retreat, this former stone barn enjoys an enviable location within easy reach of some of Cornwall's best beaches as well as the vast Devonshire countryside, catering to all activity preferences.
Enter through the large heavy door, beneath the unique porch, coming into the first floor of this amazing abode; to your right is the large country kitchen, host to a range of appliances to cook up some fabulous dishes.
Taking centre stage under the vast apex and original beams is the dining area, perfect for gathering the group together at mealtimes or for planning your trip.
Rest and relax within the sitting area arranged around the warming wood burning stove in the corner and the TV, while the little ones can have their own snug space up on the mezzanine level above this to lounge on comfy bean bags whilst playing a board game.
Head down the handsome wooden staircase to three pristine bedrooms on the ground floor.
Choose from a king-size with an en-suite shower room, a twin room which can be transformed to a super king if needed thanks to zip/link features, and another twin room, all with great attention to detail with pretty linens, ample storage for your belongings and a TV.
Freshen up in the shared bathroom on this floor which has a bath with a shower over, so you can enjoy a long soak when you need a quiet moment.
Dine alfresco in the summer months on the front patio while the little ones run around on the lawn or begin your mornings outside for breakfast.
Your private garden includes a Big Green Egg BBQ, garden furniture and firepit.
On your very doorstop is the Dunsdon National Nature Reserve, where you can enjoy a delightful walk, or head a little further to Tamar Lakes Activity Centre at Upper Tamar Lake 3 miles away, where a host of activities wait for all ages.
Travel to Bude on the Cornish coast where you'll find dog friendly beaches, plenty of good eateries or try your hand at surfing with many surf schools happy to help you get on a board for the first time.
If you prefer calmer waters then take a dip in the Bude Sea Pool, popular for swimming and paddleboarding.
Walkers will enjoy discovering the coastal landscapes from the South West Coast Path, coming across Cornwall's delightful villages and towns along the way like Crackington Haven, Boscastle, and Tintagel.
Close to beaches, countryside and lots of family friendly attractions, Hoppers Barn is a fabulous hidden gem.

Wonderful stay at Hoppers Barn The barn was comfy and cosy and had everything you needed The nearby woodland walk was perfect for us travelling with dogs
I love this holiday home.
We were welcomed by Tracy when we arrived. She was lovely and gave us information about the property and areas we could go for a walk near the property. A lovely interesting garden to sit out in. The accommodation was perfect for us and my grandson loved the mezzanine. The area was so quiet and peaceful which was just what we needed. We would book again Kind regards Sandra
We have enjoyed our time here, Adam and Tracey are really great host.
The property is clean and being kept to a high standard, cooking utensils and tableware are of excellent qualities. Thanks to Adam and Tracey’s hospitality, we have really enjoyed the time staying in Hoppers Barn!
