Description
Kingsbridge 0.9 miles.
Horsemans Barn is a wonderful reverse-level barn conversion situated in the heart of charming West Alvington near Kingsbridge, Devon.
With convenient access to local shops and a welcoming pub, this pet-friendly retreat offers designated off-road parking and serves as an ideal base for families or friends seeking a relaxing getaway.
Descend the stairs to the lower-ground-floor where you will find two well-accompanied bedrooms; a double which benefits from direct access to the front of the property allowing plenty of light to flood in, and a twin room which can be converted into a super-king-size on request.
Both rooms offer a delightful space to rest those sleepy heads after a day of coastal adventures.
The bathroom, complete with a P-shaped bath and shower over, is an ideal spot for a relaxing soak or a quick refresh before heading out for a new fun-filled day.
The heart of the home is the open-plan living area, where you can enjoy the company of your loved ones.
The contemporary kitchen is fully-equipped with everything you need to prepare and whip up delicious meals, which can be enjoyed at the dining table set for four.
After dinner, retreat to the sitting room and snuggle up in front of the Smart TV, with a selection of books and a warming woodburning stove to keep you entertained during those chillier evenings.
Outside, the property boasts two gardens; a non-enclosed rear garden with a lawn and table tennis for some friendly competition, and an enclosed rear garden with decking, a lawn, and furniture.
Whether you're enjoying a morning coffee or dining alfresco, these outdoor spaces provide the perfect setting to relax and unwind.
Venture into the vibrant town of Kingsbridge, where you’ll find a delightful selection of pubs, restaurants, and shops to explore, perfect for satisfying your cravings after a day of adventure.
Experience the stunning South West Coast Path and picturesque coastal villages such as Salcombe, Hope Cove, Thurlestone, and Bantham, offering idyllic spots for swimming, sunbathing, and enjoying fresh seafood.
For those seeking a more rugged adventure, the breathtaking Dartmoor National Park is just a short drive away, boasting extensive hiking trails and abundant wildlife, ensuring a memorable outdoor experience.

What guests are saying
We found Horsemans Barn to be exactly what we needed during a very difficult time while my sister was undergoing surgery.
Horsemans Barn became a little sanctuary for us all, with beautiful fields to walk around with such a peaceful atmosphere. The table tennis was also a welcoming distraction from such a stressful time. Kathryn & Andrew were incredibly welcoming and thoughtful, regularly checking in on us to see if we needed anything. Their kindness made us feel so well looked after during a very emotional week. What made our stay even more special was that my sister was able to come and spend some time at the barn during her recovery. She immediately felt comfortable, relaxed and calm. It was definitely the welcoming space that she also needed. The beds were wonderfully comfortable, and the garden was a lovely place to sit and unwind with a glass of wine or a coffee in the morning. Everything about Horsemans Barn was perfect for our needs, and we are so grateful for the care and comfort we experienced there. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend it to anyone looking for a peaceful and beautiful place to stay.
Thank you for a great week at Horseman’s Barn.
It was great to be able to walk safely and easily into Kingsbridge whilst having the advantages of a bit more space, parking, lots of outdoor space and countryside views that West Alvington gave us. We were super lucky with the weather, being there in a heatwave. The downstairs bedrooms kept reasonably cool and there was always options for shade or sun in the enclosed garden. We also had fun playing table tennis on the open garden. The house was clean and the kitchen had all the equipment we needed. Communications with the owner were very friendly. Thanks for a lovely week.
Lovely cottage.
Well located. Accurate listing. Exciting driveway(!). Well furnished. Comfortable bedroom. A few minor suggestions: Would have liked some coathooks by the door in the living area. The access door by the kitchen needs attention - we sometimes struggled to lock it. We found the sofa bed somewhat uncomfortable to sit on for any length of time. Would be useful to have somewhere to put a hand towl by the washbasin. The shower controller for the overhead / handheld rose was really difficult to turn. The bathroom towel rail needs refixing to the wall as it is hanging loose. All minor niggles really.
