Offering a traditional and welcoming setting, Exmoor Farmhouse is perfect for both family and friends alike looking to explore the peaceful surroundings of this Devonshire beauty spot.

You'll be delighted by the charming whitewashed and wooden cladding exterior of this lovely dwelling, giving a real country farmhouse feel.

Step over the threshold and into the open-plan living space, beautifully appointed with a charming décor, complimented by traditional wooden features.

The sociable spaces boast a snug corner sofa, inviting you to put your feet up after a day full of adventure, alongside a marvellous fitted kitchen, fully-equipped with all of the modern amenities necessary to prepare a heart-warming meal to enjoy gathered around the dining table with your loved ones.

Continuing through the property, enter a second seating area, decorated with exposed wooden beams and an eye-catching inglenook fireplace, housing a warming woodburning stove, where you can snuggle up in the cooler evenings to enjoy a movie night.

Stepping outside, end each day in style with a luxurious seat amongst the bubbles of the hot tub, soaking in the scenic views over the rolling countryside, or escape the excitement and enjoy an hour of peace and quiet as you delve into a captivating book in the charming snug.

As the day draws to a close, head upstairs where you'll find three bedrooms, a super-king-size, benefiting from it's own en-suite bathroom, and two double rooms, traditionally decorated with characterful features and serviced by the neighboring family bathroom.

Take a break from doing the cooking and head into the heart of Bampton, where you'll be spoilt for choice with eateries to suit all tastes, including the award-winning traditional English country inn, The Swan, serving hearty meals prepared with seasonal and regional ingredients in a charming and rustic setting.

Head off to explore your scenic surroundings, where you'll find a host of walking and cycling trails on your doorstep, with the picturesque open moorland of Exmoor National Park within easy reach, one of the smallest and prettiest national parks in Britain, decorated with ancient wooded valleys, magical waterfalls, dramatic coastline and home to the still waters of Wimbleball Lake, where thrill seekers can learn to kayak or paddleboard.

Head further afield and visit the coastal village of Minehead, just across the border in Somerset, to spend a fun-filled day at the beach where you can enjoy an invigorating dip in the scenic waters of Blue Anchor Bay, or if you'd prefer to stay on land, there are an exciting selection of National Trust properties worth visiting, including the gothic Victorian mansion house of Knightshayes Court.

Whether you're planning a day at the beach, or exploring the rugged landscape of Exmoor, choose Exmoor Farmhouse as a base that you'll be delighted to return to.

About the location

BAMPTON, DEVON

Dulverton 6 miles; Tiverton 7.5 miles.

The thriving village of Bampton lies in the Thames Valley in the southern Cotswolds, amidst beautiful Oxfordshire countryside. Bampton is one of the oldest villages in England boasting a village shop, Post Office, butcher, and traditional pubs serving good food and real ales, all set around a pretty market square. Ancient customs can still be experienced with the regular morris dancing festivities, which have been enjoyed for over 600 years. Just four miles away is the riverside town of Witney, which offers many attractions including a weekly market dating back to the Middle Ages, an 18th century town hall, and Wychwood Brewery. Burford is possibly one of the most famous of the Cotswolds' locations. With its medieval bridge, old stone houses and attractive Tudor and Georgian frontages, Burford is justifiably one of the most picturesque towns in England. Often referred to as the 'Gateway to the Cotswolds', the town was originally a fortified Anglo-Saxon ford to be an important regional crossroads and wealthy wool town. With little changing over the centuries. Burford is now very popular with visitors, both for its beauty and history but also for it's shopping and antiques, and for the wide variety of places to eat, with restaurants, pubs and teashops. Oxford, the oldest university city in England, boasts interesting Botanical Gardens, museums and libraries, and plays host to many festivals and markets throughout the year. Enjoy a punt on the River Thames or take a boat trip on the River Cherwell. The ancestral home of Winston Churchill and the World Heritage Site of Blenheim Palace is just a short drive away, where many lovely walks can be enjoyed around the landscaped parkland. With so much nearby, Bampton provides a wonderful holiday destination.
