Stable Tallet is a beautiful barn conversion to one side of the historic farmstead here, in its own gardens and with its own driveway.
The delightful sitting-room is warmed by a wood-burner keeping you cosy whatever the weather.
The farmhouse-style kitchen has flagstone floors and is equipped as a home-from-home.
One of the pretty bedrooms.
The hot tub is on the terrace at the back of the cottage.

Snuggle up and relax on the gorgeous sofas.
Relax in front of the Smart TV in the sitting-room.
This is the dining-area of the kitchen, with its lovely farmhouse kitchen table.

Some of the other residents at the farm.
You can visit the Seaton Wetlands any time but the bird hides are not open every day so do check.
The famous Seaton Tramway is a must! There is a station in Colyton and the route along the Axe Valley is beautiful.
Seaton has a pretty harbour as well as the long pebbled beach.
The coastal town of Seaton is just a few miles away. This is the brand new Jurassic Visitor Centre - a great place to visit with young children.

TwinStable Tallet is in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty close to east Devon’s stunning Jurassic Coast. Set on a friendly working farm, this detached home-from-home has the bonus of a hot tub on the sunny terrace, a garden with children’s play-area, and a separate shared games-room. The spacious and flexible accommodation overlooks open farmland, and as well as three upstairs bedrooms there is a bedroom with a shower downstairs.
Guests share the farm’s coarse fishing lake (not within the cottage grounds) with two other properties, which is stocked with roach, carp and perch. The beach at Seaton and the Axe estuary’s nature reserves are very close by and for local shops, pubs and cafes, Colyton is a five minute drive.
Should you wish to bring extended family or friends there is another property at the location The Barn (4982).
From this ideal base, you can easily explore both Devon and Dorset. The wonderful stretch of east Devon coastline here has a chain of pretty fishing villages such as Beer and Branscombe and traditional seaside towns such as Sidmouth and Budleigh Salterton.
Crossing the border into Dorset, just a few miles away is Lyme Regis with the famous Cobb Harbour and a lovely sandy beach. Beyond that is Charmouth which is of course ever popular with families for fossil hunting. Take a boat trip out into Lyme Bay for a spot of mackerel fishing or just to admire the coastline from the sea.
The countryside inland is beautiful here too, dotted with unspoilt villages and little market towns such as Axminster or Bridport with its weekly market to browse in. Honiton is another great place for a visit with its reputation for antiques shops and the Cathedral City of Exeter is another good day out.
If you simply want to switch off and forget about the car, the terrace hot tub, garden and games-room will be all that you need.
