If you were looking for cottages like Lower Upcott Farm, how about trying these:

Lower Upcott Farm and its detached 'grand design' barn conversion housing a games-room and 'private cinema' TV-room together create a unique and breathtaking holiday property for ten guests.

Add to this a wonderful stone terrace and huge lawns which truly celebrate the views and a pretty woodland copse, with a maze of paths, for children to play in. This stunning and spacious period farmhouse is an easy drive inland from the endless sandy surfing beaches of the north Devon coast.

The tranquil setting is very private and rural, high up on the side of an unspoilt valley outside the pretty village of Chittlehampton, with utterly stunning panoramic views. Without a doubt Lower Upcott is a very special holiday home. The farmhouse has been beautifully renovated and has lovely light-filled sociable living space that opens out onto the really large south-facing terrace with the gardens spread out beyond it. The view stretches for miles and all four of the farmhouse bedrooms enjoy the same outlook.

Behind the farmhouse is the amazing and spacious detached barn conversion - included in your rental - which doubles up as an indoor games-room for you all to use. With high ceilings to the open plan living space, which has large sofas, a giant TV screen, a wood-burning stove and under-floor heating, it is a perfect add-on to the main house.

The main farmhouse has the flexibility of a really large open plan living-room with kitchen and dining areas as the main social space, complete with a wood-burning stove and space for guests to eat together. There are a few steps down to the sofa-area at the far end of the room which has floor to ceiling bookshelves and a whole library of books for you to enjoy whilst there. There is a walk-through music-room with a piano - the stairs to the first floor rise from this space, and beyond it is the cosy snug with wood-burning stove and TV.

The stunning open plan space of the barn provides you with the fifth bedroom with en suite facilities, further relaxed seating for all ten of you, table-tennis, and, in effect, a cinema-room, such is the size of the TV screen! Lower Upcott Farm is not overlooked by any other properties and has the most fabulous gardens surrounding the property.

Bookings for ten guests are available in all the school holidays - please see the availability chart - but you can book the main farmhouse and have use of the open plan living-room (with table-tennis and table-football) in the barn at a reduced rate for six or eight guests at all other times of the year - please see Lower Upcott (3998) for more details.
