The property

The Old Millhouse is a charming barn conversion situated in the picturesque village of Welcombe, Devon.

Surrounded by expansive farmland, this family-friendly retreat offers delightful panoramic coastal views.

With a nearby thatched pub and a shared play area, it's perfect for families or friends seeking a serene escape.

Set your sights in the large shared garden, where an indulgent hot tub (not shared) invites you to unwind under the stars.

Dine alfresco on the picnic bench, or meander along the shared lawned garden, where children can enjoy the play area complete with a swing, slide, and other play equipment, ensuring hours of entertainment.

Upon entering the property, you will be greeted by two inviting bedrooms, a king-size room, and a spacious family room, both with TVs for those lazy mornings in bed and ample wardrobe space for those longer stays.

The sleek bathroom boasts an elegant corner bath as well as a separate walk-in shower, where you can choose between a relaxing soak to ease tired muscles or a quick refreshing rinse to wash the sand from beneath your toes after a day at the beach.

Ascend to the first floor to discover the heart of the home, an open-plan area that houses a well-equipped kitchen and dining area, perfect for preparing and enjoying home-cooked meals.

Adjacent to this, you will find a welcoming sitting room, complete with a plush leather corner sofa, TV, DVD player, and CD player, offering a relaxing space to get lost in the rolling countryside and sea views.

For a peaceful retreat, step into the snug where you can unwind with a good book or claim the TV for yourself, enjoying some quiet time away from the day’s activities.

Just a stone's throw away from the property, you'll be spoilt for choice with local attractions including The Milky Way Adventure Park, perfect for an exhilarating day out for the whole family, or spend a relaxing day picnicking and exploring the natural beauty of the National Trust's Duckpool.

Sea-lovers can bask in the sun at Welcombe Mouth Beach, enveloped around rugged cliffs where you impress the locals with how you catch a wave or lace up your hiking boots to meander towards the Northern end to discover a picture-postcard cascading waterfall.

Take a step back in time at Hartland Abbey, revealing over 900 years of ecclesiastical history, or marvel at the raw power of nature at Speke's Mill Mouth Waterfall.

If you’re feeling adventurous, swing by the Tamar Lakes Activity Centre for water sports, or visit Hawker's Hut, Britain's smallest National Trust property offering stunning coastal views.

There’s something for everyone in Welcombe village, ensuring a memorable stay at The Old Millhouse.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £250.

About the location

WELCOMBE

Bude 12 miles; Bideford 14 miles.

A pretty country village just one mile from the high cliffs, rocky coves and golden sands of the north Devon/Cornwall coast, as well as the beach at Welcombe Mouth with its sand, rocks, and some fabulous waves to ride. West, along the coast, are excellent beaches at Widemouth Bay, Sandymouth and Bude. To the north the coast path winds its way toward Hartland Point Lighthouse and on to Clovelly (8 miles) with its steep cobbled streets leading down to the harbour and pub below. No cars allowed here but you can hire a donkey for the ride! In the nearby area are several farm and theme parks, golf courses and outstanding gardens whilst the amenities of Bude are a mere 12 miles away. Everything for an enjoyable holiday.
