About this property
The Linhay, Kings Nympton - Quiet, very rural thatched barn near great pub.
Nestled in the heart of the beautiful North Devon countryside on the outskirts of the quiet village of Kings Nympton, this grade 2 listed thatched barn conversion provides a peaceful place to relax as well as a good hub for exploring the area.
We have over 100 5 star reviews on another well known booking website, please check them out!
About the property
There are two bedrooms which can accommodate up to 4 adults and 2 children. The upstairs bedroom has a double bed and next door is a large shower room. The ground floor bedroom is on 3 levels and has a bunk bed and a kingsize bed. This room also has its own ensuite bathroom with shower over. The kingsize bed has limited headroom on one side and is accessed via a small ladder (like an adult cabin bed) but makes for an exciting and cosy nights sleep.
The modern kitchen is fully equipped with everything you could need, including induction hob, microwave, fridge with small freezer compartment and most importantly a dishwasher. Off the hallway is another toilet and also a washing machine should you need it.
Things to do
Situated between both Exmoor and Dartmoor national parks there are plenty of options for walkers, cyclists and lovers of the great outdoors. Fishing and shooting are also popular in this area and we are in a dark spot which makes for some incredibly starry skies. The beaches of Saunton and Croyde are 25 miles away (45mins) for surfing or building sand castles. There are maps and a guidebook full of ideas in the property.
Dogs are welcome but please keep them off the furniture and out of the bedrooms. There is an enclosed garden with outdoor table and chairs, a perfect place for your pooch to mooch or for you to enjoy some alfresco dining or even a bit of bird spotting (weather permitting!)

About the host
Hosted by Sarah Chisholm

We escaped to the country from Bristol in 2016 and haven't looked back since. We live next door with our 2 children, a friendly springer spaniel and our cat. We love the great outdoors and enjoy exploring the area whenever we can. When at home we can usually be found in the garden or at the local pub on a Friday night! James & Sarah
Why they chose this property
We love the peace and quiet being on the edge of the village, yet still within walking distance to the pub!
What makes this property unique
Full of character the Linhay is a listed barn with high ceilings and a private garden giving a great feeling of space. The accommodation works well for both families with 2 or more children or equally for 2 couples each having their own bathrooms. The quirky cabin bed is always a hit with kids!
