About this property

Philham Parlour is a beautifully detached converted barn, well-appointed and offering spacious accommodation. It offers a secure private courtyard garden with an outdoor seating area and access to a large paddock. Situated in a small hamlet and overlooking the rolling countryside, the Parlour is just 3.2 miles (10 min drive) miles from Hartland Quay and 1.2 miles (4 min drive / 25 min walk) to Hartland village which boasts 2 shops, a café and 3 pubs all of which offer great menus. With easy access to the Atlantic Way (A39), you can venture out and about to neighbouring coastal towns such as Bude or Bideford both 14 miles away (30 min drive) and Clovelly 5.8 miles (14 min drive).
In a quiet part of Devon, that is usually bypassed by tourists, you can experience the rugged Southwest Coastal Path with views to Lundy Island. Enjoy the quiet, open countryside and local attractions nearby or you can dip in and out of the busier tourist hot spots.
Sandy beaches can be found nearby in Sandymouth (National Trust car park, 12 miles / 25 min drive), Bude & Crockletts (14 miles / 30 min drive), and Widemouth Bay (17 miles / 32 min drive) all of which offer excellent surfing and body boarding experiences, as well as outdoor activities for all ages.
Please note that in high season (1st April to 30th September) our changeover day is a Saturday. There are out of season short breaks are available. There is also a two bedroom option during the low season that is priced accordingly. Please see our other listing reference 10938159 for prices and availability.

Great rural location, spacious base

Warm welcome on arrival, comfortable base, visited Bude, Hartland Quay, Westward Ho. Dartington glassworks a bit of a highlight, along with those scones, cream and jam.

Lovely break with friends

This property was ideal for our annual get together (5 ladies). Three well appointed bedrooms, all en-suite. A very well equipped kitchen and warm and cosy with central heating and a log burner. Ideally placed for various walks and close to pubs for bar meals or Sunday roast. Kris made us very welcome and her gift of a gluten free cream tea was much appreciated. The whole was spotlessly clean. Thank you, we thoroughly enjoyed it.

The perfect family break.

A very comfortable home with stunning views of rolling hills and high-hedged lanes. We absolutely loved it here - thank you Kris and Pete for sharing your paddock - our morning coffee will never be the same! We explored the area on foot - walking along the coastal path. The coastline is so beautiful and the locals so friendly. We hope to return soon!

Perfect Easter break

Fabulous weekend spent at the barn. Firstly communication with Kris was spot on, quick to reply to messages and very helpful. The barn was exactly as listed,plenty of space for the 6 of us but very cosy too. It was just perfect, beautiful outside seating areas, a basket of logs for the woodburner and a very welcoming cream tea when we arrived. We had some lovely walks in the area, and visited the local pubs too, just perfect!

Hidden gem!

We had a wonderful break at the Parlour in Hartland! The accommodation was immaculate, spacious and very well equipped. The welcome gift of a gluten free cream tea was a very thoughtful addition, and reflected the care put into the details to provide for an easy and enjoyable stay. We would highly recommend!
