Lovely Devon barn, near Exeter, set in 15 acres of countryside

Set within the main courtyard & just a short distance from the family farmhouse, here at The Orchard Retreat, East Forde Farm - The Cider Barn offers most accommodation on one level, with oak floorboards leading you from the open plan living space to two double bedrooms (one en-suite) & the family bathroom.

Upstairs there is a large bedroom with a double bed, a single bed, a sofa and loo and sink.

The kitchen includes all the mod cons including a dishwasher combined in the oven. There is free Wi-Fi available & a smart television mounted on the wall with free-sat & linen and towels are included.

The Cider Barn is heated by a gas fired boiler (using Calors BioLPG, which is a more sustainable gas, made from waste, residue and sustainable materials and is their first step towards a greener gas) and with radiators in each room, The Cider Barn is lovely and warm during the winter months and when required throughout the rest of the year.

There is also a wood burning stove in the living space and logs are included, so as soon as your basket is empty, please help yourself from the wood store in your private garden where you will find a Weber charcoal BBQ, Indian fire bowl and seating area.

One or two well behaved dogs are welcome at a fee of £25 per dog & please bring their basket.
