About this property
Hillfarrow Hideaway
Tucked away on the outskirts of Burlescombe near Uffculme in Devon, is this lovely one-bedroom barn conversion, Hillfarrow Hideaway.
A welcoming interior awaits, full of delicate finishing touches, including the old oak breakfast countertop and hand-crafted sliding door which screens the bedroom, make this property a delight for two to stay.
All on one level, enter the open-plan living space and into the small, yet well-equipped kitchenette with a combi oven/microwave, fridge and kettle. Whip up a tasty meal to enjoy on the rear enclosed patio, or around the breakfast bar. As the evening draws in, why not curl up on the plush sofa and select a family favourite from the TV in front of the electric fire. With a stargazing window viewed from the suspended king-size bed, you can marvel at the night sky in this section of the International Dark Skies Reserve.
Situated within the rich heritage of Mid Devon, there is so much to discover including local museums, castles, and historic houses. There are many stunning beaches within 30 minutes drive - North or South! The Jurassic Coastline is within 45 mins drive and for those avid surfers Woolacombe etc. is approximately 30 minutes drive away. For nature enthusiasts you can immerse yourself in the idyllic Blackdown Hills AONB or Culmstock Beacon (AONB), keeping an eye out for the wide variety of wildlife. With scenic viewpoints, country villages and unspoilt natural beauty, Devon’s untouched surroundings are mesmerising.
Although peacefully tucked away, Hillfarrow Hideaway is easy to reach and close by all Devon’s main road arteries being just off junction 27 of the M5. A great central base for those wanting to visit Exeter, Taunton, North Devon, the south coast, Exmoor or even Bath.
Many local attractions are within easy reach which makes for fun filled day trips to: Dunster, Marine Aquarium, Weston Super Mare, Farleigh Castle, Bath, Dartmoor Zoo, Crealy Adventure Park, Exeter Cathedral, Buckfast Abbey plus many more. There is plenty of local food and drink to enjoy, either from the many markets and farm shops, or in the wide variety of cafes, pubs, and restaurants.
Off road parking is available for one vehicle, and one well behaved dog is welcome at this property. For bookings and more information please contact Finest Retreats.

Thoroughly enjoyed our staycation to Devon. The place is so clean and well equipped. Location allowed us to explore mid Devon as well as the north and south to visit the beach (approx an hour away). Very lovely hosts too! Would recommend!

The place what exactly what I expected and perfect for 2 of us.
Everything was very clean and cozy. The only thing we didn't realize was that it was attached to the owners home, that wasn't a problem, just didn't want to be inconsiderate and loud, but other then that it was a perfect getaway and I would recommend anyone stay there!

We have a fantastic week at this lovely, cosy, spotless cottage.
Down a quiet lane, a supremely comfortable bed with a lovely hot shower, this was everything we wanted. The instructions for getting there were spot on - satnav does indeed drop you off on the A38 so the extra instructions given were really helpful. The hosts were really helpful with advice for the area, but also left us to it whilst we’re were there. Had we not done everything we wanted to do in the area over the last 3 years, we’d go back again in a heartbeat!

This place was absolutely perfect for us and our pup.
It was spotless and squeaky clean, not a bit of dust! The Christmas decorations really helped to make the place homely for our new year's break. Nice and easy to find from the instructions, had everything we needed and more. The extra icing on the cake was the MudDaddy which came in hand when going on walks with our dog. I can’t wait to come back!

We really loved our getaway here.
Quite close to some good spots for dog walks and only about 45 mins from the beach. The hosts were super helpful and responsive and solved any issues for us straight away! We will definitely be back to visit.
