In the heart of Berrynarbor, one of north Devon’s prettiest villages just a mile or so from the sea, stands Bessemer Thatch. Perfect for gathering friends and family, the house is a great blend of character and modern amenities. Each bedroom boasts its own bathroom or shower-room and the house is large enough to allow everyone space to relax or to enjoy each other’s company. Originally three cottages, the house (now with a slate roof!) has been furnished and equipped to a high standard by the friendly Owners, who live in a separate cottage on the other side of the small but pretty enclosed garden. The sitting-room has an ornamental fireplace, comfortable armchairs and a door leading out to the wide stone terrace, a sun-trap year-round and perfect for a drink or barbecue overlooking the beautiful Sterridge Valley. The dining-room will no doubt be the setting of many convivial meals, while the spacious kitchen allows budding chefs room to experiment, although there is also a good pub within walking distance! The first floor, accessed by two staircases, has four pretty, comfortable bedrooms, one of which has a door to a small balcony overlooking the garden (please take care with children). On the second floor is a welcome playroom with table-football (beware of the low beams!), leading to a flexible fifth bedroom which can accommodate a double and single or three single beds. Berrynarbor, not far from the surfing beaches of Woolacombe and Croyde, has a thriving village shop and many wonderful walks, making Bessemer Thatch the ideal base to return to after exploring Exmoor or the beautiful golden coast. Please note that the changeover times are 4pm on arrival and 10am on departure.
