Tucked within the rolling patchwork of South Devon's countryside, Northside is a soulful escape near Bantham . Hidden down winding lanes and framed by sweeping views of valleys and fields, this award winning designed barn conversion invites guests to embrace the art of slow living.
Inside, the space unfolds with effortless warmth. The open-plan living area, bathed in natural light, is the heart of the home - where the furnishings, upcycled pieces, and artisan ceramics create a mood of gentle, lived-in elegance. Curl up by the wood-burning stove with a well-thumbed novel, or gather around the dining table for long, laughter-filled meals as dusk falls beyond the windows. At its centre, the well equipped kitchen is both stylish and functional, with everything needed to prepare delicious meals with local ingredients sourced from nearby farm shops and markets. Whether it's a simple breakfast enjoyed in the sun or a cosy supper shared by candlelight, the space is designed for relaxed, joyful cooking.
Northside sleeps 10 in four beautifully styled bedrooms. The master is a restful cocoon with soft linen, layered textures and views that roll out like a painting. The second bedroom offers equal charm, perfect for friends or family, with the same attention to comfort and design. Sleek, modern bathrooms, one with a deep tub and rain shower invites post-walk indulgence, while thoughtful touches throughout - from local artwork to hand-picked tableware - give the home a rich sense of place.
Step outside, and Northside truly comes into its own. The sunny patio is made for slow mornings and golden-hour lounging, with panoramic views that stretch across the valley. An al fresco dining area invites long lunches under wide open skies, while the barbecue and fire pit provide the perfect ingredients for relaxed evenings, sizzling local produce, and storytelling by starlight. All around, nature hums - a soundtrack of birdsong, rustling leaves, and wind in the trees. A private hot tub beckons for restorative soaks under the stars and the luxury sun loungers beckon that afternoon snooze. The pool table and table tennis provide light-hearted entertainment for sunny afternoons and friendly competition.
For those craving sea air, some of South Devon's finest beaches - Bantham, Thurlestone, and the hidden gem of Wonwell - are just a short drive away. Ideal for seaside rambles, wild swimming or simply sinking your toes into the sand, these coastal spots offer yet another layer of magic to your stay.
Northside is more than a place to stay - it's a pause, a breath, and a beautiful invitation to reconnect with nature, friends and family, and with yourself.
