The property has a natural water supply from a borehole.. The Old Shippon at Bucknole Farm is a beautiful four-bedroom barn conversion which has been renovated and it is set on a small working farm. Ideal for a family holiday, celebration with friends or a relaxing escape for up to six guests, this impressive holiday home will appeal to all and help you to unwind and recharge your batteries. This rural holiday home retreat can be found amongst lush hedgerow lanes in the Coly Valley, situated between Honiton and the pretty hamlet of Northleigh, with its 13th-century church.

The spacious kitchen is fully equipped and has a dining table which is perfect for bringing everyone together to enjoy a relaxed home-cooked meal. There are two doors opening out from the kitchen onto the patio area at the front of the property and the lawn at the back, ensuring the room is bathed in light. The living room is comfortably furnished with two sofas, an armchair, 32" Smart TV and a wood burner. On a cooler evening, why not curl up on the plump sofas and watch the fire crackle, the perfect antidote to the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Also on the ground floor is a cosy single bedroom and a wet room which has a shower. As you head upstairs to the first floor, guests will be pleasantly surprised to find three further elegant and stylish bedrooms. The first has a kingsize bed and an en-suite shower room, the second has a single bed and the third has a kingsize bed. The family bathroom is fitted with a shower over the bath. There is a lockable storage area opposite the property where bicycles and surfboards can be stored.

The ancient market town of Honiton has a wide selection of shops, railway station and access to the A30 and M5. There are street markets on a Tuesday and Saturday, and regular farmers’ markets. Honiton is noted for its lacemaking and pottery, and an abundance of antique shops line the main street. The nearby historic town of Colyton has picturesque narrow streets and a town square with a range of local shops, pubs and restaurants. Seaton Tramway is also close by and operates narrow gauge heritage trams between Seaton, Colyford and Colyton in East Devon’s glorious Axe Valley. The trams travelling alongside the River Axe estuary pass through two nature reserves, and give an unrivalled view of the abundant wading bird life. Explore the Jurassic Coast, picturesque fishing village of Beer, or the ancient seaside town of Lyme Regis in Dorset, where there are beautiful beaches, excellent restaurants and the historic Cobb and fossil museums. Other stunning coastal towns nearby include Budleigh Salterton, Branscombe, Charmouth and Sidmouth. Beach 8¼ miles. Shop 4¼ miles, pub 4½ miles and restaurant 5⅓ miles.



Children must be supervised on site due to possible safety hazards.

The water is from a spring, well or borehole, and not a mains supply.

Girls weekend

We only had three days away but it was the best 72 jours in such a beautiful cottage in the most peaceful of places. The cottage was amazing and well stocked. So close to lots of different beaches and countryside to enjoy.

Beautiful and spacious home from home

With every possible need catered for. Lovely owners. Remote location and narrow roads may be off putting for some but would definitely stay here again.
