Dog friendly Fieldstone Barn, North Tawton, Devon - Sleeps 6

Fieldstone Barn is a lovely barn conversion in North Tawton, Devon, with countryside views, off-road parking, and a garden that invites lingering afternoons in the open air. Suited to families or friends, this well-shaped retreat brings together characterful sleeping spaces, a sociable kitchen/diner, and inviting corners to gather after days spent discovering Devon’s changing landscape.

Arrive and take in the rural setting before stepping inside to find a sitting room made for unhurried evenings, whether that means stretching out with the television on or settling in after supper with the day still fresh in your mind. The kitchen/diner is centred around an AGA with a double electric oven and hob, giving the space a warm, homely feel and making mealtimes part of the day’s pleasure rather than a simple pause between outings.

When night draws in, the bedrooms offer flexible arrangements for different group makeups, including a mezzanine king-size with its own en-suite walk-in shower, a ground-floor king-size, and a ground-floor twin that can be arranged as a super-king-size on request. A bathroom with a freestanding bath adds a lovely finishing touch, ideal for easing into the slower rhythm of a holiday morning.

Outside, the patio and lawn provide room for al fresco drinks, easy conversation, and time with the view. For days out, head to Okehampton to explore Okehampton Castle, browse the Museum of Dartmoor Life, and set out towards the edges of Dartmoor National Park. In Exeter, spend time around Exeter Cathedral, the Royal Albert Memorial Museum, and the historic Quayside.

Alternatively, make your way to Tiverton for Knightshayes Court, Tiverton Castle, and waterside walks beside the Grand Western Canal. However you choose to fill your time, Fieldstone Barn makes a wonderful base for seeing Devon unfold at your own pace. Nearby, North Tawton presents a traditional Devon setting with access to local amenities, while Okehampton invites exploration with its historic castle, scenic walking routes, and gateway position to Dartmoor National Park.

Venture further to Dartmoor itself, where expansive landscapes, tors, and trails provide opportunities for walking and outdoor pursuits.

Whether discovering countryside paths or venturing to nearby towns, Fieldstone Barn offers a welcoming base for your Devon stay.
