Pretty, 2-bedroom barn conversion with hot tub close to North Devon beaches

The beautiful 2-bedroom Springfield Linney is a wonderful barn conversion set up to comfortably accommodate up to four. The pet and family friendly holiday cottage located just a short drive from North Devon's awarding winning beaches has its own private hot tub and boasts some of the most stunning coastal views stretching across the Taw and Torridge Estuaries and taking in everything from Hartland to Crow Point.

Inside the cottage has been tastefully decorated combining charming period character and modern day elegance. The living room is wonderfully cosy in the winter with a handy wood burning stove but in the summer open the floor to ceiling patio door on to the large paved terrace to take advantage of the countryside views and bring the outside into the cottage. Within the kitchen there is a comfy sofa and arm chair, as well as a wall-mounted TV.

Next to the living area is the well-equipped kitchen, which also features a dining table and chairs. Fitted within the kitchen is a fridge/freezer, a dishwasher, an electric cooker with hob and a washing machine.

Springfield Linney has two bright bedrooms, the first of these is a double and located up a few steps from the living area, this bedroom features a standard double bed and benefits from its own en-suite shower room. The second bedroom situated down the hallway from the kitchen is a flexible double/twin with link beds, just let us know when booking if you would like this room to be set up as either a double or a twin. This bedroom enjoys access to the garden and paved terrace. Beside the second the bedroom is the family bathroom, which has a bath with shower overhead, a WC and a wash basin.

A highlight for many guests at this lovely self-catering cottage is the excellent garden, which is mainly laid to lawn but also features a large paved terrace area complete with outside lighting, garden furniture and BBQ, a private hot tub and breathtaking views of the local countryside and the North Devon coastline.

Springfield Linney is ideally located for exploring North Devon with Exmoor and the gorgeous beaches at Woolacombe, Croyde and Saunton all within easy reach. There are also a good selection of towns and villages, as well as attractions for all the family just a short drive from the cottage.

One dog is welcome at Springfield Linney. There is an additional charge of £50 per dog per booking. Please notify us at time of booking. Payment must be made prior to arrival.

Great family holiday
We had a great stay at Spingfield Linney. Weather was mixed so we spent a few evenings at the house and the kids loved the hot tub. The views are incredible and so amazing to wake up to every morning. Perfect size for the 4 of us and was a great location for Braunton and Saunton Sands.

Very relaxing
Beautiful quiet spot and handy for the great beaches in the area. Lovely holiday home for four people. Great living space, well equipped kitchen and comfy beds. Some internal and external steps so need to be able to negotiate these. Helpful hosts who did not intrude and large enclosed gardens and walks from the door if you are bringing a dog. Plenty of places to eat nearby and a large Tesco about four miles away.

Loved It
Peaceful location with beautiful views from the patio across the estuary and out to sea. Comfortable beds, great living space, well equipped kitchen and two bathrooms. Perfect. Lovely pub at Muddiford. Less than two miles pleasant walk along the lanes or a short drive. Richard the owner was very helpful and walks from the door for our dog as well as a large enclosed garden. Thank you

Disappointed
Property needed thorough clean. Not value for money. Very over-looked by neighbouring property. So over-looked, had to keep blinds down all the time. Some windows had no blinds at all. Windows very dirty inside and out. Cobwebs everywhere.

Lovely cottage in a rural location in Devon
This cottage provided us with a lovely stay for a week’s break. It is comfortable and well equipped. Comfy beds, lovely hot tub, fab walks in the area and a well equipped kitchen. Fantastic view from the hot tub, out over the estuary. A thoughtful selection of goodies were left by the owners which was a lovely touch. A couple of minor niggles only: The curtains in the bedrooms did not block all the light, however this did not bother us in winter. Also one of the bedrooms has a moderately loud noise from a water tank and pump housed in the loft space adjacent to the room which is disturbing if someone else runs water or you leave the dishwasher on in the night. Had trouble getting in to the property as the lock seems to have an issue with it, but host was responsive to help us immediately. All in all a great stay and would return.

Lovely cottage with superb views
Had a wonderful week’s stay at this lovely converted barn with superb views across to the sea. We stayed over the Christmas week and the weather was dreadful but the cottage was cosy and very comfortable. It doesn’t mention this in the details, but there is a cafetière and an air fryer. It would be more helpful if there were a few more clothes and trouser hangers in the bedrooms and a second tea towel. Also, some extra food waste bags as only one supplied. Apart from that, everything was great! Regarding the hot tub, the winds were so strong that the lid blew off a couple of times and we managed to secure it with a strap that we found in the garden. We did manage to use the hot tub on one day and it was a real treat.

Modern barn conversion with hot tub and breathtaking views
Springfield Linney is a modern barn conversion on a hill above Barnstaple in beautiful Devon with the most wonderful views. The house has been built a few years ago and everything is in good condition and clean. The hot tub (jacuzzi) outside is a definite plus. Two bedrooms with decent beds and room for some hangers, but not a lot of storage. One bathroom with bath, another with shower. good hot temperature and excellent water pressure. Parking next to the entry of the house, with about 5 steps down. Spingfiled Linney have decent privacy but there is another house adjacent to the holiday home on one side. The other side, with the hot tub and magnificent views, is completely private. The kitchen has all the basic equipment, including a washing machine. We received a basket with cider and the best apple juice we ever tasted. However, a bit more pratical things such as a kitchen towel, sugar, spices and oil would have been appreciated. Did we mention the spectacular views yet?

Well converted farm building
A well converted farm building. Big beds, very comfortable. Could do with storage space for empty cases during the holiday. Prompt response to hot water problems.

Lovely property
Great location, close to Barnstaple but also rural. Easy access to the beaches. Amazing views. Well equipped. We stayed in March and our weather was pretty wet so couldn’t use the outside facilities which would be fabulous on a summer’s day.

Stunning views, beautiful cottage! We will be back!
We had a wonderful stay at Springfield Linney. The views were spectacular. The cottage was very comfortable (two super king beds, one which can be two singles), modern, thoughtfully renovated and well equipped (including travel cot and high chair). We loved the hot tub with sea views! The hosts were very friendly and helpful. There was a lovely garden for enjoying a cup of tea or glass of wine. A great place for two couples (with two bathrooms) or a couple and one or two children. Only 15-20 minutes by car from Saunton Sands and lots of other wonderful beaches and activities. We would love to come back soon. Thank you!

The hot tub was an added bonus to enjoy after a days walking with stunning views and sunsets 🌅 our dog Chester loved the large garden which was enclosed and safe.

Fabulous Accommodation with outstanding views!
Beautiful Barn conversion with simply outstanding views! The accommodation is very well presented with all you will need for your stay! The Kids loved running around the surprisingly spacious garden. The hot tub is perfectly positioned to take in all the stunning scenery and is much welcomed after a day at the beach or after a long walk! There are two outdoor seating areas and with the bi folding doors you can really bring the outside in on a nice sunny day! Everything we wanted to do was within easy reach by car and would recommend, Putsborough Beach and a cycle ride along the Tarka Trail. Even getting lost in Braunton Burrows turned out to be a marvellous memory for us all! The smart TV was great for the kids as we could login in our Netflix account so they could watch a movie. Richard the owner, was a fantastic host and would definitely book again!
