Spacious, luxury, romantic Barn for couples near Exmoor & Coast
If you want to get away from it all, this is the place for you. RyePark House is set on 11 acres and has two one-bedroom cottages and one shepherd's hut. It is an adult-only site.
Travel down our long private drive through farmland to discover this beautiful NEWLY CONVERTED LARGE, LIGHT and spacious one-bedroom barn providing luxury accommodation perfect for those relaxing breaks. The Stables at RyePark House is peaceful and yet just a mile from the local village of Bratton Fleming with its little local shop.
The location is stunning and unique with the feeling of being away from it all. Surrounded by pasture it overlooks an ancient wooded valley with a babbling river, making it a perfect base both for those wishing to just relax and enjoy the barn, its surroundings and beautiful walks from the doorstep and just a short drive for those wanting to explore everything North Devon has to offer from the wild beauty of Exmoor to the beaches of the ‘golden coast’.
Sitting in 11 acres The Stables at RyePark House is completely self-contained. The Old Stables and our other one bedroom cottage, the Barn, property number 6542226, are both part of the old stone farmyard but do not overlook each other and are completely private, The owner’s farmhouse situated close by so you have the reassurance of help should you need anything, privacy is always guaranteed.
The Stables with its mezzanine bedroom with super king bed, exposed beams, vaulted ceiling and stunning wet room bathroom with separate bath and rainfall shower, combines the timeless beauty of the area with all the essentials of modern living. Boasting a wood burning stove (logs provides), FREE Wi-Fi both superfast and unlimited and the luxury of underfloor heating, we aim to make your stay at The Stables as relaxing as possible, everything you need is provided- including, several pantry items , toiletries, all linen (100% Egyptian cotton), soft towels, robes and even slippers.
The large open plan interior includes a fully fitted kitchen with high standard appliances including a dishwasher, microwave, washer/dryer, Neff oven and induction hob, separate dining area, with seating for 2, and a cosy lounge area providing a French Connection sofa and chair, large 43" flat screen internet TV with Freeview Play and chromcast and a stunning wood burning stove perfect for those quiet relaxing nights in (board games are even provided!). Off the lounge on the ground floor is the large wet room bathroom with a walk-in power shower with fantastic rain fall head, double ended deep bath with shower attachment, heated towel rail and underfloor heating.
The extremely spacious bedroom on the mezzanine floor and is calm and peaceful with a super-king bed with luxury mattress and plush bedding all 100% Egyptian cotton giving you that peaceful night’s sleep you’ve been looking for. This room also has a 43" flat screen smart TV with Freeview Play.
Outside on the south facing terrace you will find a table and chairs for alfresco dining and more comfortable rattan furniture, with views over the orchard and woodland a private and relaxing space with a BBQ.
Stay in and just relax in the calm atmosphere and reconnect with nature or take a stroll through our nature reserve or along the riverbank, up into the wood or stop at one of our picnic areas. On your way pause and watch the chickens or have a cuddle with our hand raised, tame sheep! And in the evening curl up on the comfy sofa with a good book or watch a film, followed by a peaceful soak in the bath. Or sit on the terrace and as Exmoor National Park is an International Dark Sky Reserve and home to some of the darkest skies in the country wrap yourself up in a blanket and gaze up at the stars, really special and quite spectacular.
Go on treat your self to some quality time for you - you deserve it.

About the host
Hosted by Maria McCarthy

We moved here in 2015 from Kent with our teenage kids - to get away from it all! We believe we have found a little piece of paradise and would love you to share it with us. The moment we drove down the drive we were sold. We have chickens, sheep, 2 cats and 2 dogs but are in the process of trying to develop a smallholding so more animals to come!
Why they chose this property
They say location, location, location - and that is what you have here. A beautiful setting, rural but not remote and only a short drive from all the sites, beaches, coast line, Exmoor, the towns etc. We are as they say right in the middle of everything. In addition to that the setting is beautiful, The Stables forms part of the old farmyard with the farmhouse situated behind our other one bedroom holiday let The Barn, so staying in is just as great as going out.
What makes this property unique
Not only is the location fantastic and the views stunning but Exmoor National Park is home to some of the darkest skies in the country and is designated as an international Dark sky reserve, the first in Europe, making this area a great place to gaze at the stars special and quite spectacular.
