About this property
4 miles from Colyton, deep in thick, lush hedgerow lanes in the Coly Valley, is the sleepy hamlet of Northleigh, 5 to 7 miles from the lovely coastal villages of Beer, Sidmouth and Branscombe. On the edge of Northleigh, three cottages converted from traditional Devon barns on a small mixed farm raising beef, free range poultry and a few piglets. The Shippen opens from the courtyard into an open plan living space with seating area with cosy wood burning stove, dining area, kitchen and glass door to a patio with table and chairs and wonderful views across fields. On the same level are the two comfortable bedrooms sharing a big family bathroom. This is a lovely peaceful base for relaxing and enjoying country freedom. This property can be booked with The Linney (976057) and Battens (976059) and together they sleep 14.
Beer is a small picturesque fishing village on the south Devon coast near Seaton. The shingle beach is very sheltered, backed by limestone cliffs and was once fertile smuggling territory, plus contraband was hidden in nearby caves, which are now a popular tourist attraction

The welcome pack of a basket of eggs there own apple juice and a jug of milk for a cup of tea /coffee was very welcome . The kitchen area was well equipped. Even if you didn't wait to go out you could sit on the sofa and look out the French window over the rolling countryside.

The property was clean, comfortable with everything we needed. The owners were very friendly and helpful. The only downsides were the very narrow and bendy lanes to reach it. But it is the price to pay for the beautiful area and outlook.
