Tucked quietly into the folds of a working farm near the postcard-pretty village of Umberleigh, Little Owl Cottage is a rural hideaway wrapped in a thousand shades of Devon green. Rolling hills unfurl in every direction, birdsong drifts on the breeze, and time seems to slow to a gentler rhythm—yet adventure is never far away, with the wild beauty of both Dartmoor and Exmoor within easy reach, and North Devon’s finest beaches calling from the coast.

Step inside and you’re welcomed by a warm, open-plan living space designed for unhurried living. The well-equipped kitchen invites leisurely breakfasts and home-cooked feasts, while the generous dining table sets the scene for long, laughter-filled evenings. Sink into one of the twin sofas in the lounge, where a charming electric wood-burning stove casts a cosy glow and a Smart TV awaits for film nights after days outdoors.

Upstairs, two beautifully presented bedrooms promise deep, restorative sleep—a comfortable double with a spacious en-suite shower room, and a luxurious king-size room served by a separate bathroom, perfect for indulgent evening soaks.

Outside, the magic truly unfolds. The private garden is a tranquil haven, complete with seating for alfresco dining and a bubbling hot tub that beckons at dusk. As night falls, slip beneath the warm water and gaze up at star-studded skies, the countryside hushed and glowing softly around you.

Beyond the cottage, North Devon reveals its many charms: wander the cobbled streets of Clovelly, stretch out on the golden sands of Saunton or Westward Ho!, or take in the dramatic coastal views from Hartland Point. Explore the beauty of Rosemoor Gardens, cast a line on the River Taw, cycle the scenic Tarka Trail, browse Barnstaple’s shops, or delight the family with days out at The Big Sheep and The Milky Way.

At Little Owl Cottage, countryside calm meets coastal adventure—an idyllic escape where memories are made slowly, luxuriously, and under open skies.
