Based in the grounds of Kentisbury Grange, this single-storey lodge, 7.5 miles from the centre of Ilfracombe, makes a perfect getaway. Boasting a plethora of modern creature comforts, it’s perfect for a group eager to explore North Devon’s beaches and the majesty of Exmoor National Park. A generous lounge and wrap-around decked area are ideal places to relax and beautifully complement the manor’s landscape gardens, which provide a stunning backdrop.

This boutique-style lodge possesses a welcoming ambience thanks to light and airy open-plan living areas that offer multiple aspects of the surrounding area. The lounge is an inviting area, flanked by a dining area which is served by the contemporary kitchen just a few feet away. Guests won’t have to roam far to find the lodge’s two bedrooms, an en-suite king-size bedroom and a twin bedroom, while the Jack and Jill bathroom is accessible via the twin bedroom or from the lounge. Outside, the wrap-around decked area comprises a hot tub and patio area, both perfect for stargazing and alfresco dining.
