Description

Two bedroom vaulted stone barn rural holiday home surrounded by beautiful Devon countryside - a perfect coastal and rural retreat full of character and charm close to the sea and sandy beaches - sleeps up to 6 . Huge garden. Very peaceful and quiet.

It is part of a large historic traditional stone bank barn and even has stunning distant views to the sea. The Creamery has recently been converted to a high standard and is a stunning property located in a magical setting for you to easily explore the beautiful sandy beaches, hidden rocky coves and the South West coastal path. Some people come just to get away from it all - like a retreat. Great for family holidays, couples, a group of walkers, special occasions and even a honeymoon.

Min 7 day breaks in school holidays - shorter breaks possible at other times.

Accommodation:
The Creamery has an idyllic south facing french-style gravel and grass courtyard, perfect for sunbathing, enjoying a Devon cream tea, or playing boule ( Petanque balls provided). There is access during the day, to a large established garden, as well as having its own private patio/terrace with garden furniture and BBQ. It has a spacious lounge with a stone fireplace and a large vaulted kitchen with dining and sitting area and two en-suite bedrooms with comfortable beds (Bedroom 1, with french doors: king size bed; Bedroom 2, first floor: king size bed and single bed; all beds with comfortable Hypnos mattresses (with quality linen and towels).

There is also a sofa bed in the large living room for a 6th person (where linen and towels are also available for a small extra charge), ideal for an extra child or smaller adult. It is a well equipped holiday home - including Dishwasher, Dryer, Washing Machine, Microwave, Fridge, Freezer and even a Kitchen Aid mixer for those extra scones for a Devon cream tea!

Child Friendly :
A cot, stair gate and high chair can be provided if required.

Parking :
Free easy parking for two cars. If you have a boat or an extra car, that can be parked in the main drive of Wild Goose Barn - please ask owners.

Access:
Guests especially like The Creamery because although tucked away in the countryside and very peaceful it also has relatively easy road access unlike many rural properties in Devon ! Its location makes it perfect to explore in all directions with easy access to a number of beaches so you can do different beaches easily on different days and easily access the local towns and tourist attractions too.

Surrounding Area:
The Creamery is surrounded by beautiful open fields, and rolling Devon countryside in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty (AONB) and is nestled on the edge of the delightful historic Kingston village with its own village pub, the Dolphin Inn with local real ales. A number of stunning local sandy beaches are in walking distance, including Wonwell beach, Aymer Cove, Westcombe beach, and Bigbury on Sea beach and Burgh island. A short car journey takes you to Bigbury on Sea, Mothercombe beach, Thurlestone beach, Bantham beach, Hope Cove, and the North and South Sands beaches in the delightful town of Salcombe. The South West Coastal Path runs close by for any walkers and Dartmoor National Park is easily reachable with its fells just 25 minutes drive away with stunning views, its ten Torrs, waterfalls and rivers for a great day out. Burgh Island (and The hotel of Agatha Christie fame) at Bigbury on Sea is just a 15 minute drive away with its infamous beach tractor and the Pilchard Inn for fresh crab sandwiches. The Journeys End (Ringmore village - see website, 10 mins drive) is an award winning pub with its real ales and terrific food (advised to book a table before you come - the sunday roast has a terrific reputation - it is that good). And for golfers, Bigbury Golf Club is a great course that also does take away food and is just 10 mins away with incredible sea views from the greens. The list of things to do and see are endless.

Water sports:
There are so many opportunities to get out on the water too. Bigbury's sandy beach with Venus cafe and facilities is great for swimming, surfing, kayaking, and paddle boarding. (There is a surf school (Discovery) at Bigbury beach where surfboards, paddleboards and sea kayaks can be hired).
Modbury (10 mins drive) is the local market town with butcher, baker, chemist, Coop, Indian take away and antique shops and more pubs.. Local farm shops in abundance. Kingsbridge ( 15-20 mins drive ) has a cinema, quaint cafes and restaurants and local supermarkets (Tesco and Morrisons). Tesco, Morrisons and Waitrose all deliver.
The local village shop and Post Office in St Ann's Chapel (4 min drive) also stocks most basic things and local food products, inc farm shop quality meat and veg.

Special occasions/honeymooners/anniversary - tailored packages:
The Creamery can also host a perfect peaceful romantic setting for honeymoon couples or for couples who wish to get away from it all and enjoy a special occasion.

Check in Times:

Check in time is from 4.00pm. Check out time is by 10.00am.

Food Deliveries: main supermarkets deliver. Use address - The Creamery, Higher South Langston, Kingston village, Kingsbridge, TQ74ES.

Dog friendly:
We are dog friendly if you wish to bring a trained well behaved dog, no longer a puppy. Most of the beaches and the local pubs are dog friendly too all year round. We can provide a dog bed and bowls if required but please bring your own dog towel and bedding. We simply ask that your pet does not go into the bedrooms or on any furniture. We ask that dogs are exercised in the local lane and surrounding fields and not left unsupervised in the Creamery or the garden. (A Dog is £30 fee).

Please note, smoking is strictly forbidden in this property and the grounds.

We are very happy to offer you tips on local beauty spots and good places to eat and will do all we can to make your stay as pleasurable as possible. We would love to welcome you to our unique fun recently refurbished holiday home that is a converted barn/creamery.

Creamery feels homely

By Emily on 10-Jul-2024

Such a lovely place to stay. We really enjoyed our time here. Very peaceful surroundings and the creamery feels very homely. Lots to do and see in close vicinity. Would definitely stay again.

Spacious and quiet property

By Martin on 04-Jul-2024

The cottage is super quiet and very secluded. The property is very spacious and very well furnished. The hosts are super nice and helpful, as are the two neighbors living on the farm. The landscape and coastline are very beautiful.

One of best equipped kitchens - beautiful garden

By Chris on 15-Jun-2024

We had a fantastic week with our toddler and dog at The Creamery - it is such a beautiful spot. The property is spacious and very comfortable, really well appointed (with one of the best equipped kitchens I’ve ever seen in a self catering place) - it had everything we needed. Simon and Rachel were great hosts, very responsive and welcoming, with some handy local tips that we used. There are walks right out of the door, beautiful and quiet beaches nearby and excellent food options in easy reach. The garden is beautiful and a great place to come back and relax in. We would be back tomorrow if we could!

The Creamery - spotlessly clean - perfect to unwind and relax

By Rick on 08-Jun-2024

We were looking for a quiet, peaceful, restful week away and found the perfect location at The Creamery - Wild Goose Barn. Situated a couple of miles from Wonwell Beach in an idyllic location, the Barn gave us the perfect place to unwind and relax. Our first impression was one of joy at such a wonderful find which didn’t go away. The barn was light and airy and wonderfully homely. Spotlessly clean, every effort had been made to ensure that our stay was as comfortable as possible. Two huge en-suite bedrooms (we only used the one downstairs), with the most comfortable bed, a brilliant power shower, a cosy, relaxing living area and an extensive kitchen area ensured that all our needs were covered. Thanks by the way for the welcome chocolate fudge cake. It was absolutely delicious. The only downside was that our week away went too quickly. We would highly recommend this place to others and would definitely like to stay again. Thanks Simon and Rachel for the perfect week away.

Highly recommended - facilities excellent

By Graham on 01-Jun-2024

We had a lovely time away at the Creamery! The communication was excellent from start to finish, with clear instructions and good communication from the hosts (Simon and Rachel) throughout our visit. We enjoyed the peaceful surroundings, visiting several different locations recommended by the hosts. The facilities were excellent, suitable for our crawling baby (stair gate, hight chair and cot). It was also dog friendly so our pooch felt very at home too. Couldn't recommend the place more highly. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Secluded and quiet - fabulous food in local pubs

By alison on 18-May-2024

The Creamery is a delightful place to stay - comfortable and with everything provided that we needed in the property. The property (sitting alongside the neighbour's old farmhouse) is set on its own a mile or so out of Kingston which means it is secluded and quiet, and the countryside views are lovely. We took our dog so enjoyed plenty of local walks - mainly along lovely coastlines but also through gorgeous local woodland. Also fabulous food in Noss Mayo, Ringmore, and Bantham!
