Set in the quiet North Devon countryside, The Horse Gin and Oak Stall form two beautiful cottages within Higher Blagrove Farm Cottages, a Grade II listed Devon stone and cob barn. Converted in 2019, each cottage sympathetically combines the original character of the old barn with modern living requirements and feature wood burning stoves, double height living spaces, oak flooring, exposed stonework/beams and underfloor heating. The open-plan style cottages are ideal for couples and families and both properties accept pets. Set within the 4-acre grounds of the main thatched farmhouse, the cottages enjoy south facing views over fields towards Dartmoor and access to a stunning landscaped lake with seating and picnic areas.

Higher Blagrove Farm Cottages are situated just off the B3137 South Molton to Tiverton road. Both towns have a good range of shops, supermarkets, traditional pannier markets and amenities. The village of Witheridge is 3 minutes’ drive away with a 7-day convenience store/post office, pub, cafe and a newsagent. A pizza van serves excellent wood-fired pizzas in the village each Wednesday and a fish and chip van visits on Fridays. The local area is well served with pubs and restaurants.

The Grove Inn, voted North Devon’s Best Pub by CAMRA, in King’s Nympton, is a 12-minute drive away and serves delicious food. The Stag Inn at Rackenford, reputed to be Devon’s oldest pub, is 14 minutes’ away. The Michelin-starred Masons Arms in Knowstone, is 10 minutes’ away on the edge of Exmoor and offers superb cuisine. Barnstaple, 20 miles away, has a theatre, cinema and leisure activities. Places of interest include The Museum of Barnstaple and North Devon, large pannier market and 14th Century St. Queen Anne’s Walk.

Enjoyable Stay
We had a very enjoyable four nights and were sorry that we had to leave. The accommodation was as advertised, very clean and spacious and we had a very warm welcome when we arrived. You definitely need a car and there are some good pubs nearby. We would recommend this accommodation.
