Four well-behaved pets welcome (with a £25 charge per dog - first dog stays free of charge). Sorry, no smoking. WiFi, fuel, power, bed linen and towels are all included in the price. A travel cot and highchair are also available. Wheelhouse is a charming escape for your next retreat in Devon. Note: There are two steps down into the ground-floor double bedroom.

Note: There are two steps down into the ground-floor double bedroom
Region: Devon, with its quiet country lanes, patchwork of lush green fields and sleepy villages is not to be missed. Stately home lovers will be spoiled and why not finish with a scrumptious Devonshire cream tea?
Town: The picturesque village of West Down is ideally situated amidst the wooded valleys of the beautiful North Devonshire countryside, 5 miles from Ilfracombe. The village is home to a lovely Norman church, a CAMRA recommended 14th Century pub serving real ales and fine wines and a local shop, whilst the surrounding countryside offers many great walking and cycling opportunities. The surfer's paradise of Woolacombe, with its long sandy beach is just 4 miles away and only 5 miles to the North is the coastal resort of Ilfracombe, with its pubs, clubs and great visitor attractions. The enchanting Exmoor National Park, with its rolling hills, wooded valleys, wild deer and pretty villages like Combe Martin, Lynmouth and Simonsbath enchants all who visit, whilst the wildlife and remote natural beauty leading from the high moor down to the sea attracts visitors from far and wide. With Barnstaple also just a short drive away, this fantastic location has plenty to offer all year round!
