Six luxury cottages in North Devon with indoor heated pool and private gardens
Amenities & Facilities
The property has an indoor swimming pool that is heated, open all year, and includes a pool cover, pool with view, shallow end, and swimming pool toys. Guests can use badminton equipment, table tennis, BBQs, and sun loungers with umbrellas on the terrace. The grounds also offer a children's playground, kids' outdoor play equipment, and a large garden with outdoor furniture.
Accommodation
Each of the six cottages has a private garden, sun terrace, and a fully equipped kitchen; some have working fireplaces and Juliette balconies overlooking the duck pond. The Tythe Barn offers a downstairs double bedroom with wet room for mobility-friendly stays, while Woodlands cottage has a wooden stair gate and single bed in the master suite. Welcome baskets include local fruit cake, biscuits, honey, and fresh milk from a nearby supplier.
Location & Grounds
The Old Rectory Cottages sits in a quiet village 31 km from Lundy Island and 52 km from Exeter International Airport, with Tiverton Castle 33 km away and Westward Ho! 35 km away. The Grove Inn pub, a 3-minute walk, serves Sunday lunch and is popular for large groups. Grounds feature a duck pond with wandering ducks and geese, numerous seating areas, and a tree swing.
Family-Friendly Features
The indoor pool can be booked privately per cottage, so families have the space to themselves with floats and toys provided.

Reviews note the property is especially suitable for families with autistic children because of the calm, spacious grounds and Woodlands' stair gate.
