The Ultimate North Devon Retreat
Newly Refurbished & Sleeps 2
Welcome to our beautifully restored one-bedroom barn conversion on the outskirts of Ilfracombe. Designed with relaxation in mind, this intimate escape blends rustic charm and all the modern comforts you need for a truly peaceful getaway.
Perched high above the Victorian seaside town of Ilfracombe, and just minutes from the golden sands of Woolacombe, Poppy’s Barn offers a welcoming sanctuary for couples. Nestled in peaceful countryside, this beautiful space combines historic character with a high-end finish perfect for a seamless coastal break. It’s the perfect spot to enjoy fresh sea air and cosy evenings under the stars - a place where memories are made.
What makes Poppy’s Barn special
Historic Charm with Modern Comfort: Exposed traditional stonework meets a sleek, fully equipped kitchen. Enjoy Wi-Fi and comfortable furnishings.
Space to Explore: Wander our grounds or challenge each other to a game of table tennis, football, volleyball, badminton, or swing ball.
The Beach Hut: Borrow our deck chairs, windbreakers and surfboards. Everything you need for a day at the beach is here - no need to pack the car with gear!
Fully Equipped Kitchen: Includes a fridge/freezer, modern oven and hob, and all the cookware you need to prepare romantic dinners or simple seaside suppers.
Outdoor Space: Enjoy a BBQ in the private seating area or grab a deckchair and enjoy the views of rolling fields from the shared 3.5 acres of grounds. Sit and relax on the lawn of the shared courtyard with a good book - perfect for your morning coffee or evening stargazing. We have the most beautiful sunset.
Easy access to beaches & attractions: with Ilfracombe just minutes away, and Woolacombe a short 10-minute drive, you are within easy reach of golden sands, coastal paths, pubs, cafes, restaurants, and farm shops.
Space to Unwind
The heart of the barn is the bright, open-plan living area. It’s a stylish, social space designed for slow mornings and quiet evenings. Whether you're enjoying a lazy brunch at the bistro table or settling into the sofa for a movie on the Smart TV, every inch of this barn is designed to make you feel right at home.
A Peaceful Sanctuary
The bedroom is a tranquil retreat featuring a plush, extremely comfortable, superking bed and high-quality linens, with underfloor heating to ensure a restful night's sleep. Adjacent, you’ll find a modern, newly refurbished ensuite shower room.
Couples love to stay at this barn for its unique blend of peaceful seclusion and romantic coastal adventure. While the large grounds offer plenty of space to breathe, the intimate setting of a one-bedroom barn provides a "blank canvas" for a relaxed, authentic getaway.
Prime North Devon Location
You are perfectly positioned for the best of the coast. Explore the harbour and restaurants of Ilfracombe just minutes away, or take a short 10-minute drive to the golden sands of Woolacombe Beach, world-renowned for its surfing and beauty. Don’t want to take the car? There is a bus stop just 300 yards from the property that services Combe Martin, Woolacombe, Illfracombe, Brauton, and Barnstaple.
The Finer Details
Stress-Free Arrival: Private parking directly on-site for one car.
Starter Essentials: Towels, linen, and kitchen basics are included to help you settle in quickly.
The Welcome Folder: We’ll send you our guide to the best local restaurants, hidden coastal walks, and nearby supermarkets before you arrive so you can plan your perfect trip.
Peaceful Setting: To maintain the tranquil atmosphere, we do not host parties. The barn is part of a small cluster of cottages, making it ideal for a quiet, high-quality getaway.
Pet-Free Peace: To maintain a pristine environment, this is a pet-free home.
