About this cottage rental
The Shippen is a cosy but very spacious detached barn conversion in a peaceful rural location near the pretty village of Hartland, and within easy reach of the sea. The coastal scenery is stunning at nearby Hartland Quay, and the South West Coast Path is easily accessible. The cottage is down a private lane away from the main road, within the grounds of a smallholding. This is an ideal area for sea swimmers, surfers, walkers, nature lovers or anyone who just wants have a relaxing break. There are 2 spacious bedrooms, one on the ground floor and one upstairs each with their own bathroom. There is a fifth bed suitable for a child or teenager in the upstairs lobby. There is a large open plan living/dining room with a wood burner, and a conservatory which leads out on to the lawn and patio and has views over fields and through woodland. The wood burner and underfloor heating mean the accommodation is ideal for any time of year. Well behaved dogs are welcome but the garden is not enclosed so may not suit all dogs.

A really great location near beaches , Theme Parks, and Shops. A lovely peaceful location and Penny was the perfect host already thinking of taking the grandchildren back next year

We had a lovely stay, Penny was very welcoming and the house was very well equipped with everything you might need: baking trays, cling film, cheese grater, anything you could think of! The stair gate was useful for our toddler who had a great time, especially feeding the chickens and eating the eggs they had laid! Thank you Penny for everything, I'm sure we will visit again in the future.

My family (including a small pug dog) stayed for a weekend here in April. The house was wonderful. Immaculate throughout and very spacious. It was still somewhat of a chill in the air so to get out of bed onto warm Flagstone with underfloor heating was a real treat. The owners are just nearby and incredibly helpful while at the same time being discreet if you do not wish to engage and focus on your holiday. Highly recommend this place. A real treat.
