Accommodation

Owl's Barn sleeps 4/6 people it has two bedrooms, one of which has a double bed and ensuite shower room. The second bedroom has a double bed and two bunk beds. There is also a house bathroom with shower.

There is a patio and garden area. This is not fenced off, so although we welcome dogs (by prior arrangment), it is not possible to allow them to roam outside. Just down the road there is a wonderful community area, with spectacular views and just as importantly a dog poop bin!

As well as TV we have DVD, CD, and WiFi. The Log Burner makes it especially cosy for Winter Breaks (Logs can be bought from the Post office in the village). This is a no smoking property.

To make the most our our lovely views the layout of our Barn is upside down so the living area is upstairs and open plan split level which means the accommodation is not suitable for toddlers.

Local Attractions

As well as being surrounded by beautiful beaches, Strete is 15 minutes drive from Dartmouth, home of the Royal Britannia Naval College. A vibrant working port, full of history and interesting places to visit as well as having a great selection of restaurants, bars and cafes.

What Our Visitors Say

  • This cottage was excellently positioned for South West coastal path and beaches. It was well appointed and exceptionally clean. It leant itself to cosy living coupled with stunning seaviews. Loved the split level lounge and kitchen diner which allowed us to cook and still be able to remain chatting with our friends. Excellent.
