Spectacular views through the rolling hills of Horsecombe Valley and on to Batson Creek, Salcombe Estuary and beyond can all be viewed from the private seating area in a secluded corner of a 3.5 acre field.
The cedar shingle clad Treehouse is surrounded by an elevated decking, where you can sit back and relax with a glass of wine, while watching Horsecombe Farm's Rare Breed Dartmoor Ponies. There is an abundance of nature too with buzzards and barn owls to be spotted from the deck. Alternatively stargaze at night and listen to the crickets and look out for the glow worms from your private terrace, while sat by a roaring, crackling fire in the cast iron fire bowl, which can also be used for BBQ's, heating mulled wine in the caldron or treat yourself to toasted marshmallows.
Optional extra - wake up in the morning and winch up the wicker basket, filled with fresh crossiant and pain au chocolat from the local bakery - The Bakehouse Salcombe or The English Breakfast Package, containing locally sourced produce (available on request at a small charge).
Inside you’ll find a beautiful big chunky solid oak double bed; piled high with gorgeous linens, cushions, sumptuous quilt and knitted blanket. The rustic half round wood rail ceiling and beautiful oak walls and floors provide the perfect setting to curl up in the tweedy chairs, next to the electric flame effect wood burning stove which, heats up within a matter of moments. The hand crafted oak table provides the perfect setting to play a board game, cards; or simply just peep through any of the windows at the surroundings.
An en suite shower-room lined with ceramic drift wood tiles, underfloor heating and heated towel rail ensures that you'll be snug, piping hot water, with organic paraben free hair and body wash products. There’s a proper flushing loo and a river rock granite wash-basin that sits on a hand crafted table.
The Treehouse has a bespoke built duck egg blue kitchen, with gorgeous oak worktops and a matching oak kitchen table. Including a fridge-freezer, fan oven with grill, portable induction hob, large white butler sink, Nespresso Coffee machine, seven-bottle wine cooler, Morphy Richards toaster, kettle and utensils. All of the cooking equipment and crockery is state of the art.
If you decide you do want to leave your little paradise, there’s plenty on offer. A 15 minute walk along idyllic country lanes past fragrant hedgerows and thatched cottages brings you to Salcombe town that offers an abundance of fantastic shops, restaurants, cafés and pubs all in the backdrop of some of Devon’s most spectacular coastline and the lovely beaches of the Salcombe estuary.
With panoramic views, and the rustle of the wind in the trees - you’re in for a unique, and amazing, stay.
