Whispering Thatch - Devon

Whispering Thatch is a large group holiday house in Devon that sleeps 14 guests in 6 bedrooms, including an integral ground floor annexe for 2. The location is idyllic, tucked away in the winding lanes on the edge of the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. This former farmhouse is set on a hillside with views over the wide open fields and rolling hills of the Otter Valley. Outside there’s a large garden with a private hot tub and play area, inside there is so much rustic charm, with heaps of character retained in the bumpy old walls, exposed elm timbers and chunky beams, wide window sills, and old flagstones.

This is a gorgeous rural retreat that’s perfect for gatherings of two or three young families, for multigenerational family holidays, refined hen weekends, and reunions with friends. There are walks from the doorstep and just down the road is Honiton with supermarkets, independent shops and places to eat. Within an easy drive you’ll find family attractions to visit, National Trust houses and fun-filled activities for all ages; the beaches of the Jurassic Coast World Heritage site can be reached within 30 minutes. The A30 is just 5 minutes away and the M5 is within easy reach.

NB: Although Whispering Thatch is on the same farm as Meadows Drift and a smaller holiday cottage, it has its own private entrance and is separate to the other properties.
