Introduction

Hidden down a meandering track near Dulverton, the southern gateway to Exmoor National Park, this 18th Century hayloft has been lovingly restored into a luxury self-catering farmhouse, superb for family gatherings and grown-up country escapes. Those looking for an equestrian experience with a difference will be spoilt for choice, with plenty of bucolic bridleways and opportunities for galloping across Exmoor on horseback with the wind in your hair, leaving all your troubles far behind… 

Bedrooms and Bathrooms

When twilight falls over Caspian Ranch, hit the hay in one of the sumptuous bedrooms, each dressed in luxurious linens, cushy pillows and stylish sheepskin throws. The master en suite bedroom boasts a king-size bed, separate shower and deep bath tub; the perfect remedy for tired body soaks after blustery country rambles. Adjacent is one of the en suite zip-and-link twin bedrooms complete with walk-in rain shower, WC and shaggy rugs underfoot – ensuring cosiness from head to toe. On the opposite side of the horseshoe shaped barn sits a second twin bedroom and king-size bedroom with en suite shower room.

Outside

Set amid expanses of rolling hills and huge open skies, the east-facing balcony offers views to take your breath away. Spend mornings sipping on fresh steaming coffee and mapping out the day’s adventures on the balcony as you watch the sun rise over the horizon. Adrenaline addicts will not be far from a wide range of outdoor activities including mountain biking, rock climbing and abseiling down craggy rock faces. For those who prefer indoor comforts, nearby Dulverton delivers a relaxed country-town vibe with a variety of independent shops and award-winning eateries to discover. 

For Relaxation

After a day exploring the heather-clad moorland and wild valleys to the west, hang your hat before retiring beside the crackling wood burner, where the flickering flames and underfloor heating will make you feel right at home. Pour a large glass of something warming and unwind in the stylish realms of the open plan kitchen-dining area as dusk begins to settle outside. After-dark escapades don’t get much more romantic than up on Exmoor National Park; the only place in England to be awarded a special protected status for its night sky. Drive up during a meteor shower with blankets and a flask of hot chocolate, and expect to see up to sixty shooting stars an hour!

Practicalities

There is parking for two cars in the opposite barn plus further room on the driveway for additional cars. The property is well-equipped with an electric double oven, Dolche Gusto coffee machine, microwave, washing machine, tumble dryer and dishwasher. The property owners live opposite.
