Sheepwash Square House
Sheepwash Square House is the big thatched house right on the village square in Sheepwash. It's old, 1600s I think, and Grade II listed. Sleeps up to ten people, maybe twelve if you use the day bed. Six bedrooms, four bathrooms. It's got a 4 Star rating.
The rooms are spacious. The kitchen is well-equipped with a big island and a high vaulted ceiling. The main living room looks out over the square and has a wood burner and a piano. Each bedroom has tea and coffee stuff, a desk, and decent towels and bedding. The stairs are normal for an old house.
Outside, there's a walled garden with seating and a summer house. There's also a separate studio building with some exercise equipment, a big TV, and a few chairs. It's like a mini gym and snug. There's a firepit too. For dogs, there's a lobby by the back door with a dog flap leading to the courtyard, and we leave a couple of beds and leads.
The village shop opens a few days a week. The pub is about 90 yards away, they do food and organise fishing on the River Torridge. For bigger shops, Holsworthy or Hatherleigh are a short drive.
For days out, the coast at Westward Ho! or Bude is about 40 minutes by car. Dartmoor National Park is closer, maybe half an hour south. You can get the ferry to Lundy Island from Bideford, or hire bikes for the Tarka Trail.
In terms of what's here: wood burner, dishwasher, washing machine, WiFi, TV with Netflix and Sky, all bedding and towels included, parking on site. Pets are allowed, up to two.
