Surrounded by the spectacular countryside of the Blackdown Hills AONB in Devon, Big Thatch sleeps 12 guests, with room for 2 more children aged 12 years and under at no extra charge. Set back off a meandering lane in secluded grounds, this is an idyllic backdrop to family holidays in the country, with plenty to keep all ages amused. There’s a year round BBQ lodge, games room with pool table and outdoor table tennis, as well as garden games and a paddling pool for the summer.

The accommodation at Big Thatch comprises 2 separate properties linked by a courtyard; the centuries old thatched house sleeps 8 in 4 bedrooms and the single storey annexe sleeps 4 in 2 bedrooms. The gardens are a huge feature of this beautiful property, part walled, with lawns to play on, a walnut tree, a thatched hideaway and an orchard where the trees are frothy with apple blossom in the spring time. There are walks from the doorstep and welcoming country pubs close by; the M5 and the A30 are within easy reach, and if you really feel the need to go out exploring you’ll find plenty to see and do in the local area.

"⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ We had a lovely stay. The whole family had got together for a wonderful holiday away. The accommodation had everything you could possibly need and more which was very useful especially when we had all come from afar. The surrounding areas were beautiful and there was lots to do for all members of the group that came (2 - 70 yrs old). The weather was very lovely, so the hot tub, BBQ & garden games were used a lot! We had so much fun! "
