Follow a winding path through the trees to this hidden hilltop retreat, where endless views across the valley unfold before you. Take it all in from the sun-soaked deck and the bubbling hot tub, with a soundtrack of birdsong and rustling leaves. Thoughtfully designed for off-grid seclusion with lots of little luxuries, this charming cabin promises pure escapism. Spend slow mornings with a coffee in the hammock, explore winding trails through the woodland, and gather around the fire pit as the sun dips below the horizon. When adventure calls, South Molton's vibrant markets, the wild beauty of Exmoor, and the rugged North Devon coastline are all within easy reach.

Sleeps 2

Cabin in Devon with a hot tub: A hidden treetop hideaway wrapped in 50 acres of woodland with sweeping vistas of rolling green pastures. Sway softly in the hammock, and sink into the hot tub as golden light filters through the trees.
Overview
Step Inside
Nestled in the heart of a woodland, Iris is a seamless blend of rustic charm and modern comfort. Step through the door to an open-plan living space where warm wooden interiors with colourful pops of colour greet you, creating a cosy and inviting feel. Cook up a delicious feast in the perfectly kitted-out kitchen area, complete with a one-ring portable hob, Ninja air fryer, fridge with small icebox, kettle, and toaster. Savour your culinary delights from the bistro table and chairs in the comfort of your cosy hideaway or take them outside for alfresco meals, where sweeping countryside views set the perfect backdrop. After a day of exploring, light the wood burner, turn on the radio, and let your cares drift away.
At one end of this charming cabin, you'll find a sumptuous king-size bed with plush pillows that promise an uninterrupted slumber with windows that look out over the idyllic meadow and beyond. A sleek bathroom sits at the other end of your rural hideaway with a WC, sink, shower and a toasty heated towel rail.
Outdoors
With a deck overlooking breathtaking valley views, Iris promises tranquillity at every turn. Sink into a sun lounger with a holiday read, or slip into the covered hot tub for a blissful soak, perfect in every season.
Just behind your woodland hideaway, a shared meadow offers the perfect picnic spot, where you can kick off your shoes and feel the grass beneath your feet. While away afternoons swaying in the hammock, with the gentle rustle of leaves overhead lulling you into relaxation. As evening settles in, light the barbecue, pour a glass of something special, and watch the sky blush gold, before gathering around the fire pit to bask in the magic of a starlit night.
Explore
If you can tear yourself away from this charming rural retreat, the delights of North Devon await. Take a leisurely ten-minute stroll to the much-loved Castle Inn in George Nympton, perfect for an evening drink, relaxed dinner or hearty breakfast (just be sure to book ahead). For an afternoon of exploring, the vibrant town of South Molton is just a few miles away and is well worth a visit. Its artisan stalls, independent boutiques, and lively pannier market are the ideal places to stock up on local supplies and treats to enjoy back at your hideaway.
Nature lovers will be spoilt for choice - whether it's wandering through the ancient woodlands of Dunkery and Horner Wood in Exmoor National Park, or taking in the dramatic coastlines at Westward Ho! or Woolacombe, this stunning part of Devon offers unforgettable day trips and breathtaking views.
