Photos and Description of this Holsworthy holiday house boat 2 Cabins, salon/settee, boat house, sleeping up to 6 with 3 bathrooms

Blagdon Water consists of 35 acres of rural countryside. The exclusive site contains a 3 acre lake and 15 acres of newly planted woodland. The accommodation facilities, in the form of three house boats are located on the lake in their own private two acre sites. This environmental site is dedicated to providing a natural habitat in which the local wildlife is free to flourish without it having to compete with the needs of modern agriculture. The new woodland has encouraged an influx of new residents in the form of voles and rabbits and the lake now provides a welcome haven for a large array of bird life many of whom are raising their young there. Among recent sittings are barn owls, cuckoos, buzzards, kestrels, ducks, coots, moor hens and dabchicks. One of the great pleasures of staying at Blagdon Water is the sense of space and freedom.

Details for Painted Lady 2 Bedrooms, Sleeps 6, 3 Bathrooms

Painted Lady is a house boat permanently moored to her own exclusive jetty. She is 15m (50ft) in length, custom built along the lines of the traditional narrow boat. The main salon is entered from the jetty, midships, through double doors and down a few oak steps into the galley and dining area. The open plan design and light decor give the boat a spacious and airy feel whilst the two large windows overlooking the lake allow you to be a voyeur to the wildlife around you. The cabins lead off the salon fore and aft. Both offer ensuite facilities and have their own private deck. The adjoining summer house offers additional space and room for dining or just lounging with superb views of the lake.

Blagdon Water is located in the heart of the North Devon countryside, or as it is know locally, Ruby Country. Ruby Country is 'the land between the moors' bordered to the east by Exmoor, the south by Dartmoor and the west by Bodmin moor. Blagdon Water is an excellent base from which to enjoy the local walking and cycling routes, many of which are off road. The Atlantic Highway, approximately 10 miles away, provides easy access to the beaches of Devon and Cornwall.
