Sleeps 10 dog-friendly space with private hot tubs

'The Roost' is a great solution for bigger groups. Owl Barn and Tree Barn are next door to each other, separated by a small knot garden, and are well away from the other cottages. Book both together to sleep 10 of you in 5 bedrooms (all en suite) plus cots.

The table in Owl Barn will seat 10, and the sitting room in Owl Barn has two 4-seater sofas, an armchair, and two outsize beanbags, meaning there is room for all of you to eat and socialise together. Each barn has a private hot tub. Perfect if you want to be together, but still want your own space. The boys can watch the footie in one cottage, while the girls chill next door with a glass of wine! We are very baby-friendly and provide a baby hamper and oodles of baby kit (free of charge). We are also very dog-friendly (South West Dog-friendly Business of the Year 2017, and they even get their own welcome pack!). There're loads to do in the local area - beaches are only 9 miles away, and we have comprehensive information on our website on things to do, places to go, and great eating and drinking venues. We look forward to welcoming you to Kernock!
