Badger's House at Libbear Barton

Tucked away on the beautiful 40-acre Libbear Barton estate in North Devon, Badger’s House is a light-filled, generously sized barn conversion offering space, comfort and charm for up to nine guests (plus cots). Ideal for extended families, two families holidaying together, or group retreats, it combines rural tranquility with easy access to both Dartmoor and the beaches of North Devon and Cornwall.

This former cowshed and dairy has been thoughtfully restored into a warm and welcoming holiday home. Downstairs, the living room centres around a wood-burning stove and opens through French doors to a large enclosed private garden – perfect for dining outdoors, drinks in the sun, or letting the kids burn off energy on the trampoline.

The country-style kitchen is well-equipped for everything from breakfast feasts to family roasts, with a large pine table seating everyone comfortably.
