Otter's Den at Libbear Barton

Otter’s Den is one of three lovingly restored barn conversions at Libbear Barton, a 40-acre private estate in North Devon. Originally a grain store, this bright and airy holiday home sleeps up to 8 guests (plus cots) and is ideal for families or groups seeking space, comfort, and connection with the countryside.

This unique barn boasts beautiful exposed beams, double-height ceilings, and a spacious open-plan living area designed for relaxed get-togethers. Whether you're cooking in the well-equipped kitchen, enjoying long meals around the dining table, or curling up by the open fire, it’s a space that brings everyone together.

Huge picture windows and French doors flood the space with light and open onto your own enclosed garden with countryside views, a gas BBQ, and outdoor seating – perfect for warm evenings and alfresco dining.
