The Barn at RyePark House is peaceful and yet just a mile from the local village of Bratton Fleming with its small local shop/cafe and post office. RyePark House is surrounded by pasture and overlooks an ancient wooded valley with a babbling river, making it a perfect base both for those wishing to just relax and enjoy the Barn, its surroundings and the beautiful walks from the doorstep and those wanting to explore everything North Devon has to offer from the wild beauty of Exmoor to the beaches of the ‘golden coast’. With exposed beams, vaulted ceiling and stunning stone walls, the barn combines the timeless beauty of the area with all the essentials of modern living. Boasting a private hot tub (at no extra cost) great after a busy day, FREE Wi-Fi both superfast and unlimited and the luxury of underfloor heating.
