The private gardens feature not just restful lawns and al fresco dining terraces but a productive vegetable garden, orchard, and raised beds ensuring seasonal bounty, while a hidden summerhouse offers the perfect retreat for a good book or a quiet afternoon with a glass of wine. Birds, butterflies, and the occasional deer are frequent visitors and at dusk, the light settles across the land.
Location Tucked away in the gentle countryside just outside the village of Buckland Brewer, Orleigh Court enjoys a perfect blend of seclusion and convenience. The community here is friendly and well-connected, with a popular local pub, primary school and village shop.
The dramatic coastline of North Devon lies just a short drive away, with the golden beaches of Westward Ho!, Instow and Saunton within easy reach. The historic market town of Bideford is nearby for daily essentials, while Barnstaple provides wider amenities and a direct rail link to Exeter and beyond.
For those travelling further afield, the A361 North Devon Link Road offers access to the M5, and Exeter Airport or even Bristol are easily reached — making this tranquil retreat surprisingly well connected.
This is a place to slow down, breathe deeply, and reconnect — with nature, with family, and with the steady, grounding rhythm of the countryside.
