Set within around 47 acres of a beautiful mix of farmland and ancient woodland, the setting is wonderfully unspoilt, with far-reaching views, a deep sense of privacy and a network of footpaths that lead directly from the property onto the moors and towards the coast.At the heart of the estate sits a detached period farmhouse, incorporating a self-contained annexe—ideal for multi-generational living, independent guest accommodation, or potential additional income (subject to any consents and licensing).The farmhouse offers versatile accommodation of approximately three to four bedrooms overall, making it equally suited to family life, a lifestyle change, or a home-and-income arrangement.A major highlight is the established and highly regarded holiday letting enterprise, operated successfully for many years. The complex includes three charming four-star self-catering cottages—Bramley Bottom and Mole Cottage (each sleeping six), together with a Mill Cottage (sleeping four)—created from traditional stone buildings including a Victorian stone barn and a watermill.*The holiday cottages have holiday restrictions and can't be used for residential use*From an operator’s perspective, the guest experience is strengthened by the quality of shared amenities on offer. There is a games barn (ideal for rainy days and multi-generational groups), a safe play field with children’s equipment, and a deliberately quiet courtyard environment—features that consistently broaden appeal and support strong repeat custom.

Alongside a double and two twin bedrooms, it benefits from a bathroom with over bath shower and an en-suite shower room —an attractive feature for guests booking as two families or mixed generations.Externally, the wider setting and shared outdoor space is a real draw, with guests enjoying the courtyard, play areas, fenced orchard for dog exercise and a relaxed farm environment. Third-party marketing also highlights the cottage’s sense of character—vaulted ceilings, original beams and whitewashed walls—and an open-plan living arrangement with doors opening out to the garden.Mill Cottage (sleeps 4)Mill Cottage provides a slightly smaller option within the complex, sleeping four—ideal for couples, smaller families, or guests seeking a quieter bolt-hole while still benefitting from all of the on-site facilities. The cottage offers a double bedroom and twin bedroom, a shower room, a welcoming living area with wood burner, and a kitchen arrangement with a breakfast bar together with a cooker, dishwasher, and full-height fridge/freezer.The setting—approached via the private lane and surrounded by woodland, pasture and birdsong—strongly supports the “escape” factor, and the wider 47-acre valley backdrop is frequently referenced as a key part of the guest experience.The Business OpportunityThis is a superb lifestyle business with a successful holiday cottage complex currently operating seasonally (March to October), producing an excellent turnover. There is clear potential to extend the season, increase income through broader year-round trading and, subject to any necessary consents, explore further letting options including the annexe and/or future barn development. Accounts will be made available to genuinely interested parties after inspection.

This ‘L’ shaped room with the kitchen to one end allows for zoned living areas, as here, with sofas and chair in the gable end, optimising the view and natural light, plus an eating area with ample room for a table and chairs.

There is a contemporary shower room and two further bedrooms overlooking the front, one of which is understood to have been consecrated as a small chapel by the Bishop of Wells in 1710 as outlined in the records of the Church of Exbourne.Before heading down the second set of stairs, you come to the galleried library/ music room and study formed from the extension. It is an extraordinary space, full of light with views over the gardens and down to the river. In former years this was all used as a main bedroom with ensuite, but this works very well for our current client as a quiet, reflective space, yet still connected to the family room downstairs via the gallery.DAIRY BARNThis former dairy provides for open plan living downstairs, with wood flooring, a modern log burner at the raised sitting room end and at the other end a well appointed kitchen with bistro bar makes a sociable casual entertaining area.

The other is significantly larger, currently set up with both bunks and a double bed and has its own ensuite bathroom. There is parking outside and the adjacent former stables provide storage.DANS BARNFor someone who loves the use of wood and exposed beams and peg frames and open plan living, this serves it up in bucketfuls. Downstairs there is a modern shower room, freestanding kitchen, space for a table and chairs and space for sofas and chairs to relax and admire the outside, but also to admire the magnificent work that has gone into creating this building.The first floor is mezzanine living, again open plan with two sleeping areas bisected by the stairs and gallery.There is parking outside, as well as decking overlooking the orchards to the woodland beyond.COB BARNThis sits beside the Dairy Barn and has cart doors on either side, wonderful timber trusses and further external storage.A more modern agricultural barn offers tremendous scope for a number of uses, previously having loose boxes. Doors are found at either end and power and light are connected.A manège sits adjacent to the barn. It is currently used as a children’s play area.Opposite, a small track leads to 4 acres of level paddocks, once used for grazing horses and currently for grazing sheep.FISHINGBeer Farm owns the double bank fishing rights on the River Okement, as far as Monkokehampton Weir. It contains a series of pools, attracting salmon, sea trout and wild brown trout.GARDENS and GROUNDSWandering through these is almost like being in your own private parklands with large swathes of lawn, mature shrubs, plants, trees, hedgerows, rockery, pond, pasture and orchard, all with the sound of the River Okement running along one side. Double bank fishing rights run for about 500 yards down to Monkokehampton Weir. Everywhere you look, there is a vista to enjoy. The immense terrace that runs around two sides of the house allows for large parties and al fresco entertaining in the warmer months.A slope leads up to the kitchen gardens with over a dozen raised beds, a greenhouse with water, electricity and lighting, a large fruit cage, a 50 ft polytunnel and garden sheds. So for someone looking to grow and eat their own produce and enjoy the good life that growing your own food can provide, this will take a lot of beating.A magnificent 100 year old olive tree with twisted and gnarled trunk leads to a curving 20m long wisteria arbour and strategically at the end is a bench to just sit and listen to nature and the sounds of tumbling water.Between the drive and the river is a productive orchard with beehives.The overall private and natural setting of this particular home cannot be over-emphasised. Any owner will feel privileged to own this little part of Devonian tranquillity.SERVICESMains water, electricity, oil fired heating to the main house and to Dairy Barn. Electric heating to Dans Barn.
