Overview

Tucked away in a peaceful setting, The Linhay offers a quiet retreat far away from the crowds yet is within easy reach of some of Torbay and the South Hams’ beaches, towns, villages and attractions.

Tastefully renovated to an exceptional standard, The Linhay is a spacious, contemporary and amply equipped holiday where all the family can enjoy comfort and relaxation. Set over two floors, the cottage has four upstairs bedrooms including a superb master suite with its own shower room and far-reaching views over the rural landscape. There are two additional bathrooms, one with a free-standing bathtub and one with a double shower on the ground floor off the utility room. The huge ground floor kitchen is framed by views of the countryside and a spacious separate dining room lies alongside the living room where you’ll find a log burner and doors that lead straight out to the raised decked terrace.

Surrounded by nature, there are stunning views on display from every angle, and with plenty of outdoor space on offer, you can kick back and enjoy time together whether dining in the sunshine, lazing on the lawn or soaking the hours away in the bubbling hot tub. One of three luxury cottages on Higher Yalberton Farm, The Linhay is a hidden gem. Exposed trusses and stone walls are just some of the original features that add to the property’s character, with its tasteful furnishings, high-end fittings and enormous interior making it a truly special place for holidays in Devon.

Christmas at The Linhay
5/5

My Family and I spent the Monday to Friday of the Christmas week at The Linhay. What a fantastic place to stay containing everything you need to have a great family stay. There was 6 Adults and my 2 year old Granddaughter, plenty of room and facilities to create a memorable stay. Jennie and Kevin were perfect hosts, greeting us on arrival and ensuring that we settled in and also that they were there if we needed anything. The Linhay was perfect, a lovely setting with everything you need to have a great stay. We had a great Christmas and will look to book again.
