About this listing

Description Christie & Co are delighted to bring to market an exclusive holiday retreat set within the picturesque countryside on the Devon and Cornwall border. The business is a luxury rural escape located near the village of Pyworthy, close to Holsworthy, and surrounded by rolling countryside, private woodland and far-reaching rural views. Set within approximately 23 acres of pasture and woodland, the retreat offers guests peace, privacy and tranquillity in a beautiful natural setting, whilst remaining within easy reach of the North Devon and North Cornwall coastlines. The development comprises a collection of high-quality holiday accommodation, including beautifully appointed luxury glamping pods and character holiday cottages, all carefully positioned within the estate's landscaped grounds. The accommodation mix appeals to couples, families and dog owners alike, offering stylish interiors, private outdoor spaces and a premium countryside retreat experience. The business is family owned and managed and has developed an outstanding reputation for quality accommodation, exceptional hospitality and a consistently high guest experience. The business benefits from a loyal customer base, strong levels of repeat visitation and excellent guest reviews, reflecting the quality of the accommodation and the unique setting. Location Set on the Devon and Cornwall border near the village of Pyworthy, the retreat enjoys a peaceful rural setting surrounded by rolling countryside, pastureland and private woodland. The location offers the best of both worlds: seclusion, dark skies and a tranquil countryside environment, alongside easy access to the dramatic coastlines of both Devon and Cornwall. Guests can enjoy private woodland walks, nearby country pubs, scenic walking and cycling routes, and easy access to the popular surfing beaches of Bude, just a short drive away. The area is one of the South West's most desirable holiday destinations, celebrated for its spectacular coastline, picturesque villages and relaxed pace of life. The wider region offers sandy beaches, rugged coastal paths, historic fishing villages and a wealth of outdoor leisure opportunities. Popular destinations including Bude, Clovelly, Tintagel and the North Cornwall coast are all within easy reach, making the business an ideal base from which to explore the surrounding area. Site Information The retreat has benefited from significant investment in recent years and now offers a high-quality collection of holiday accommodation set within approximately 23 acres of attractive pasture and woodland. The site had planning permission for an indoor pool and changing rooms. This has now lapsed but it may be possible to obtain a similar consent. The two fields to the to the east and southeast of the pods offer considerable scope for additional lodge units which could potentially also be extended into the adjoining woodland to create lodges in a naturalistic setting, subject to obtaining the necessary consents. The large field to the east is on a separate title and is currently used for pastureland. This could potentially offer a wide range of alternative leisure uses, including camping, glamping or touring caravans. Many of the buildings have solar panels and the onsite services include a recently installed sewerage treatment plant, mains electricity and mains water. In addition to the houses and holiday accommodation, the property includes a circa 2,000 sq ft barn and a separate reception area with a kitchen and WC, both of which have the potential to be converted into additional holiday rental accommodation, subject to the necessary consents. The Opportunity The business is a countryside holiday retreat set within a rural farm setting. It offers holiday accommodation including 2 renovated cottages and 3 luxury glamping pods. The business enjoys an excellent reputation, strong guest reviews and a loyal base of repeat customers. The substantial landholding presents opportunities for future growth, subject to obtaining the necessary consents, including the potential addition of further holiday accommodation or complementary tourism uses that would enhance the overall guest experience while preserving the unique character of the site. There is also scope to further develop the retreat's leisure and wellness offering through the introduction of additional guest facilities, such as wellness experiences, outdoor recreation amenities, nature-based activities or other premium lifestyle attractions designed to increase occupancy and extend guest stays. Further income growth could be generated through the expansion of ancillary revenue streams, including luxury welcome hampers, celebration packages, private dining experiences, wellness treatments, dog-friendly services and other premium add-ons that align with the retreat's high-end market positioning. With an established operational platform already in place, the business offers an incoming purchaser the opportunity to build upon a highly successful and privately managed business, capitalising on the increasing demand for luxury rural and experiential holiday accommodation in the South West. Staff The business is run by a manager with the assistance of a number of members of part time staff. Trading Information Full financial details can be disclosed to interested parties. Business Rates The property has a Rateable Value of £31,000 (VOA website 2026 List). This is not the amount payable as most buyers would benefit from small business relief.
