Our delightful and spacious open planned gardens offer the perfect haven for family enjoyment, together with privacy, peace and serenity for our couples’ cottages. You may find it hard to leave Red Doors, however, we hope you take the opportunity to explore this beautiful corner of Devon, with its unspoilt southern coastline of pretty villages and smuggler’s coves together with sandy beaches, ideal for children. Exmouth is popular for its long sandy beach and wading in the shallows at low tide exploring the rock pools. Lyme Regis is great for fossil hunting, relaxing on the beach or sea fishing for mackerel. Sidmouth and Seaton provide the traditional seaside retreat, perfect for a stroll along the front with an ice cream or a cream tea at one of the many tea rooms and restaurants.

* Situated near Devon/Somerset border - easy access from London and the Midlands

You can enjoy traditional Devon countryside and far reaching views right from our doorstep or why not try the South West coastal path or explore the wilds of Dartmoor or Exmoor. Fine National Trust houses, gardens and castles, wonderful adventure parks, wildlife parks, farms and steam railways all within easy reach. There are a number of challenging golf courses in the local area or have a try at pony trekking.
However long your stay at Red Doors Farm, we hope you leave feeling relaxed and refreshed and wanting more!
