The Coulscott Estate

Coulscott is perfect for the whole family, with so much to see and do. Our private estate has excellent facilities, perfect for your dream family holiday in Devon. Hidden away in our own little valley, we have acres of grounds to explore, with sunken lanes and grassy paths crisscrossed with streams to splash in for the water lovers. Our heated indoor pool, extensive outdoor play areas and games room and soft play will keep boredom well at bay. 

Our Animals and Wildlife

Located in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty on the edge of wild Exmoor we are fortunate to have an abundance of natural wildlife in the area, from eagles to puffins, and wild goats to red deer. Kids and adults alike will also enjoy sharing the space with our resident alpacas, hens, ducks, peacocks, guinea pigs, pygmy goats, pigs and lambs – ensuring there is never a dull moment!

The Coast and Countryside

Our luxury cottages provide easy access to the dramatic North Devon coastline, ranging from the highest cliffs and biggest sand dunes in England, to what is said to be the Best Beach in Britain! Inland the landscape varies from the wild moorland of Exmoor to green rolling hills, spectacular waterfalls, wooded combes and valleys with sheltering villages and quaint harbours. The region’s famous attractions and stunning countryside are also all in easy reach.

A Surfer’s Paradise

North Devon has some of the most consistently fun, surfable waves anywhere in the country. There’s a real array of spots to choose from here in North Devon, with loads of amazing breaks for all skill levels right at your doorstep. With excellent surf schools at each of our sandy beaches you are assured of being up and surfing before you know it! And with hand crafted wooden Barricane Boards available from your cottage, you can also enjoy trying Bellyboarding – the oldest form of surfing from ancient Hawaii & the Polynesian islands. Surfs up! 

Meet the Owner

We moved to Coulscott with our family in early 2021. We relocated from Surrey to this 17-acre pocket of North Devon countryside set in a stunning valley. We share the estate with over 50 (and counting!) furry and feathered friendly residents! We run Coulscott with a great team and we are continually investing in Coulscott and love to hear what our guests like best, what could be improved and what they would love to see. We love the fact that lots of our guests return year-on-year making wonderful memories  – Alice & Luke East
