Perched on the banks of the River Exe in the quaint Devonshire village of Oakfordbridge near Bampton, The Bark House offers a spacious and inviting retreat for up to 13 guests of all ages. Once a traditional pub, this impressive stone-built property retains its historic charm with exposed beams and stonework, while introducing chic contemporary touches throughout. Step inside to discover a generous living room with plush seating and countryside views, perfect for relaxing after a day of exploring. The large kitchen comes fully equipped for self-catering, while the elegant dining room – with its feature bar and open fire – sets the scene for memorable meals. A dedicated games room provides entertainment for all ages, complete with a pool table, dart board, and toys for younger guests. The accommodation comprises six thoughtfully designed bedrooms: four doubles with en-suite walk-in showers (including a spacious suite with its own kitchenette), a twin, and a single room, alongside an additional family bathroom. Outside, enjoy alfresco dining on the patio, take a stroll through the orchard, or gather around the firepit under the stars. Off-road parking for up to ten cars ensures convenience for larger groups. Ideally located for exploring, The Bark House is just three miles from Bampton, home to a small selection of shops, pubs, and eateries, as well as the Bampton Heritage & Visitor Centre and the Norman castle mound.
