Herons Bank is a luxurious and modern holiday house for 14, standing on a hillside just outside the Mid Devon town of Cullompton, with far reaching views across the Culm Valley. The M5 (J27-29) is just a short drive away and the local area is packed with things to see and do. The house has an amazing pool hall with a heated indoor pool and hot tub, and a games room with a full size pool table. The large secure grounds are accessed via coded security gates and have a year round BBQ lodge and a play area.
Cullompton is a historic market town with supermarkets, independent shops, a regular pannier market and a farmer’s market. Go and have a browse around, take your basket and fill it with bountiful produce that’s been made, grown or raised locally. Just a few miles away in Tiverton you can spend a few hours walking or cycling along the Grand Western Canal, or have a leisurely trip on a horse drawn barge followed by cream tea at The Canal Tea Rooms & Garden or a drink on board Ducks Ditty Floating Café Bar. Exeter is only 20 minutes away and what a fantastic city it is! Have a mooch round the RAM Museum, scale dizzy heights at Clip n Climb, go see the glorious Gothic cathedral or have a tour of the medieval Underground Passages.
If you have a thing for history and gorgeous gardens, you’ll love Kia-ora Farm and Gardens, or Killerton House and Knightshayes Court, both National trust owned, with activities, and acres of parkland to stroll in. Take the kids for an exciting day out at Crealy Theme Park & Resort, Wildwood Escot, or spend the day on the beach at Exmouth. Closer to home there’s a whole lot of family fun to be had at The Bear Trail; grab yourselves a falconry experience at Yarak Bird of Prey Centre or let your inner daredevil loose at Land Rover Experience West Country near Honiton. If the great outdoors is calling, explore the Blackdown Hills, head down to the Haldon Forest Park for Go Segway and Go-Ape, or take a day trip to Exmoor National Park and see Watersmeet, Tarr Steps and The Valley of Rocks.
Don’t forget, you’re in the country at Herons Bank so if some proper job homemade pub fare appeals book a table at The Ashill Inn, The Merry Harriers, The Culm Valley Inn, or Keepers Cottage Inn. For something more fancy go to The Pig At Combe, The Holt in Honiton or try The Bakehouse in Cullompton.
See? Heaps to see and do, which is why Herons Bank is a seriously great place to stay for all kinds of large groups. Check availability and book now!
