Mole End is one of three beautiful barn conversions at Libbear Barton, a peaceful 40-acre estate in rural North Devon. This warm and welcoming holiday cottage sleeps up to 8 guests (plus cots) in four bedrooms and is perfect for families or two couples holidaying together.
Inside, you’ll find original character features like the stunning oak beam that spans the living room and staircase – a nod to its past life as a straw barn. The open-plan ground floor includes a spacious sitting room centred around an open fire, with two separate zones: one for relaxing in front of the Smart TV, the other ideal as a play area or quiet reading corner.
The separate kitchen is large and well-equipped, with everything you need to cook and dine together in comfort. A generous dining table seats all guests with ease – perfect for long, sociable meals.

The Setting
