    “Had a fantastic stay.”

    The location was peaceful and the accommodation was well equipped with everything you needed. The beds were so comfortable, hard to get out of! We loved our daily visit from the owners’ little dog. Hope to return soon.

The property

Nestled in Devon’s countryside near the village of Blackawton is Semira.

This safari tent benefits from a quirky and stylish interior with an open-plan living space, access to a covered decking with furniture and a gravelled terrace with fire pit, barbecue and picnic bench all making it the perfect setting for families, friends or couples.

Cross the threshold and unwind on the plush sofa after exploring the countryside and watch on as the designated chef whips up a meal in the kitchen equipped with a gas hob, microwave and fridge with ice-box.

Enjoy this at the dining table or if the sun is shining, fire up the barbecue and delight in an alfresco affair at the picnic bench; toast your getaway with a glass of fizz and watch as the sun sets over Devon’s rolling fields.

When sleep calls, get some well-earned rest in either of the double bedrooms, both of which are serviced by a sleek shower room.

Semira lies in the countryside, ideal for those looking to enjoy tranquillity yet close enough to local amenities, stock up on necessities at the local store or head into Blackawton to treat your loved ones to a delicious meal at the George Inn.

The property lies a short drive from Woodlands Family Theme Park home to a variety of indoor and outdoor attractions as well as a farm which showcases meerkats and falcons: a fun day out for the whole family.

Take a scenic drive into the market town of Totnes where you can tour its classical Norman motte and bailey castle, the Totnes Museum and Archives which is set in a restored 16th century home.

There are also a variety of bars and pubs lining the River Dart such as the Steam Packet Inn and the Dartmouth Inn, great for those seeking a more vibrant nightlife.

Spend a sunny day at the coast, choose from Dartmouth with Bayard’s Cove Fort, Dartmouth Castle and Compass Cove beach or Paignton with its beach, pier and famous zoo.

Dartmoor National Park lies nearby and offers a wealth of walking, hiking and cycling opportunities that reward guests with breath-taking views across the countryside.

Explore the wonders of Devon at Semira.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £200.
