North Devon

Meshaw, South Molton -  Fern Tor

Fern Tor is a beautiful home in twelve acres of undeveloped natural grounds, and it's ideal for touring the beaches and moors of the North Devon Coast, as well as Exmoor and mid-Devon. The property offers three twin and double rooms in a high quality guest annex with all rooms en suite with both bath and shower. Lovers of big beds will be delighted to know all the double beds are all larger than normal - 5 feet wide in the ground floor room and 6 feet wide in the first floor double room, which can also be let as a twin room. The house is warm and fully centrally heated in all rooms, with a log fire in the lounge. There is a lot of information available about the area and a large selection of books to read.
The five acres of grassland which surround the property have been awarded a Countryside Stewardship grant: there are many wildflowers, butterflies and wildlife. The remaining seven acres are home to the owners' animals and organic fruit and vegetables. They offer gourmet vegetarian and vegan meals using excellent home-grown organic produce. There's a varied and innovative menu for the evening meal, with non-dairy puddings if you wish, while breakfast offers a large vegetarian or vegan choice. The owner, Jane, is a Cordon Vert cook who is able to cater for special diets: dinner is served at separate tables by candlelight! The owners say: "All the guests who come here rave about the quality of the meals, and Jane is trying new ideas all the time!"
Breakfast is a selection of fresh and cooked fruits, cereals, including delicious home-made granola, porridge, and a full cooked breakfast with succulent tomatoes, flavoursome mushrooms, beans, potatoes, delicious free-range eggs (from the owners' hens), vegan sausages and home-made bread, scrambled tofu, vegan pancakes, and the speciality of the house, a Fern Bocker Breakfast!  
The evening menu uses organic vegetables and the house's own produce wherever possible. It's a fixed menu, with items such as pea soup and olive and spring onion dips with crudities to start; Mediterranean tart and aduki bean pie for mains; and puddings such as banana and mincemeat tart. There are also some sticky puddings and the famous FernBocker Glory, but for guest who prefer to eat more modestly in the evenings, there is a 2 course dinner, if booked in advance. Most of the wonderful organic veggies are from Riverford Farm in Devon.
Guests are welcome to bring wine and beer, though the house offers organic non-alcoholic drinks. Children and pets are welcomed, but read this page first: animals!
