Tucked away at the top of a quiet lane in a charming Devonshire suburb, Woolbrook Reservoir is a former reservoir that conceals something truly extraordinary behind its smart bricked drive. This exceptional group accommodation in Devon is a celebration home like no other—uniquely designed and breathtakingly beautiful, where luxury meets playfulness in one gloriously spacious package.
With a hint of Alice in Wonderland magic, the long storm-blue entrance hall with its series of mysterious doors sets the stage for drama and intrigue. But unlike the heroine of the story, you won’t need a potion to discover what awaits—simply turn the handle and step into an interior that will leave you speechless. An incredible space framed by sky-high glass wraps around a stunning light-filled atrium that stops you in your tracks. This is where natural beauty and inspired design converge, bathing the space in golden sunlight from dawn through to evening.
This large holiday home in Devon caters brilliantly to every type of guest. Solo seekers will find peaceful retreats like the well-equipped weight-training room and gym, while social butterflies can gather in the sprawling communal spaces—an enormous high-spec kitchen/diner, dedicated games room, and fantastic barbecue area. It’s the kind of group accommodation Devon visitors dream about, where everyone has room to breathe yet can come together effortlessly.
The ground floor entertainment zone is a masterclass in indoor-outdoor living. Three sets of French doors fling wide open to expand the space even further, while up at rooftop level, an established garden beckons with manicured lawns for lounging, winding paths to wander, and a sweeping deck complete with its own bar and wood-fired hot tub. Every detail has been meticulously considered—there’s a table tennis table for competitive fun, and a generous outdoor lounge suite positioned under cover overlooking the magnificent atrium, ensuring the party continues whatever the British weather throws at you.
The location of this exceptional Devon group accommodation strikes the perfect balance between seclusion and accessibility. Positioned to offer both privacy and some of the area’s most spectacular views, you’re less than a mile and a half from the elegant Regency town of Sidmouth—ideal for exploring East Devon’s UNESCO-listed Jurassic coastline. Wander into town for a leisurely lunch at one of the independent cafés, or pack a hamper and head to the beach for a day of sunbathing, swimming, or stand-up paddleboarding on the gentle waves.
Outdoor enthusiasts are spoilt for choice. Scenic river walks meander through the stunning Devon countryside, while the legendary South West Coast Path offers multiple routes showcasing dramatic vistas of the region’s iconic red cliffs and sweeping bays. Whether you’re seasoned hikers or casual strollers, the landscape here is nothing short of magnificent.
