Set in a wonderful, peaceful part of Devon, close to the sea, The Bulstone is an ideal spot for relaxation. Whether you crave the aroma of a sizzling BBQ, the thrill of petanque, flavours from the herb gardens, or the comfort of deck chairs, The Bulstone has it all. Here, you can step away from the chaos of daily life and immerse yourself in nature.
BBQ
Picture yourself grilling a tasty meal in our outdoor BBQ area. Tender chicken marinated in herbs? Or fresh vegetables sourced from nearby farms, its all possible.
Petanque: A Game for All Ages
Once you’ve indulged in a delicious BBQ, it’s time to embrace the fun with a game of petanque. A beloved tradition in France, this game is simple yet engaging, making it perfect for players of all ages. The Bulstone features a Petanque area where you can join friends or family for a few rounds, maybe a glass of wine too!
The rules are straightforward: players take turns tossing metal balls towards the cochonnet, or target ball, aiming to get as close as possible. Each match brings fun and competition, adding atmosphere to the lazy summer evenings - perfect for making new friends and enjoying the scenery.
Herb Garden: A Touch of Nature
A useful feature at The Bulstone is our small, but delightful herb garden.
What makes this area special is the opportunity it provides for our guests to harvest their own herbs. Imagine seasoning your grilled fish with fresh thyme or adding mint to your refreshing drink, creating dishes that burst with flavour right from the source.
Deck Chairs: Relax and Unwind
After a fun-filled day, retreat to one of The Bulstone’s deck chairs. Placed in the guest garden area, they provide somewhere to put your feet up and relax.
Whether you want to soak up the sun while reading a bestseller or sip a cool drink whilst watching a game of Petanque, this simple pleasure is a key part of what makes The Bulstone a memorable place to stay.
The Bulstone Experience Awaits
Whether planning a family getaway, a romantic retreat, or a solo adventure, The Bulstone is a very special place, come and experience why we love it so much!
An opportunity to create new friendships and lasting memories, in a relaxed environment perfect for creating fresh dishes whilst enjoying the company of others.
