Dog Furiendly
Sometimes, all you need is to hit pause on life, breathe in the fresh countryside air, and cocoon yourself in nature – with your dog by your side, of course. If you fancy something a little bit out of the ordinary, it’s time to add a dog-friendly treehouse staycation to your bucket list. And we know just the place…
Tucked away in the heart of North Devon lies Sleepy Owl, a design-led retreat where humans and hounds can unwind in serious style. With two luxurious treehouses and a rustic-luxe cowshed to choose from, it’s the paw-fect blend of wild seclusion and creature comforts.
Let’s explore what makes each stay so special.
The Nest Treehouse
Perched within the treetops, Nest Treehouse is a beautiful hand-crafted treehouse, made for couples or small families looking to unplug. With large glass doors that open up to stunning woodland views, it’s the kind of space that invites you to relax and reset.
Inside, you’ll find a super king size bed, stylish furnishings, a modern kitchen and a couples gold roll-top double bath in the bedroom with cinema projector above. Yes, it is as dreamy as it sounds! Outside, a private deck with a BBQ and fire pit means alfresco evenings under the stars are a must. There is a bath tub on the terrace and a hot tub in the courtyard… Perfect for stargazing! Prep pizzas in the wood-fired oven or kick back and relax in the hammock and listen to the birds chirping.
Kids get their very own treehouse within a treehouse for them to explore, complete with bunk beds and colour changing lights.
Hideout Treehouse
Looking for an Instagram worthy stay? Hideout Treehouse is Sleepy Owl’s most unique offering, and it is perfect for couples, families or friends (maximum 2+2).
This boutique treehouse has been injected with style, but doesn’t lack the all important home comforts. Think bunk beds for the kids, a wood-burning stove for cosy evenings, and open-plan living for relaxed, yet sociable stays. It’s ideal for longer escapes where you want to settle in and really slow the pace.
Featuring the first ever treehouse with a moving indoor – outdoor copper bathtub, with steaming outdoor shower above! Enjoy a long soak in the bath sipping a glass of bubbly and spin your TV to catch up with Netflix. Open wide the bifold doors to bring the outdoors in or watch a movie on a cinema projector. Enjoy a drink on your private woodland terrace or a soak in the wood-fired hot tub.
The Cowshed
Prefer to stay closer to the ground without compromising on design or comfort? The Cosy Cowshed is your answer. A former agricultural building turned boutique hideaway, this charming conversion is full of personality – think open plan living with direct access to a huge secure terrace!
It sleeps four comfortably, making it a great choice for small families, couples, or friends looking to retreat into nature with their dog by their side.
Inside, the wood-burner adds a cosy touch for colder months, while the open-plan kitchen and lounge create a home-from-home feel. You will find a snuggly master bedroom with a cinema screen and a super king size bed. Outside, there’s a private terrace with a BBQ, hot tub, day bed and dinning space, with a stunning Devon backdrop. Ideal for switching off with a good book, or romantic evenings with a glass of bubbly.
