By Coolstays: American Airstream at Dittisham Hideaway, Devon

Book with coolstays

Description

Stay in an iconic American Airstream from the 50s set in the beautiful countryside of Devon with an outdoor wood-fired spa bath offering a romantic escape, lovingly restored to provide luxury accommodation for two with a whole host of modern comforts, including underfloor heating.

You’ll find plenty of retro-style inside but the features have been brought right up to date with an induction hob, a power shower and there’s even space for a dishwasher.

Outside, there’s a private space perfectly equipped for sunny days outdoors with a large deck, an oak Japanese wood-fired spa bath, a barbecue and a double hammock.

Ideally located for exploring Devon and Dartmoor with the coast and the National Park both easily accessible.

The Airstream truly is an American icon and this 1956 ‘Sovereign of the Road’ model is a beautiful example. Instantly recognisable from the highly polished and riveted chrome exterior, this particular caravan attended the 1961 Omaha, Nebraska meetup of Wally Byam’s Caravanners’ Club, the founder of Airstream trailers.

It has now been relocated to a peaceful corner of Dartmoor, surrounded by woodland and with views out over the rolling hills. With these spectacular surroundings and an outdoor wood-fired spa bath, this makes for a relaxing and romantic escape.

The Airstream comfortably accommodates two people and the caravan has been beautifully restored, preserving the retro feel of the original vehicle but adding luxurious features such as underfloor heating and a power shower. The interior feels bright and spacious thanks to big windows and the white walls and ceiling. There’s also a comfy sofa at one end of the caravan where you can kick back and relax after a busy day exploring.

This cosy bedroom features a luxurious double bed, complete with Egyptian Cotton bed linen helping you get a great night’s sleep.

You’ll also find fluffy towels waiting for you, some storage space for clothes and a hairdryer. The generous bathroom even features a power shower.

There’s a fully equipped kitchen with everything from an induction hob and a combination oven to a dishwasher. There’s also a barbecue outside so you can sit out on the large deck and soak up the outdoors while something sizzles away on the grill.

As well as a dining table and chairs, you’ll find sun loungers, a double hammock, outdoor chess, table football and a luxurious oak Japanese wood-fired spa bath in your private outdoor space.

The Airstream is ideally located for exploring the beautiful and varied countryside of Devon. Go for a stroll along the River Dart, perhaps taking a picnic along.

Head down to the coast and spend a lazy afternoon by the seaside at one of the local beaches along the South Hams. Visit the picturesque Bayard’s Cove or Dartmouth Castle, perched majestically above the mouth of the river. There’s also plenty to do in Dartmoor National Park, whether you’d prefer to explore by foot, on horseback or even go for a dip in one of the river pools.
