WINTER RETREATS

Baby, it's cold outside... Keep things snug at one of these cockle-warming stays

- CHRIS MORLEY

Woolsery, Devon

Experience glorious Devon views from the comfort of a vintage-style bed when you check in at Shop Room No. 4 in Woolsery, near Bideford in north Devon. Decked out in dark wood fittings with a 1940s vibe, the room features a floor-to-ceiling window that looks out over the rooftops to Dartmoor. You can pad around barefoot thanks to underfloor heating, sample goodies from the ample minibar, and take a soak in the roll-top tub or a soothing drench under the rainfall shower. Feeling peckish? There's an award-winning pub and fish and chip shop a few minutes' walk away, plus room service breakfast. The Collective at Woolsery also has cottages and suites available.

Book: A one-night stay for two at Shop Room No. 4 starts at £275; woolsery.com
