holiday home with games room in devon

 The cellar games room, timeless character, endless fun.

One of the most unexpected and much loved features of The Elms lies beneath the house itself. This impressive original cellar, once an essential part of daily life in a Georgian home, has been thoughtfully transformed into a space where memories are now made rather than provisions stored.

Historically, cellars like this played a vital role, keeping food fresh before refrigeration, storing wine, housing coal, and even serving as working areas for laundry or domestic staff. Today, this character filled space has been given a new purpose, while proudly retaining its historic charm.

With its beautiful stone flooring and atmospheric setting, the cellar is now a 

well equipped games room, offering hours of entertainment for our self-catering guests, whatever the weather outside. It’s a place where laughter echoes, friendly rivalries are born, and everyone forgets the time.

Here, you’ll find a retro games machine loaded with hundreds of games, alongside a pool table, table tennis and table football. It’s the perfect space for family-friendly competitions, teenage tournaments, or adults reliving their childhood favourites while the younger generation looks on in delight.

This games room is particularly popular with older children, teenagers and adults, offering a dedicated space where energy can be burned off, friendships strengthened and evenings filled with shared fun. For families and groups staying together, it’s often where the most laughter happens long after dinner has finished upstairs.

At The Elms, we believe the best holidays balance relaxation with connection. 

The cellar games room adds that extra layer of enjoyment, ensuring your group holiday in Devon is memorable in every season.
