About this property

Small, Select Development Of Holiday Cottages

  • Beautifully converted stone built barn situated on the slopes of an ancient wooded valley within seven acres of well tended grounds. Luxury accommodation at affordable prices. Cottage is given a great deal of care and attention to ensure our guests enjoy their holiday with us. Be welcomed with a Devon Cream tea of freshly made scones, local jams and clotted cream. Walk the short distance to Brownsham and pick up the South West Coast Path, a renowned coastal footpath. Wonderful selection of beaches in the area with secluded coves and spectacular waterfalls. Visit nearby world famous Clovelly with its cobbled streets and donkeys, or the many and varied tropical gardens of Cornwall closeby. No noise or light pollution, a hidden treasure for you to enjoy! All of our cottages are dog friendly.

    Single- storey one bedroom beamed cottage with sun terrace bedecked with masses of flowers all summer and autumn. The cottage has one double bedroom. This cottage is all on one level and full of character with lots of exposed old beams. Large (7 metres long) open plan lounge/dining/kitchen area with a mix of carpet and tiled areas, curtains, and reclining armchairs. Also oak kitchen with ceramic hob cooker, dishwasher, microwave and fridge. Very pretty double bedroom with en-suite and spacious shower and white vanity units.
    Windbury Cottage is a dog friendly cottage.

Beautiful location

This little cottage was perfect for us. It felt remote but was close to the North Coast.

Entspannte Tage in wunderbarer Umgebung

Wir haben drei Wochen in dieser wunderbaren Ferienwohnung verbracht, in der einfach nichts fehlt, wir haben uns rundum wohlgefühlt. Martin, der Manager, war immer ansprechbar, stand mit Rat und Tat zur Seite. Der Küstenwanderweg bietet traumhafte Ausblicke, Hartland Quay Sonnenuntergänge, wie sie nicht schöner sein könnten. RHS Garden Rosemoor, Lundy und viele andere Ziele wollen entdeckt werden, die netten kleinen Städtchen und Dörfer ebenso. Und wer den Atlantik genießen möchte, findet am Sandymouth Beach Gelegenheit zum Bodysurfen, Schwimmen, Träumen.... Jederzeit gerne wieder!

Idyllic piece of paradise

We stayed Monday to Friday at Whitsun and wanted somewhere comfortable to come back to after visiting as much of North Devon as we could. We got all that and more. The cottage was well looked after, clean, comfortable and incredibly peaceful. Martin was very helpful and always had a smile. Everything was in the cottage that you could possibly want and the cream tea, chocolates and fresh flowers were delightful and very thoughtful. We had an amazing break and look forward to returning soon.

fantastic spot for some R&R

Cottage was well equipped, even down to providing wine, chocolates and fixings for a cream tea on arrival. This is a nature lovers paradise with countless birds at the feeder, bird food supplied, deer roaming the garden and a t night skills so clear we saw several planets and even a meteor. A short break but we never wanted to leave.

Excellent cottage; excellent location.

We stayed in Windbury cottage for a week in September and had a great week. We have been renting holiday cottages, mainly in Devon and Cornwall for about 30 years and Yapham Cottages stand out as a great find. From the start with the comprehensive information, booking, planning/tips, to the warm welcome and superb facilities, Martyn seems to have thought of everything. The cottages are in a great location for visiting the area and coastline, either walking or by car, and they are well equipped for simply relaxing, enjoying the gardens, surrounding woods and pond. We would highly recommend a visit!

Great stay

We stayed in the Windbury cottage. We arrived much later than expected but Martin was still very welcoming. Very nice touch with the scones, chocolate, wine, clotted cream, jam, flowers etc. The kitchen is fully stocked with every utensil you can think of. The area is very peaceful and beautiful and extremely well kept, we noticed Martin working very hard to keep the area beautiful. Our kids got into the James Bond DVDs that were provided free of charge while my wife and I read books on our tablets. All in all we could not fault the cottage nor the service. We would definitely stay again.

Home is where the Hartland is...

If you have never visited the Hartland Peninsula in North Devon (which we had not) or you are a regular we can thoroughly recommend Yapham Cottages. There are three lovely cottages (2 Dog Friendly) in a very secluded location. Each cottage remains sufficiently separate to give you the peace and quiet you desire. The cottages are all very clean, spacious and the manager, Martin provides some welcome goodies such as a Devon Cream tea and a bottle of wine and chocolates. The Website is excellent and the booking process very efficient and well communicated. There is an orchard and another meadow for exercising the dog and the local walks and those a little further afield are easily accessed and take your breath away. At night there is no light pollution so the stars on a clear night (and we had a few) are a wonder to behold. I would definitely recommend Yapham and the Hartland area as a place to visit for walkers and in my case golfers as Royal North Devon and Saunton are in easy reach.
