Easter family trip
Unfortunately our stay was tarnished as the pool was not up and running as it had been stated in the description (states open April). We booked this property as specifically had a pool as the weather can be changeable. After speaking to the owner, they thought it would be up and running in a few days but unfortunately it was not, we were told due to the weather the pool could not get up to temperature. The owner offered to give us a solution but this never materialised which is very disappointing. The location is perfect for exploring the area, very good friendly but do not book if you are booking specifically for a use of a pool. We could have stayed at cheaper accommodation in the same area that did not state there was a pool.

Peace and quiet
We needed some help finding the place , in the end the owner came and found us and guided us to the property, the Satnav got us lost. The owner for personal reasons was not able to stay around but left us in the capable hands of Paul who was very helpful on the few occasions that we needed advice or help. The property was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. The TV and WIFI both worked well. The property had 35 acres of land to explore consisting of wooded and grassland areas although those with mobility problems would find the terrain difficult. Although the car can be bought to the properties for loading and unloading the climb to the carpark is up steps and is quite steep. The games room and swimming pool looked good although not our thing. The friendly sheep were fun and came readily when the food bag was shook.. This was a great place to stay and we would recommend it to anyone.

Perfect Little Cottage
This perfect little cottage was definitely home from home. Had everything we needed. Beautiful walks around the farm. Perfect location for lots of lovely days out. Beautiful part of the country. Will definitely be back. A big thank you to Paul who kindly removed a tick from our dog. 😁

A great base for exploring this part of North Devon
The property had everything we could have needed for a week in North Devon. Our two boys loved the pool and games room, and we loved the glorious countryside and easy access to the coastline of North Devon.
