"We've just returned from a great stay at Westacombe farmhouse."
We were initially hesitant to book, given that there were no reviews at the time, but we're SO glad we did! The property is set in picturesque, peaceful countryside and feels very private. The farmhouse itself is spacious, clean, very well equipped, and full of character and charm. We arrived to homemade brownies, milk and freshly laid eggs which was a really lovely touch. We stayed with another family so there were 4 adults and 4 children and the house was perfectly set up to accommodate us- we had everything we needed. It was especially magical to stay over Easter and to see the sheep and their newborn lambs in the field right next door. The hosts were friendly and easy to contact if needed. Overall, a really fantastic place to stay and we would highly recommend! Thank you so much for having us.

"A meet- in the middle between Worthing and Falmouth - the house was perfect."
We loved the lambs, the sunsets, the farm cat (nick n- named Barley), the view, the beds that felt like sleeping in clouds and the laundry chute, we loved that! The kids had a wonderful time and loved the brownies on walks. We loved biking and climbing rocks too - and learning all about lambing. Thank you !!

"This is lovely cottage."
The owners have done an amazing job refurbishing the cottage to a high spec and it is a spacious and cozy cottage in a very quiet area of Dartmoor. It is great for families with children as the house is stocked with lots of toys, books and kids plates and cutlery. One thing to be mindful is that the steps are quite steep to the bedrooms but this is a minor point. Loved the standalone bath among many features of the property It’s a real gem and for those that want peace and quiet away from the villages etc. it’s ideal.
