“Pet friendly cottage”

We have stayed here 3 times and have had amazing holidays each time. This is a well stocked cottage and the hosts are very friendly and accommodating.

“The cottage was spotless and very comfortable and catered for your every need in every way.”

Elaine the owner was the perfect host she was so friendly and nothing was too much trouble for her,the cottage is definitely a credit to her and her husband.
Mr Brittain September 2019

“The garden is not as big as the photos show .”

there are 6 steep steps up to where the table and chairs are on a very small grassed section.
Mrs Byrne July 2019

“The Owls nest is a great little cottage.”

When I saw it advertised on the internet i thought that's just what I need to get away from the hustle & bustle, just to take it easy and relax, but not too far from the beach or the shops. Elaine was there to meet us on our arrival. She is such a lovely caring and helpful lady, nothing was too much trouble for her. Then when we get inside WOW,lovely kitchen, real comfortable sitting area.Nice bathroom with bath and shower. 2 double bedrooms. Everything spotlessly clean, just perfect. Thankyou so much Elaine & Mike for helping make our stay at The Owls nest so enjoyable. Hope to see you again next year. From Gloria &John

“Great cottage, complete with gorgeous dog Ben!”
Mr Reading May 2019

“What a super week we enjoyed in Owl's Nest cottage at Poadmarsh Farm.”

Elaine and Michael were so kind and welcoming allowing our 15 year old daughter to help bottle feed Hector the lamb and even taking her out to the top fields to meet the other sheep! We were greeted with homemade cake and tea which was lovely after rather a long 'Bank holiday' type journey! There are lots of places to visit within a 45 minute drive and the accommodation is perfect for dog owners. The kitchen is perfectly equipped and there is a private garden (accessed to the left of the front door, not from within the property itself) backing onto fields of sheep and perfect for a BBQ. The beds were comfy and the cottage was super clean with homely touches. We left feeling relaxed and recharged and can't believe we have never explored this little corner of England before now. If you want a lovely 2 bedroomed cottage to do the same, don't hesitate in booking this little gem!

“EXcellent location for what we wanted.”

....and closeby to a major trunk road for Devon was very useful
Mr Burnell April 2019

“Wonderful, simply wonderful.”

Owls nest was one of those diamond cottages where everything seemed to have been thought of. Cosy, comfortable, loads of character and clean. Very child and dog friendly and the owners were so friendly and accommodating. A wonderful stay thank you.
Ms Williams April 2019

Mr Mitchell November 2018

“Elaine & Michael were wonderful and friendly hosts.”

Nothing was too much trouble. The cottage is in a lovely, not too isolated and access to Exmoor and the North Devon coast is easy. We will go back again sometime.
Mr Firth September 2018

“Owl's Nest is a lovely cottage with open plan kitchen/living area & two good sized double bedrooms upstairs.”

The property was comfortable, very clean & had everything we needed for our stay. Elaine, the owner, was very friendly & we loved being welcomed home each evening by Ben the dog! We'd highly recommend staying here.
Mr Penny August 2018

“Had a really relaxing week fantastic location Owls Nest was perfect would love to go back again highly recommend it!”
Mr Whitehouse July 2018

“The cottage is absolutely beautiful, very clean and the layout and space was perfect.”

It’s also set in stunning surroundings which is so peaceful and perfectly located to get to the local amenities and beaches. The owners of the property were such lovely people, so welcoming and helpful. I would recommend this to anyone you certainly won’t regret staying here. We will definitely be going back next year and look forward to seeing Michael and Elaine for a drink in the garden and of course there amazing dog ben who was totally adorable.
Mrs Fisher July 2018

“Owl's Nest is a lovely cottage in a beautiful rural location, offering great views across North Devon and Exmoor.”

The cottage is very well appointed and we wanted for nothing. The garden is secure, secluded and has a barbeque and garden furniture which we enjoyed using during this balmy, unforgettable summer. We had a great week here and Elaine and Michael are lovely hosts and Ben, their working sheepdog, is full of fun and loves to play ball. We hope to come back and savour the Devon life again another day!
Mrs Reid May 2018

“This cottage Is beautiful, Elaine and Michael are lovely hosts nothing's to much trouble and its lovely to wake up to the sound of the sheep and lambs.”

Nice place to recharge your batteries
Mrs Roessner May 2018

“We had such a great time on Podmarsh Farm.”

Elaine was a very nice host, the nighbours in the other House were friendly and the weather was from his best side. Everything was so well equiped, the kitchen, the BBQ outside and the beds were comftable to get a good night sleep. A very nice place to stay! We did great tourings by bike and foot, exploring Devon S. Roessner Germany

Poadmarsh Farm Cottages

South Molton 6 miles. These two detached holiday cottages are situated on the owners’ working sheep farm, on the edge of Exmoor, and close to the market town of South Molton in Devon. Approached along a private lane, the original 18th century barn conversions have been renovated with much care to provide a welcoming and comfortable home from home. Both of these delightful cottages provide a convenient base for families and friends who wish to explore the wonderful Exmoor National Park and North Devon coast. Jack’s Nest is all on one level and may be suitable for less able guests with fabulous views across the farm meadows, providing a quiet setting for a holiday for two within this part of Devon. Owl’s Nest on the other hand is a two-storey cottage sleeping four people. This welcoming cottage is surrounded by green meadows and has far reaching views towards Exmoor, making it a peaceful place to stay. Outside, both cottages have their own enclosed lawned garden and BBQ area. The friendly owners welcome guests to lend a hand on the farm, so why not have a go at bottle feeding the new born lambs in springtime or discover the footpaths that lead from the farm through the lovely landscape providing easy walks from your door. The location is perfect for those who would like to explore the area; with Exmoor just across the valley you can enjoy a variety of landscapes, exhilarating walks, an abundance of wildlife and cosy pubs. The stunning North Devon coastline is just a 30 minute drive and offers rocky coves; sandy beaches and everything in-between; surfing, hiking, rook pooling, crabbing or simply relaxing! A 10-minute drive takes you to the town of South Molton, with its well-known pannier market selling local produce, Quince Honey, a family run working bee farm, Melchior Chocolates and a good selection of independent shops, pubs and cafés. Jack’s Nest and Owl’s Nest provide quality accommodation with a huge welcome in a stunning rural setting.
