“We had a very enjoyable break.”

The cottage was excellent and we could not have chosen a better place for our holiday.

The cottage was excellent and we could not have chosen a better place for our holiday.

- Mr Hodgkinson, July 2019
“Lovely, cosy cottage.”

Ideally positioned to enjoy North Devon’s gems. Peaceful retreat.

- Mrs Humphries, May 2019
“Immaculate barn conversion, in very quiet lane.”

Nice views of countryside. Owners on hand, but never intrusive. Close to all the North Devon attractions.

- Mr Coles, May 2019
“The cottage was everything we expected it to be, clean, comfortable, cosy and warm, well equipped and could only be improved with the introduction of a dishwasher (although it did not detract from the overall enjoyment of our stay).”

The cottage was in a great location for the north Devon coast and coastal walks. Lovely greeting by the owner and delicious fresh scones, cream and jam on arrival.

- Mr Bennett, April 2019
“The cottage was immaculate, comfortable and very homely.”

Top marks to the owners who were very friendly and respected our holiday, brief chats but no interference. The cream tea on arrival always scores points with us!! We will book Pipistrelle cottage again.

- Rev Brookes, April 2019
“I think some steak knifes would be good !”

! And maybe a knife sharpener for kitchen. As for the cottage it was great we all had a nice break thank you

- Mr Fagg, December 2018
“Immaculate cottage, perfectly located for exploring beautiful North Devon coast and countryside.”

- Mrs Willis, September 2018
“Where to start?”

! The cottage is located in beautiful well maintained grounds and the owners are wonderful. To know they are on site is great however they just left us to it. Their handover is very friendly and the Devon scones were a lovely touch. The cottage has everything we needed and more and was spotlessly clean. Just wish we had been staying longer than we did. Perfect location for us as we were at a wedding at Kentisbury Grange.

- Mr Ayre, August 2018
“Very clean, lovely cottage in a lovely location with lovely people.”

A great start to the week with a cream tea waiting for us on arrival! Everything was as the listing said it would be. Well placed for exploring North Devon. Beach about 15 minutes drive away. Would happily stay there again.

- Mrs Milner, July 2018
“Such a warm welcome from the owner An extremely well appointed kitchen with every possible utensil we could need”

- Rev Moseley, June 2018
“I do not appreciate being bombarded with emails after I have booked a holiday with you.”

I have booked holiday accommodation through West Country Cottages for years and I never had this problem. Felt like 'hard sell' tactics to me and I didn't like it. I do not like the accommodation insurance options - compulsory insurance to safeguard the owners of the property should be included within the overall price of the letting and not applied as an 'add on' cost.

- Mrs Harvey, June 2018
“The cottage was very high quality, spotlessly clean, and with excellent facilities.”

The setting was perfect and our 2 children (aged 2 and 7) made the most of the outdoor space and garden. The location was quiet and peaceful and was a good base from which to access the local attractions. I cannot praise it highly enough and it would be my first choice for accommodation when we head down to North Devon in future.

- Dr Fraser, May 2018
“Owners Jill and Roger were very welcoming and we felt that had there been any problems - which there weren't- they would have been dealt with in a speedy and efficient way.”

We cannot recommend Pipistrelle too highly,

- Mr Cattell, April 2018
“We could not have been made to feel more welcome.”

The cottage was absolutely beautiful and all our needs were catered for with great care including welcome cream tea!

- Mr Coleman, October 2017

This immaculate barn conversion has been beautifully finished throughout.
