Mrs Conybear
October 2020

“We really enjoyed our stay in the cottage but unfortunately due to Covid we could not have the rest of our party join us and therefore not use the cottage to its full capacity.”

The cottage was very well equipped and in a good location especially if you want to chill. We would suggest you would benefit from your own transport as there are not many footpaths for walks in the immediate vicinity. The cottage was spotlessly clean and had everything we needed. If we had to make a suggestion it would be to replace the mattress in the main bedroom as it was uncomfortable and sunken in patches. Overall though a great place to stay

- Mrs Conybear, October 2020

Thank you for the feedback about the mattress, this has now been replaced. - Sykes owner relations
Mrs Rees September 2020

“Very well equipped, spacious cottage with lovely views.”

Pool table enjoyed by all. Would definitely recommend.

- Mrs Rees, September 2020
Mrs Howarth September 2020

“Had a lovely time at the cottage which was really well equipped with everything you could possibly need.”

It is lovely and comfortable. Big enough so you have enough space for everyone. The pool table was a really good idea too. Had absolutely gorgeous weather which is a bonus. Only thing I would prefer is having an enclosed garden so our dog could roam free on her own. But that wouldn't stop us from staying here again.

Mr Middleton September 2019

“Folland House has everything you could wish for, the rooms are lovely and big, kitchen has all the equipment you cld need and the games room was a bonus, its just like home from home.”

It is situated in a lovely rural setting, ideal for walking but still with shops close by!

Mrs Hughes August 2019

“We had a great week at Folland House.”

The owners were great, introduced themselves to us when we arrived and were very prompt to reply if we needed anything. The cottage is well set up and having a pint of milk in the fridge when we arrived was a nice touch. I would recommend this cottage to others and would go back again if we were going to this part of the Devon again

Mr Harding August 2019

“We stayed for a week 9th to 16th August 2019.”

It was a family holiday with 8 adults and 2 Small dogs, and we find that the cottage was more than adequate for all of is, without getting under each others feet. The lounge was very large and was really spacious for us all to meet up and play some of the games provided as well as play pool in the connecting room. The cottage was very clean and well thought out, we had several meals in and found that everything we needed was there, the comments were that it was just like cooking in your own kitchen. The village of North Tawton had excellent take away, spar supermarket and several dog friendly pubs. with many places to visit in the area this complex is an excellent place to stay, and we would go back any time.

“Really enjoyed staying at Folland House it is very spacious and comfortable.”

The owners were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Would definitely like to stay there again.

Mr Smith August 2018

“We all had a wonderful stay in this cottage.”

Located in a beautiful and peaceful rural setting, the cottage was well situated for a relaxing break with our family and dogs. We had enjoyable walks in to North Tawton and If we felt like exploring further, it was within reach by car of a lot of places of interest within Devon, such as Dartmoor and Exmoor, both the North and South Devon coast and towns such as Okehampton. The cottage itself was very spacious and comfortable. It was most enjoyable to cook up a family dinner in the well equipped kitchen and the pool table in the games room was a real hit with everyone. We would definitely consider coming back to this place again.

- Mr Smith, August 2018
Mrs Mayo August 2018

“Very roomy property family enjoyed themselves .”

Not to far from local towns, close to shop and pubs and good walks with the dog.

- Mrs Mayo, August 2018
Mrs Brooking August 2018

“The owners couldn’t have been more helpful, and the accommodation was attractive, comfortable and well-stocked with everything we needed.”

The views were stunning; we were deep in the countryside but with good shops not far away. We would definitely stay there again.

- Mrs Brooking, August 2018
Mr Barr July 2018

“We were welcomed upon arrival by Darren and quickly settled into a very comfortable cottage with ample room for our party of 5 adults, 2 children and 2 dogs.”

The facilities were excellent, especially the kitchen. The location of the cottage meant that there were lots of places to visit within easy reach and the local village was handy for the basics or a takeaway. I would happily return to Folland House.

“Newly refurbished Hidden gem”

This property sits in a cluster of barns and cottages on warden Farm. The estate has recently been purchased by new management, a friendly and welcoming family called the Barwick's. They have been lovingly and carefully upgrading all the properties with new bedding, furniture and kitchen wear. The cottages are all self contained and ours had a very well equipped kitchen, spacious communal areas and comfortable bedrooms. We also had a small amount of outdoor space but there is plenty of communal outdoor areas and the whole estate is dog friendly. Only half an hour from Exeter and 20 minutes from Okehampton, the farm is well located but sits in rural tranquility and is one of the most peaceful places I have been to. Highly recommended for couples and families alike.

Warden Farm Cottages

This group of four beautifully spacious barn conversions rests on the fringes of the lovely North Tawton in Devon. These cottages are graced with warming, characterful features to provide the perfect base for a week of walking, cycling or simply sitting back and relaxing amongst the company of your loved ones. The living areas are roomy and lovingly decorated with cosy seating and TVs to sit and watch at the end of a long day. Rustle up your delicious, hearty meals in the well-appointed kitchens, three of the four cottages boast wonderful range cookers to add real character. The bedrooms in each cottage are finished to an exquisite standard, many with pristine en-suite facilities, offering a comforting place to catch your well-earned rest. Warden Farm showcases the most astonishing views, with the lack of light pollution in the area making star-gazing a fascinating pastime. There are five acres of private meadows surrounding the cottages, where guests can walk their dogs, sit and relax, or watch the abundance of wildlife around the natural ponds; from roe and deer to owls and buzzards. The Taw Valley provides lovely walks along the river banks as well as the Tarka Trail, available to walk or cycle at your leisure whist admiring the divine setting.
