  • "We had a brilliant stay and will definitely come back again."

    The owners were lovely and very helpful. The only problem I had was navigating the drive front my cottage, as I have a big estate car and it was a little bit tight getting around the corner from where our cottage was.

  • "Generally quite disappointed in the comfort of the accommodation."

    The mattresses were very soft, the pillows were very flat and uncomfortable sleeping experience as a result. Living room was comfortable and homely, but the TV screen was quite poor quality, the TV remote didnt link up with the TV at all, TV took ages to load and to change channel manually took about 5 seconds per channel. Kitchen was also a bit run down and basic. COVID impacted the items that could be provided for cleanliness.

  • "Fantastic location and in a Beautiful setting."

    Lovely little private beach. Beth and the family on hand if needed. Can't fault it. Will definitely return and stay again when next visiting the area. It is better than what you see in the pictures. Thanks again for a wonderful 5 nights.

  • "Everything was lovely."

    It is a great set up and a beautiful location. On this occasion particularly helped by the weather. Due to the fact we had a dog I would have chosen (given the opportunity) one of the cottages with an outdoor space infront to allow her to roam freely. Appreciate this is not possible for all cottages due to space. The only issues I have with the stay is the cost which I believe is totally overpriced and the booking in and out times. I would normally expect to book into a place by about 2.00pm and book out between 10.00 - 11.00am on the day of departure. Considering the cost I was not impressed that we only had 2 nights and one full day in the place.

  • "The cottage was nice , shame about the weather."

    It was furnished lovely. Love all the reclaimed and up cycled furniture. The TV needs to be at least 3 times bigger and there were no sockets in the bedrooms to be bale to plug in any hairdryers or phones etc.

  • "Great location, all cottages and grounds very well kept, ideal for walking, be aware that due to location, phone signal is and wifi is not as good as being in a town, a small price to pay for a relaxing holiday."

  • "Your description includes a washing machine in the property there was not one and no space for one."

    The property and grounds were lovely, great having the wildlife around especially the turkey who added a lot of fun albeit does not appear to like men. The owners were very pleasant and I am sure under different circumstances would have been more available for restaurant recommendations etc. All in all a great holiday and setting.

  • "Beautiful location and a comfy cottage."

    However the freezer was iced up and we couldn't shut the door. A lot of dirt and debris under the tv unit. Roasting dishes greasy. Kitchen backed onto a farm yard which was lovely but it wasn't swept or mucked out for a week attracting excess smell and flies into kitchen. House tired... a lot of cottages are being renovated but not ours. I would return

Widmouth Farm Cottages, Watermouth

Widmouth Farm Cottages is in a unique position on the stunning North Devon Coast, between Ilfracombe and Combe Martin. With spectacular sea views, a private beach and 35 acres of beautiful headland to wander through, this really is a perfect setting for a holiday cottage. The owners, who live on the farm along with their sheep, goats, alpacas, pigs, chickens and ducks, provide a huge welcome to guests who just love to help at animal feeding time, walking their dog along the coast path or just relaxing on the private beach, just 500 yards from the cottages. The beach reveals a large sandy expanse at low tide when you can swim, fish or walk around to Watermouth Harbour and return on the coast path with stunning views across the bay. The cottages are beautifully presented; some have sea views and share the play area, dog exercise field, laundry facilities and picnic area where you could spend hours relaxing with some locally-sourced goodies whilst gazing at the spectacular sea views and glorious sunsets over Samson’s Bay. The cottages are a couple of miles from the unspoilt village of Berrynarbor, with a welcoming pub and village shop. Explore Watermouth Castle, the award-winning Tunnels beach and Combe Martin Wildlife Park, all of which are close to the cottages. Alternatively, visit Ilfracombe, where Damian Hirst's Verity statue rests above the picturesque harbour, and the bustling seafront has many good-quality restaurants and bars, along with small independent shops. If you can tear yourself away from the splendid setting of Widmouth Farm and its private beach, then the three mile long sandy beach at Woolacombe, which holds the England for Excellence Gold Award for best family resort and was voted the Best British Beach in the Mail On Sunday, is a short drive away. This really is a truly stunning location to spend relaxation time with your four-legged friends.

Note: This property has a refundable Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
