“The cottage is beautifully comfortable and well placed for exploring all that Dartmoor has to offer.”

The log burner provided a cosy end to an autumn evening and we enjoyed the dark skies from the property across the countryside. Judith and Pete are most welcoming and were on hand to provide helpful advice/information if required. We would not hesitate to recommend this property to friends or family.

“We had a lovely stay at the Furrow.”

It’s a great base with easy access to the A30 so easy to get everywhere. The Furrow is well equipped with comfortable beds and sofas, large soft towels and a lovely bath! Judith and Pete are great friendly hosts. Thank you for a wonderful stay.

Mr Henderson August 2020

“After visiting last year we always said we would return.”

A lovely cottage with all the facilities you need in a perfect location, what's not to like about the Furrow and the hosts Judith and Peter. We knew it would be the ideal and safe getaway to relieve the stress of the current situation. Thank you for another perfect week, best regards Janet & Ian.

“The owners made us feel very welcome without impacting social distancing.”

The cottage was lovely and homely, kitchen equipment was basic but assume this is related to COVID guidelines. Internet was really good, suggest upgrading to some form of TV package as this was limited. I would also suggest updating pictures as we thought a BBQ would be present as there was one in the picture but there wasn’t. Would definitely recommend as we had a lovely stay.

Mr Benson March 2020

Mr Rubbins May 2019

“The barn conversion was excellent, very clean, and comfortable, it is in a good location for the most popular places to visit, nice touch when we arrived, eggs and milk in the fridge and fresh flowers on the side.”

We would definitely recommend it to friends and family, may even return at some point ourselves.

Mr Twaites February 2019

“Our only criticism was we could find no outside furniture.”

It was February but the weather was lovely so could have sat outside.

Mrs Jones September 2018

“Beautiful converted barn which we could not fault.”

Milk eggs and fresh flowers on arrival. Lovely garden to spot various birds on the birdfeeders. Nice and quite location with friendly and helpful owners. Excellent to explore Devon. Thank you David and Judith for letting us arrive a day earlier on short notice.

“The bathroom has a leak; this has been communicated to the owners.”

- Ms Rajagopal-werts, July 2018
Mr Pinder July 2018

“The owner, Mr Peter Bradley, was there to greet us even though we were a little early.”

The welcome was enhanced by milk, tea, coffee and eggs at hand and a lovely vase of flowers. The cottage is 5 star cleanliness and comfort and we all loved it. There is no dog walk at hand but Mr. B allowed us to walk the sheep fields with dog on lead when we were not exploring the wonderful local area. A book of "walks for all ages" was supplied and we made good use of it --plus Fingles Glen which he recommended. The local shop was useful for papers and most things, except wines and a supermarket is in Crediton a few miles away. Lovely facility giving an excellent base to explore Devon.

- Mr Pinder, July 2018
Mrs Wilson July 2018

“Having stayed at the Yoke last year we returned with family and stayed at the Furrow this time.”

Like it’s sister cottage it is extremely well equipped and luxuriously furnished. The cottages are in a beautiful setting and the owners are friendly and helpful. We will definitely return again!

- Mrs Wilson, July 2018
Mr Cowper June 2018

“Very good property in a good location for exploring this area of Devon.”

Only one tiny niggle and that was the absence of a drainer for the sink. There was little room to drain the dishes after they had been washed. As I say, a very small niggle. thanks for a great holiday!

The property

Tucked away on the outskirts of the pretty village of Tedburn St Mary is Great Huish Farm.

Approximately seven miles from the historic city of Exeter, this 40 acre sheep farm is just a short drive away from the north eastern edge of the Dartmoor National Park.

The original ploughman's quarters have been expertly converted from a 16th century long barn where the heavy horses were stabled, to two superb, adjoining holiday homes.

The Furrow, the larger of the two, retains much of the character of the original barn with ancient beams and sloping ceilings.

The living space is bright, airy and open plan, complete with wood burning stove and oak floors and encompasses a stylish kitchen area.

A winding staircase leads to two bedrooms, one of which has glazed doors overlooking the pony field below.

To the side of the property is a lovely secluded patio with garden furniture, this leads to a lawned garden, which is shared with its neighbour, The Yoke.
