"Half term week break to help family in Exeter with child care."
Perfect base to relax in the evenings. Managed a long walk along the beach in Exemouth and a train journey to Dawlish between childcare duties. Very much enjoyed watching the birds feeding!

"A beautiful place to stay - thank you."
The kitchen was very well equipped and we had everything we needed for our stay.
The bed was really comfortable and I’ve now even ordered the same bedding to have at home!!! Our little boy slept well in the travel cot provided and it was really helpful to have the stair gate and highchair, too.
The location is so peaceful but we were able to drive out to access lots of great days out.
Would definitely recommend.

"Lovely time all round."
Instantly relaxing as you sit on the balcony watching the amazing variety of birdlife. Owner Bob naturally friendly made us feel at home. One of the best getaways for relaxing we’ve found in a long time I can see why people return to this place.

"The Wood shed was wonderful!"
Perfect for our 3 night stay for a wedding nearby. It would be fab for a week too! The views are beautiful, overlooking fields of barley and rolling hills, with the only sound being birds. So relaxing and calm. The woodshed has everything you need in the kitchen/dining area with a good music system too. Upstairs is relaxing and comfy...and binoculars to see the pigs enjoying life in the far field!! Bedrooms are good and perfect for a family. The whole place was spotless!! Thankyou to Bob for the friendly approach and gifts..wine eggs, milk, tea, coffee!!

"Lovely property in beautiful location."
Very well appointed, clean and comfortable. Host could not have been nicer or more welcoming.
We took our lively cocker spaniel and she was also made very welcome. However, we needed to be careful about taking her out because, although garden was lovely, it was not entirely pet secure.

"WOW, what a great place."
.. The owners (Bob & Izzy) greeted us on arrival and went through everything... Milk and eggs in the fridge waiting for us. The cottage was kitted out with everything you need and quality of utensils / crockery etc... was superb. The whole place was spotless. Lovely, quiet location with a nice pub circa 1 mile away. I would definitely recommend if you are looking for a relaxing and peaceful retreat...

"Lovely and comfortable, well furnished and equipped holiday home - suited us perfectly as a family with 2 teenage boys."
Very peaceful with no passing traffic, so a good retreat at the end of days out. The Woodshed overlooked owners’ garden (which you can use too - benches, washing line, bbq area) and countryside. Easy access with car to East Devon area and more. Friendly owners on hand to help with places to go.

"The woodshed is an amazing place, so peaceful and tranquil with heavenly views across the rolling Devonshire hills and patchwork fields ."
The property is small but incredibly well equipped, very comfortable beds, cosy lounge and all beautifully handcrafted.
The only problem we had seems to be a little misunderstanding with the garden which I was told was dog friendly and fully enclosed, not quite the case if you have a dog with a tendency to squeeze through hedges after rabbits or likes to chase chickens!!
A fabulous place for a couple, not much in the village but Exeter only a few miles away.
Second bedroom very small but probably well suited to younger children.
Local pub was closed when we visited but looked beautiful, and Bob and Issy have put together a fantastic and comprehensive guide to Devon, pubs, beaches, attractions for walkers, children etc.
Absolutely idyllic.

The only sounds are birdsong and clucking chickens in the garden. Our hosts were very kind, helpful and welcoming, leaving us milk, flowers and a bottle of wine. All were much appreciated and our week was was a great,success. We can thoroughly recommend this cottage to get away from it all and relax.

"The Woodshed is a beautiful place."
It overlooks gorgeous countryside and you can go for walks direct from the front door. The balcony is lovely and inside is very clean and cosy. It's hard to believe you're only a few miles from Exeter because it's so peaceful. Pretty garden to sit out in and friendly owners. Loads to do in the area.
