  • "Lovely cottage in beautiful location."

    Well off the beaten track with gorgeous views wherever you are. All the amenities and facilities you could reasonably wish for. Cosy and nicely decorated. Unexpected welcoming touches - scrumptious homemade cupcakes - freshly cut flowers - 'proper' bottle of local milk. The woodlands are perfect, and you can explore at your leisure. Trees, wildlife, streams running through. You won't see a soul as it's private land. You'll share the farm with sheep (in the field just opposite the cottage), assorted dogs, and a friendly cat. There's a local pub/restaurant which is a few minutes drive, or a 30 minute walk via the woods if you're feeling energetic. If you took enough provisions you could spend your whole stay on this farm without leaving. If you did venture out further afield there is the beauty of rural and coastal North Devon to explore. Very friendly and helpful hosts. Highly recommended!

    Thank you for your wonderful feedback Property Owner
