Lovely homely cottage in a beautifully peaceful location. Great to have both a log fire and a hot tub. We had a wonderful stay and would highly recommend the wine tasting tour. Thank you x
Laura
Highly recommended! Close to everything, beautiful garden, peaceful! Lovely hot tub and cant wait to go back
Miranda
It was a beautiful space and view, calm and tranquil. Hot tub was easy to use, and we had lots of visits from the farm dog and cats. Easy walk into the pub for a meal, and quick drives to the seaside. Very peaceful.
Deborah
A lovely cottage in a beautiful setting. The hot tub is great with lovely views. The location is good for exploring East Devon and west Dorset.
Sally
We loved Wonover! The cottage is lovely with beautiful views and great location. We walked to the local pub - The Hind in Musbury and down to the outside bar at the Lower Bruckland Farm nature reserve. Drove to the coast for walking the coast path, sea swimming and the lovely Masons Arms pub at Branscombe and the Ship Inn at Axmouth. Relaxing in th e hot tub every night and the Castlewood vineyard tour and wine tasting were highlights. We loved Molly the dog, the cats and the nesting swallows!
Karen
We loved our stay at the cottage, set in beautiful countryside on a dairy farm. Very peaceful and a good base to visit the seaside towns and villages. We especially loved the hot tub and would definitely visit again. The owners were very helpful and a lovely couple.
Gillian
A wonderful rustic cottage located on a working farm surrounded by amazing views. The hot tub at sunset is divine. Spacious living area and bedrooms.Ideal base for exploring. Recommended improvement for some kitchen equipment However, we thoroughly enjoyed our week here and found the owners extremely responsive and helpful
Sharon

Jason
The most stunning location which offered tranquility and a rest as we soaked ourselves in the hot tub. We really enjoyed the peace and quiet of our surroundings. There was no noise from the farm and the owners were most helpful and available on the end of the phone when we needed more logs to fuel the tub. The location offered easy access to Seaton and all the local attractions with a fantastic selection of pubs and fish and chip shops etc nearby.
Ilka
Great location with spectacular views. We had a very relaxing week.
Rae
We had a great time staying at this house - beautiful views from the garden, close to lots of busy towns but secluded enough for a quiet break. The hot tub was an added bonus - perfect way to unwind and relax of an evening! The house was a generous size, including the bedrooms. We managed to put our travel cot up in the biggest bedroom and still ha ve plenty of space in the room. Wonderful place! One very small member of our party learned to say 'moo' due to seeing all the cow in the field!
Stacey
We had a great time at Wonover, the cottage was very spacious with beautiful views across the countryside. You could even sea Seaton town and sea from the Vineyard. Waking up to the dairy cows in the field next door. The hot tub was lovely. Great big garden for family fun, we played frisbee, scatch, badminton (our own) and hoopla. BBQ facilities ar e great also. Little visits from the farm jack russell which the children loved. Worth a visit to Lyme Regis and Seaton Tramway whilst there too.
Clara
We loved absolutely everything about our weekend away, so much so we have just rebooked for the 23rd September, of which the family cannot wait for! The cottage was truly beautiful and the ground and views were just as amazing! A well deserved break and technology detox needed from everyday life
Laura
If youre looking for a secluded spot with an amazing hot tub and close to lots of different beaches then this cottage is for you! We had an amazing stay and will hopefully be back next year!
Angie
Wonover on Castlewood farm was a delightful cottage very clean and comfortable and idea location for a long weekend. Very close to the coast and set in a beautiful location with lovely walks around. The owner Rob and Kate couldnt be more helpful and the wine tasting is a definite must as was a dip in the hottub. Thanks for a great weekend, we shall certainly recommend and hopeful be back sometime.
Sophie
We had a wonderful stay here, the cottage is cosy, warm and relaxing with beautiful views. Location great for exploring all the surrounding beautiful places. Would definitely return and recommend
Jen
Lovely rural location, yet incredibly convenient for local coastal towns and villages. Warm, homely feel. Plenty of catering equipment, large kitchen and spacious lounge and dining room. Downstairs toilet and useful utility room. If there was a large group youd need to organise showering as only one shower. The bath does not have a shower over. Wou ld thoroughly recommend.
Toni
Great cottage, larger than expected, with pretty garden and stunning views. Very helpful and welcoming owners. Hot tub was lovely and really takes advantage of the views. Highly recommend.
Liz
