Elaine
Such a beautiful place to stay. So bright and spotlessly clean inside. All mod cons and everything finished to a really high standard. The showers in the bathroom and en suite are to die for!!! A real home from home.
Samuel James
We love this place, this was our 5th year here and we will be returning next year in the bigger cottage with extra family members. We like the location as it makes it easy to explore, we particularly like Saunton beach and Northam Burrows. We love the peace and tranquility of the farm and especially the visits from the farm pets! See you next year x

A perfect holiday cottage, with everything you could possibly need and more. Made even better by great hosts, who made sure we felt at home and were such lovely people! Location was wonderful, kids loved all the goings on each day on the farm and it was close to some lovely beaches and days out!
Susan
Little Fir provides the perfect base from which to explore the Hartland peninsular, North Devon and Cornish coasts. Appointed to a very high standard and extremely well equipped, its open plan living area is spacious whilst also being cosy and very comfortable. Staying in Little Fir enhanced our enjoyment of our holiday greatly, as did the warmth o f welcome from hosts Steve and Janna.
Alison
Exceptional cottage - cosy yet spacious with plenty of storage, well equipped, very clean and very comfortable. Fabulous showers.
Rebecca
Absolutely stunning cottage in a wonderful location. Very remote and quiet and an ideal relaxing break. equally close enough to drive to the beach and surrounding areas. We loved seeing the cows everyday who were super friendly and having visits from the very friendly farm cats and dog. Highly recommended and will definitely come again - we loved e very minute!
Alison
We had a wonderful few days at little fir cottage. Steve and Jana were lovely - the perfect hosts. The cottage was beautiful, clean and well equipped! The area is beautiful and we loved being on a farm our children loved seeing the cows every morning too. We were sad to leave and cant wait to return.
Ruby
We spent a week at Fir Tree Cottage for half term. Such a lovely space, spotlessly clean and well equipped with everything we needed, Steve and Jana were so kind and helpful and nothing seemed too much trouble. Would not hesitate in recommending this cottage and was a great base to explore Devon and Cornwall. It was wonderful seeing feeding time an d the cows mooing was lovely. Our girls really enjoyed watching the cows from their bedroom window. Thank you for a great stay.
Ryan
We had a fantastic stay. The cottage is very modern, clean, and comfortable. Really nice electric showers and a big log burner in the lounge room. The surroundings are fantastic with cows and chickens across the road and some very friendly cats and a dog that will visit you. I would definitely stay again.
Luke
The owners could not be more helpful without ever intruding on our stay, wonderful place to stay in modern but cosy surroundings. The perfect break.
Katy
The cottage is beautifully decorated, super clean and was really cosy when we visited in November. The kitchen is really well equipped and the living room area is very comfy. The hot tub was a lovely bonus.
Claire
The cottage was truly lovely. Very homely and comfortable. We loved the open fire and the hot tub was welcome after some nice north Devon coastal walks. Would highly recommend and look forward to a return trip.
Clare
Beautiful comfortable cottage. Hosts were very accommodating, great location for visiting North Devon.
Andrew
The perfect cottage for couples or families. Spacious and comfy through out . Kitchen is a great size with loads of storage if you wish to eat in. Beds very comfy with excellent Storage. Both bathrooms Spotless ,with easy to use showers that would suit anyone. Downstairs toilet added bonus. Hot tub is lovely especially for stargazing at night Only thing that may put people off is you are on a working farm and you do get an occasional smell of cow muck but for us this added to the charm.
Helen
The cottage was perfect for a quiet weeks holiday yet was close enough to get out and about to places of interest - the coast, historic houses, picturesque villages, shopping.
Hayley
We had such a lovely stay! It was so clean and well equipped. The surprise of the visit from Bailey was lovely, the kids loved seeing him. Great location, central enough to visit places around Devon and into Cornwall.
James
We would recommend this property to anyone. Everything you need for a relaxing holiday was available. The cottage was really clean and had plenty of room, and plenty of hangers! Steve and Jana were so welcoming, the would stop and chat every time they saw us, even though they are running their farm. Beware the hungry Labrador Bailey ! He can open the front door if you dont lock it, he wants cuddles and treats! The cats are very friendly too. We were lucky enough to see a new born calf too
Luke
Cottage equipped well and was very clean. Lovely location nice and quiet
Samuel James
Weve been back every year since staying in 2019 and were booked again for 2023. Highly recommend if you like being in the countryside and exploring!
Brian
Excellent top draw
Neil
Really lovely cottage in a great location (if you are like us and dont mind short car journeys to visit places). Good size to all the rooms, well equipped, and the hot tub is great after a day out.
Alan
Situated on the farm in a beautiful quiet spot but just a couple of miles to the coast. Lots of walking in the area and fantastic scenery. Cottage had everything we needed and is finished to a very good specification. comfortable large enough for 4 people. Steve and Jana are welcoming and relaxed hosts. Would suggest this cottage can work for coupl es or families for all sorts of holiday needs.
Stephanie
The most beautiful little cottage. We felt very welcomed onto the farm, even Snowy the cat and Bailey the dog came to say hello a few times. Our first visit to Devon and it will not be our last!
Janice
Set in beautiful natural surroundings we found the outstanding cottage and facilities. - everything you need for a home from home, and spotlessly clean throughout. Warm, welcoming and helpful hosts who provided delicious treats for our arrival. A fantastic base to explore the wonders of North Devon and further afield to the Cornish coastline. A fab ulous setting to relax and recharge your batteries. We will definitely visit again and have recommended to friends and family.
Elizabeth
A fantastic cottage fully equipped with high quality furnishings, great hot tub, and such lovely people in Steve and Jana. Always available but never intrusive. Great to see a working farm. Highly recommended.
Julie
A beautiful, sparkling clean cottage on a working farm. The cottage has everything you could wish for and more. The hot tub is a welcome extra to come home to after exploring the surrounding areas. Lovely welcome gift on arrival of cake, wine and milk. Honestly cant thing of anything that could improve it. The location maybe remote for some, althou gh perfect for us. Great hosts who are always about if needed or just for a chat. Thank you so much for giving us a wonderful break away.
Michael
A really nice well equipped holiday cottage in a great location for exploring North Devon.
Lesley
Very comfortable cottage with lovely welcome cake and wine Despite being on a working farm it was very quiet Loads to see/do in the surrounding area and the hot tub was great to relax in
Moira
Little for cottage is lovely and clean and comfort. Hot tub is amazing. Kitchen has everything you would wish for. Location is quite good near the main route to Bude and bideford . You are literally on the farm, baby cows outside your kitchen window. Hosts are lovely and nothing is too much trouble
Nicola
The cottage was beautiful and had everything we needed. It's in quite a remote location, but that suited us just fine. It's a 30 / 35 minute drive to most tourist hotspots and big supermarkets, but it was lovely getting fresh milk from the dairy in the village, which has a crazily fabulous milkshake bar! We had a couple of rainy days, but really en joyed chilling with Netflix and the hot tub (and salted caramel milkshake). We would definitely come back for another stay.
Krissi
I honestly can't think of a single thing that I missed or that needed improving. Steve and Jana have thought of everything and are lovely hosts. It's honestly the best cottage I've stayed in and I'll definitely be looking to come back soon. Watching and hearing the cows going about their day was lovely, especially the babies just outside the kitche n window. This was, by far, the best holiday I've ever had and I truly felt at peace. Thank you so much Steve and Jana!
Clare
We had a lovely stay at the cottage, the welcome gift of wine and cake was very thoughtful. Steve and Jana were the perfect hosts and their cattle and pets added to the holiday. The cottage was clean and comfortable and the hot tub was appreciated.
Joanne
This is a wonderfully clean, well equipped + spacious cottage. We used both bedrooms and the beds are extremely comfy. There's an ensuite shower room as well as bath and an ample supply of hot water. You can light the log burner if needed on the colder nights. We found the rural location fine for what we needed and loved exploring the Bude beaches. Off season (March) not everything is open but not an issue for us and the cows were calving so there may be some mooing. Such is country living!
Sarah
Amazing, comfortable and cosy cottage, every detail thought of.
Lindsey
Beautifully presented, spacious cottage with a fabulous wood-burning stove and excellent hot tub with ample privacy. Comfortable beds, quality furnishings, fully equipped; it's one of the nicest holiday cottages we've ever stayed in. Steve and Jana were friendly, responsive and generous hosts. We had a fabulous holiday, and if we return to North De von, we'd happily stay here again.
J
What a lovely little gem. Gorgeous cottage, very clean and a great base to explore from. Owners very friendly and loved the welcome package. We will certainly be back .
Shaun
Lovely cottage well equipped well situated perfect for a break away
Sharon
Hot tub needed water changing as it was frothy. Otherwise the cottage was perfect.
