We really enjoyed our stay here. The pool was fantastic and the kids loved it, though the temperature kept changing from cold to hot - hope they sort that out! The games area was a big hitand the views are simply stunning. The cottage could do with some sprucing up, but we hear a refit is planned for winter. Overall, a lovely place!

We had a great stay! The house was perfect for our group of 8, with plenty of room to relax. The bunk rooms are a bit cosy, but comfy enough for sleeping. The kitchen was surprisingly well-stocked, we even had to rearrange cupboards to fit all our food. The swimming pool and hot tub were fantasticand the sauna was a nice touch. The playroom kept the kids busy during the rainy days. The grounds are stunningand weâ€™d love to come back in the summer!

Even with the terrible weather, we had a lovely time. The pool was a highlightand the place was super comfy with all the essentials. The location's spot on for checking out north Devon - so many things nearby. Our teens loved their surf lesson at Woolacombe beach, definitely a trip to remember!

This place was perfect for our familyâ€™s golden wedding celebration! Kids and adults had a blast with the pool and games room. The peaceful setting made it all even better, really loved it!

James

We stayed at this cottage expecting a cosy place for ten, but two bedrooms were tiny-one had no space for clothes at all. Only having one key was a pain, especially with so many of us wanting to come and go at different times. The kids loved the games room, but the outdoor play area was pretty limited. Still, the views were lovely and made up for some of the shortcomings. Overall, not too bad!

Emma Carter

We recently stayed as a family of 7 adults and 2 kidsand honestly, it was brilliant! The place was spotless and had all we needed. The gardens looked gorgeousand we loved relaxing by the pool, hot tuband sauna. The kids adored the games roomand Binky the dog was just too adorable! Weâ€™re already talking about coming back. Thanks for a lovely stay - we had a great time and left feeling very happy!

Emma

Meadowsweet was just what we needed for a relaxing family weekend. The open-plan living space made it easy to unwind and enjoy meals together at the big table. Having the indoor pool so nearby was a real plus, especially with little ones. We loved the games room and meeting the donkeys and Shetland pony. The countryside setting in Devon is simply stunning - weâ€™d definitely come back!

Sophie

We stayed here with our kidsand while the bunk rooms are tiny and the bunks a bit chunky, the animals and playground were a hit! The games room lacked balls, but overall, itâ€™s a great spot to explore North Devon. Nice place!

Emma

We had a lovely stay at Smythen Farm Cottages, especially in January for a 40th birthday celebration with friends, kidsand dogs. The cottages are beautifully situated in such a peaceful spot, with everything we needed for a comfy break. When we hit a small snag with the TV and water, the team sorted it out straight away, which was great. Weâ€™re already planning to come back!
