An amazing stay at an amazing property. The Granary is a perfectly formed little nest for couples looking to get away from it all. The property offers an open plan living space with a well equipt kitchen. Upstairs is a romantic and cosy bedroom with en-suit bathroom. A bonus is the privat hot tub just outside, great to unwind in after a long day. O ur hosts provided everything we could want or need and were extremely welcoming. Our stay over Christmas was amazing and I can't recommend enough.
Richard
A lovely, compact cottage with everything we needed. We were a couple with a dog and it worked very well for us. Super clean, well laid out, warm and with some very nice personal touches. The hot tub is excellent and not overlooked. There is a stair gate as dogs are not allowed upstairs. The amount of space is comparable to a hotel suite. The views are spectacular, the owners were friendly - they live right next door. Worth saying that you can sometimes hear traffic from the nearby main road.

Easy to find and upon arrival met by Julie. Could not be more helpful and topped off with a welcome box of goodies. The Granary caters for all needs and a real home from home other than the fact that its set in 22 acres! Brilliant. Lovely to see the animals too. The private hot tub at the rear of the property was great and again a great little set up. We caught up with Julie during our stay and were impressed with her future plans. We wish her well amd would love to return- busy lives allowing!

We had a lovely relaxing stay in the well equipped cosy cottage. The hot tub, which was at the back of the property, was private, very clean and always ready to use. We were able to use the outside seating area for an alfresco BBQ and watch the night stars while soaking in the hot tub. The owner was very welcoming and invited us to walk the grounds and visit the many animals on site. Overall a wonderful week away and a perfect spot to explore north Devon's many attractions.

We have just come back from a lovely 5 day stay at North Gate Granary. We booked The Granary as it was just the two of us and we loved it. Its the perfect sized, very well kept and very clean! We absolutely loved our stay and loved having the animals coming to say hello every morning. We will be back to stay as soon as we can. Its a great location so you can drive to attractions near by and has some lovely walks and pubs nearby. Julie was an amazing host.
Stephen
Had a lovely time, beautiful location, very pleased with everything about your amazing cottage will come again thank you for having us Steve & Charlotte
Yasmin
The cottage was a great place to stay during our short time in North Devon. Immaculately clean, cosy, beautiful views and well-positioned in terms of being so close to Exmoor and within reasonable driving distance of the North Devonshire coast. The hot tub is a great addition and the animals on site are a lovely compliment to a morning walk. In add ition to all of that, Julie and Graham were very welcoming hosts. Would definitely recommend to anyone looking to stay in North Devon.
Michael
Arrived a later time than planned but Julie was brilliant in welcoming us in, the cottage was a perfect setup for us whilst away for the week and even though its set out away from a lot of places theres plenty to do nearby with Woolacombe, ilfracombe and lynton our favourites. Julie was a great host and I would highly recommend the stay.
