We had such a lovely time at this cottage! The place is beautifully maintained, both inside and outand super clean. Every little detail is spot on, making it really comfortable. The location is perfect for exploring the area. We especially enjoyed our mornings with Clive the cat, who always joined us for breakfastand taking our scraps to the pigs. Graham and Julie really make it special. Honestly, we couldnâ€™t fault it - another fantastic stay! Thanks so much!

James Carter

We recently stayed in a gorgeous stable conversion with a lovely little fenced garden perfect for the dogsand a cosy hot tub. The grounds of the manor are beautifully maintained, ideal for walks and exploring, plus meeting the farm animals was a real treat! The owners were so friendly, leaving us some cake, milkand biscuits which was a lovely touch. We didn't go out much, just enjoyed relaxing in stunning surroundings. Definitely planning to come back soon!

We had a fantastic time and canâ€™t wait to return! The owners were genuinely lovely, making us feel welcome from the start. The house and grounds were gorgeousand that peacock wandering around just added a special touch to our stay. Absolutely loved it!

Emily Carter

From the moment we arrived, the owners made us feel really welcomeand the lovely welcome pack was a nice touch. The cottage itself was cosy, cleanand had everything we needed. We loved wandering around the 25 acres of stunning land and meeting the animals - especially the pet pig and his sheep buddy! The hot tub was fantastic-big, deepand perfect for relaxing. Even our dogs felt safe and happy in the fenced garden. Weâ€™re already planning to come back and would recommend it to friends and family without hesitation!

Alex Morgan

We had an amazing stay at this place! The high beams really give it a lovely cosy feeland the bathroom, kitchenand bedroom were all well equipped - clearly a lot of thought went into it. Our three dogs loved the enclosed garden and the paddock for running around and doing their business, which was a huge plus. Location-wise, itâ€™s perfect for exploring North Devon, just off the A361, only 9 miles from Barnstaple. Getting to Saunton Sands and Ilfracombe was a breeze. Weâ€™d definitely recommend it!

Emma

We had such a lovely, chilled week here. Itâ€™s our third visit with our son and it never disappoints. The place is peaceful and well-equipped. The surrounding area is fantastic, especially watching the animals-our highlight was the new baby Alpaca! Definitely recommend for a relaxing getaway.

Alex Harper

We had an amazing time at The Stable! From the moment we arrived, it felt like visiting old friends with Julie and Graham. The views are stunningand our dogs were so chilled out exploring all the animals. The cottage was spotless and well-equipped. Definitely planning to come back soon. Thanks so much!

James

North Gate Stable is lovely, with a cosy feel and stunning views. The hosts are friendly and really make you feel welcome. Definitely worth a visit! Highly recommended.

Emma Turner

We spent Christmas hereand honestly, it felt really cosy and festive with all the decorations. Julie went above and beyond, bringing round Celebrations on Christmas Day, which was a lovely touch. The place was spotless and had everything we needed to cook our own Christmas dinner - hot tub was a no-go thanks to the weather, but thatâ€™s okay. The area around was simply stunningand weâ€™d definitely come back. Would highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing break over the holidays. Cheers!

Emma

We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage. Itâ€™s perfectly peaceful and tucked away, yet still close enough to the main roads for easy exploring. The welcoming cake on arrival was a lovely touchand the owners were super friendly and helpful. Weâ€™d definitely come back again!

Jamie

We had such a lovely time at this cottage! The place was spotless and had everything we needed. Location couldnâ€™t be better - close enough to explore but still peaceful. The onsite petting farm was a real highlight, perfect for winding down in the evenings. The hosts were super friendly and really made us feel welcome. Honestly, itâ€™s probably the best UK holiday spot weâ€™ve found so far. Weâ€™re already planning our return!

Graham

Just book your stay, you won't be let down in any way! We could not have wished for anything better or indeed anything more from our time here. We needed a chilled break from our hectic working lives with our two dogs. The super hot tub was perfect for unwinding after long days exploring the many nearby beauty spots. We particularly recommend Tarr Steps and Woolacombe beach. Julie, our host, was so welcoming and nothing felt like too much trouble; it really felt like we made a friend rather than just meeting a host.

Lucas

We arrived to Prosecco, chocolates and cake! The cottage is spotless, spacious and perfectly equipped. The beds are very comfortable, the hot water pressure is goodand the heated floors are fab if you're visiting in the colder months. The location is great for exploring Exmoor, the coast or local attractions. The owners were really lovely and showed the kids the animals on the farm, which they adored, especially Georgie the sheep! Weâ€™ll definitely be back!

Oliver

This property is a real gem, tucked away in such a stunning part of the country! It's an excellently equipped and comfortable base for exploring the local area. Everything we needed was right there, making it a perfect spot to unwind on days when we didn't want to travel much. The tranquil and beautiful surroundings really enhanced our stay. We can't recommend this highly enough!

Emma

The cottage was lovely, with great facilities and a fantastic location. We had such a good time that the kids are already asking to come back!

Sophie

Fantastic accommodation and hosts! We had everything we could possibly want for a self-catering holidayand the property (plus hot tub) was spotlessly clean. The prosecco, chocolatesand mince pies were such a lovely touch and went down a treat! This is a brilliant place to stay for easy access to lots of great spots, but you could also just relax and enjoy the grounds and the beautiful animals.

George

We would definitely recommend it! The cottage is spotlessand the kitchen has all the necessary cutlery, platesand pots. If you want a peaceful spot for a holiday or just a change from city life, this is the perfect place.
