The cottage was gorgeousand the pub just a short walk uphill served really tasty food. The hot tub was a real bonus! The shower drain could do with a look, but the bed was super comfy. Would definitely recommend!
Harper
We really enjoyed our stay at the cottage - it was beautifully designed and had a cosy feel. The only thing that was a bit frustrating was the lack of info about local attractions and things to do. We were told updates would be sent, but never received them, which was a shame. There were some disruptions with valuations and visits from the national grid, which didn’t help, but overall, we’re keen to come back to North Devon. We feel like we missed out on so much because of the limited info provided.

Great stay, just a bit pricey for two nights.
Emma
We think this cottage is pretty new to the holiday sceneand it's clear the owner’s invested a lot into making it nice. There are a couple of minor teething problems, but we’re sure they’ll be sorted quickly since the place already looks great. Parking on the street was never a problem for us. The local pub is just a couple of minutes’ walk away and it’s a handy base for exploring north Devon. Overall, we had a lovely stay and would definitely return!
