Honestly, this cottage exceeded our expectations. It’s so peaceful and the view from the hot tub is just stunning - we didn’t want to leave! The place has everything you need for a comfy self-catering stay, with really cosy beds. Even though it’s on a farm, it’s incredibly quiet. The outdoor space was perfect for our kids to play.

Emma
We really enjoyed our stay, especially the hot tub and the stunning views, which were a real highlight for us and our granddaughter, even with the rainy weather. The cottage was surprisingly spacious, sleeping 9 but we only had 4. Access is down a narrow lane, but it's close enough to the main road for easy trips around the area. Mike was fantastic with our little one, taking her for rides on his tractor and quad bike. Shame the garden play equipment wasn’t used much due to the weather, but overall, a lovely break!
James
We had a fantastic time here! The family running the place are genuinely lovely and went out of their way to be helpful, especially with our two little ones aged 2 and 5. Being on a working farm was such a cool experienceand the countryside around is just stunning. The hot tub was a real treat and got used dailyand the kids loved the play area. We really enjoyed our stay and would definitely recommend it!

Such a lovely cottage in a lovely setting! The views from the hot tub were stunningand the owners were really helpful and friendly. They even lent a screwdriver to help our grandson fix his train set! It was easy to findand there are loads of places to visit for both kids and adults. The location was perfect for shopping and we had a very relaxing break. We would definitely recommend it to family and friends and would book again. Our grandson loved it and our dog Luna had plenty of garden to run around in. Thanks for the use of your cottage, Mike and Linda!

We’ve visited this property twice now with our familyand we loved it just as much the second time round! It’s really convenient to get to Westwood Ho, plus there are other lovely west coast resorts not far away. Just a short drive down the road is Atlantic Village shopping Centre, where you can find Asda, Aldi and Lidl. The kids absolutely loved the farm environment. We made great use of the hot tuband the garden facilities were perfect for them. The owners were really pleasant and accommodating.
