We loved our stay, from the cleanliness to the ever helpful Mike. The beautiful Aga and lovely warm kitchen were a treat. My dog and myself were sad to leave it! The swimming pool and jacuzzi were wonderful and we all had fun making use of the facilities. The garden is stunning but please be mindful if you have young children that the stream is accRead moreessible and runs alongside the lower garden. We loved this holiday home and would like to return. Hide

Wow wow wow!!! This beautiful farmhouse was beyond expectations. Everything about the place and the location was just perfect.

Gareth
Amazing setting, very comfortable and clean. The beds are huge! We had a very relaxing week and even simply walking down the drive is worth the trip.
Evan
This is an amazing holiday property in a beautiful setting. The property is of a very high standard, well equipped, spacious, very clean and most comfortable. It's located on a half mile private track running alongside a fast moving stream. The directions are clear, which is just as well because the SatNav took us to another oadf of the valley. HowRead moreever, it is recommended that a sign is clearly displayed as we missed the turn off. The pool and jacuzzi was a luxury bonus. Very good value. Hide
Katie
We had a fabulous stay here. A really well maintained property in a fabulous location with walks from the doorstep, including to Parracombe with its lovely community shop and pub. The pool is a lovely bonus, great to be able to access this direct from the house.
MARK
Second time we have stayed at Heddon valley farmhouse, beautiful property, stunning location and a great place to relax, will definitely return again. I recommend this property to anyone looking for peace and quiet in a fantastic location, but still near to some stunning beaches to walk your dogs and beautiful moorlands. Mark, Sarah Blu and Rook
Gary
The pictures advertising the farmhouse do not do it justice. Amazing property in a fantastic location, quality furnishing and fully equipped for a perfect stay. The swimming pool was the icing on the cake. Would recommend a stay at Heddon Valley Mill to everybody
Jessica
Amazing stay at Heddon Valley. Stunning house, high quality finishes, plenty of space for socialising and relaxing. The pool & jacuzzi are a great addition and can be accessed from the lounge. The setting is beautiful right next to a stream which can be viewed from the main bedrooms. Secluded location with closest pub 1.6 miles away and small garagRead moree 10 minute drive, but close enough to surrounding tourist hotspots. Hide
Paula
Beautiful house and great location. Unfortunately we had issues with the heating and internet which were not solved during our stay. Internet speed of 0.97 will be of an even greater issue to many people I suspect but hopefully this will be solved. You will enjoy the swimming pool and Jacuzzi especially if staying in wet and windy conditions!
MARK

This property is a wonderful place for a very quiet relaxing holiday. The whole house is very well kept and beautifully decorated. Comfy beds. Enjoyed the pool getting exercise without having to go outside, especially as we had very wet weather. Unfortunately could not make good use of all the surrounding walks due to the weather. Good base for visRead moreiting the coast. The drive is very long and narrow, watch out for the speed bumps. Hide

The cottage is absolutely fantastic and had everything required for a fantastic family holiday. The children loved the pool and used it at least twice daily.

Helen
The house is absolutely stunning, better than the photos! The perfect place to unwind. The house was spotlessly clean, rooms spacious and beds very comfortable.
Frank
Beautiful property with excellent facilities, Mike and Mandy were very helpful and friendly! Property was exceptionally clean and well presented. Amazing walks and views from all sides! Swimming pool was much bigger than it looked, kids had a great time! Some more outdoor soft furniture in the garden would have been the cherry on the top! Very comf ortable beds and wonderful showers. I would highly recommend this property.
Rachael
Absolutely loved our stay, house is finished to a very high standard. Really wanted to take the bed home with us Exclusive use of the pool was perfect and one of the main reasons we booked. The welcome items of scones, jam and cream were very welcome. Beautiful area to stay in, the garden was lovely, so peaceful and quiet. Stayed here with our two adult sons and one partner, it was just perfect, would and have recommended to anybody looking for a quiet piece of comfort/luxury. Loved it
Joanne
Beautifully remote location. Stunning house. Gave well deserved 5 stars, only knocked down equipment to 4 because the Aga was a bit tricky and pizza oven was out of action which was going to be a star turn of the holiday. Home made pizzas went in the Aga instead. Found delightful slow worm in the garden and were convinced that bird of prey circling over the garden was after our mini dachshund Memorable holiday.
Nigel
We were greeted with fresh flowers, scones, jam & clotted cream. The kitchen was well equipped but the Aga takes some getting used to. The rooms were furnished to a very high specification and extremely spacious with really comfy beds. Dogs are welcome. The jacuzzi & pool is a bonus and we didn't think it would be as big as it was. There is an exce llent standard of maintenance and cleanliness. A great area for walking and exploring the area and we would highly recommend it as a place to relax.
Sarah
Excellent accommodation, furnishings, pool, pizza oven and location. Set in beautiful secure grounds and wider reaching woods this property was fabulous. We stayed with 4 children from 2-14 years old plus 2 dogs and there was something for everyone, even a little conservatory with a dog bed and outside space for the dogs meaning they were safe and secure at night. Would highly recommend.
Jayne
WOW! The Farmhouse and setting are beautiful. Everything about this place is perfect and the owners have equipped it to a high standard. I chose this Farmhouse as it had an indoor pool and generally my birthday in May it rains so wanted to have it inside just in case. As it was the weather was beautiful throughout our stay and we used the pool ever yday but also spent time in the gorgeous garden withBBQ &Pizza oven.I found Mike the maintenance man helpful prior to our arrival and during our stay
Dawn
Beautiful house and setting. Plenty of wild life and photographic scenery. Kitchen has everything you could wish for.
Rachel
Beautiful house in a beautiful location. Really loved our stay here.
Karen
This house is absolutely amazing. The photos dont do it justice. Its a really beautiful, spacious, comfortable, clean house and the most peaceful setting with a beautiful garden. Wake up to the sound of birdsong and the stream running through the grounds. The swimming pool is heated to around a very comfortable 29 degrees. Its 1.5m deep. The hot tu b is around a toasty 40 degrees. We spent 9 nights here and had the most lovely holiday with the family and our toy poodle Luna. This really is 5.
Shirley

We stayed in the house for our honeymoon with out little dog bobi, we couldnt of asked for a more private and peaceful location, the swimming pool area is great and there loads of walks on the grounds. We are definitely booking again next year.
Victoria
Words cannot describe just how amazing this place is. My jaw dropped to the floor when walking in. Everything was done to perfection. The owners have clearly not scrimped on the quality of furniture and facilities. We had such a relaxing time we didnt want to leave. Cant wait to go again
