Nuthatch Cottage Reviews

David

Overall we loved the cottage hot tub and position the games room was an extra bonus for the adults to find their inner children!

Sonia

Lovely cottage, but with a dog and young baby, we couldn't find safe places to walk with a pushchair. Only country lanes, no pavements or walking trails . Overall, the weather was great, and 4 generations enjoyed their weekend break together, with a reasonably priced takeaway from China Orchids in Cullompton .

Lovely cottage. We had a great break and cannot wait to return.

Lisa

This is the perfect place for a friends/family get together, the cottage is in a beautiful setting with everything you need. The cottage itself is perfect, well equipped and comfortable, the games room was an absolute bonus and one of the reasons we chose it. Loved the private hot tub too

Louise

Raymond

Ben

Lovely place to stay. We had a family holiday, 7 of us plus a lab, for 7 nights. The cottage was really well equipped for a self catering holiday. Hosts were great, checking in as we bumped into them but not too intrusive throughout our stay. Games room was an added bonus and the hot tub was well looked after, checked every morning. We even had acc ess to a field for the dog. Would highly recommend this cottage for a great break away. We would book again!

Edwin

A beautiful cottage, and if you want a relaxing holiday in the middle of the countryside, this is the place to go. There's a game's room with a pool table, table tennis and table football, so you can have some entertaining evenings. The hot tub was very relaxing and well maintained. And being dog friendly is a bonus.

Val

As five sisters, we aim to get away for a weekend at February half term every year. We chose Nuthatch Cottage this time because of the layout downstairs. It was open plan and very comfortable and homely. The hot tub was a bonus too. The accommodation was spacious and beds were comfortable.

Clare

What a wonderful place Nuthatch cottage is! The quietness (except for the birds and occasional parachute) is so relaxing. The night sky is dark so reveals stars we could not see at home. Fantastic location for a peaceful getaway. The cottage itself is very comfortable and well equipped, even had a mixer and cake tin if you are so inclined! Beds wer e very comfortable - probably the best nights sleep I've had! Hot tub was really nice and everything well kept and maintained. Hosts are lovely too!

Joanna

Lovely cottage with plenty of space for 8 people. Peaceful with views over the countryside.

Shaila

We had a party of 8 adults and 2 infants, some of us arrived early and Mrs Luxmoore was accommodating and let us in early. The bedroom and bathrooms were a good size, the downstairs bedroom is best to sleep in on a hot summers night, the kitchen and dining is spacious and fully equipped. There is ample parking (we had 3 cars) and the views are beau tiful, we didn't visit the games room due to time. We overall enjoyed our stay and would recommend it.
