We had a lovely stay in The Stables. Peaceful, lovely enclosed garden for our dog. Very relaxed atmosphere. The cottage has everything you need and the swimming pool and gardens were very much enjoyed by my children. We visited Tarr Steps and Westward Ho! A really great break.

Lovely and clean cottage. Approach road needs special care, need good suspension on car! Pool was brilliant, used it most days. North Devon is a gem, unlike the busy resorts in South Devon.

Fantastic place to stay! Beautiful accommodation in a lovely setting. We stayed in the stable cottage which was lovely. Had everything we needed and the scones, jam and cream were delicious. The pool and games room were ideal if you wanted to kick back and have a lazy day. The location is off the beaten track, which means its very peaceful, but be Read moreprepared to navigate narrow lanes to get anywhere. If you want a quiet retreat to relax, this is the place to stay. Hide
