We loved Poppy Cottage and the farm. The kids loved the games room and the outdoor space. The cottage was cosy and characterful and Ive already recommended it to other families. The location is perfect - short drive to Woolacombe for bodyboarding and Combe Martin for paddle boarding.

The cottage is delightful, very comfortable, kitchen is well equipped, the shower is excellent, we did not use the games room or Tennis court but a great facility for those with children, lovely place for a holiday and near to the beautiful coast at Ilfracombe and Woolacombe. Also lovey to see the chickens!

Very cosy cottage, if you are wanting all mod cons then Poppy Cottage probably isnt for you, but if you are looking a cozy cottage as a base then its well worth a visit.

Perfect if you want a get away from everything break. So peaceful. For those with dogs, this is a lovely place to stay, enclosed safe garden, farmland to walk the dogs and near enough to Ilfracombe and Woolacombe to go for a run on the beach.

Good location for Woolacombe. Friendly host. Internet slow. Cottage fine for two but rather tight on space for more in our opinion. Washing machine is not in cottage, host offered to wash but would prefer to be independent.
