This is a spacious well equipped cottage. Warm and cozy but open and light. Enclosed garden area was great to let our dog roam safely. It had everything we needed for self catering.. We loved it and would return and recommend this property to all our friends.

Mill Barn is huge, with great outside very private space, every effort has been made to secure the garden for pets and children. The cake and things to make a nice cuppa on arrival was most welcome. And a nice touch with treats for our fur baby too. Kitchen was well equipped if you wanted to cook at home, with grocery shops like Sains only a mile aRead moreway. We felt the location was well placed for visiting not only North Devon but north Cornwall and Somerset too. Lots to do. Being really picky, the only thing I didnt like was the noise of the road when outside in the garden, but in the Barn you cannot hear it. And the huge secure gate closes you off from it. And this is what also makes the location great as you are straight onto a road that leads you to all the great places to visit. Hide

Very well equipped which is always good when hosting Christmas dinner for the family. Property had a Christmas tree and wreath which really made a difference. For a dog walk you will need a short drive to the south Molton community woodland as very wet everywhere else.

If you're looking for somewhere to stay with easy access to both the sea and moors then this is for you. The cottage is perfect and will easily support six adults. If you have children, two of the double beds can be split to make two twin rooms. The cottage is generously equipped with everything you need for a very comfortable stay and the log burnRead moreer at night is very toasty. There is also central heating if you need it. The benefit of off road secure parking for at least 3 medium sized cars is a great asset. A great property for all your needs! Hide

Everything was perfect. The only thing I would suggest (unless we missed it) is that in the colder months perhaps have a grit/salt box available as the patio area outside the front door was extremely slippery on arrival.
