This is a really comfortable and well equipped cottage. The location was ideal for sight seeing and visiting places of interest. The icing on the cake was the hot tub in the garden, which we used every day - perfect for tired feet and just chilling with a glass of prosecco!

We had a lovely stay at The Granary. The cottage is very well equipped with all you could need for a self catering stay. The location is excellent as all amenities and places to visit were easily within a 30 minute drive whether you were after shopping, beaches or walks. There was some farm traffic during the day but it wasn't noisy and the evenRead moreings are perfectly peaceful. With little light pollution, the night sky is pretty special. The cottage was very clean and comfortable with plenty of space. The garden is well maintained and secluded and the hot tub is a real treat. We can certainly recommend this cottage if you are after a relaxing stay within easy reach of things to do. Hide

The Granary was a beautifully appointed and maintained property and its isolation was part of the appeal. We had no contact from the owners throughout the duration as had no problems. Take an initial stock of food and drink with you as not easy to pop down to the local shop if youve forgotten something as is up a long uneven farm track. We loved iRead moret here, the furniture was top notch and the hot tub lovely. Hide

The cottage is set back up a long long track but good directions were given. Location was great for all the North Devon locations we were looking at exploring with our two dogs. It took some getting used to having upside down house with bedrooms downstairs but there is a stair gate so dogs cant run straight down. Theres plenty of room to relax in tRead morehe cottage and good comfortable sofas too. Very warm with underfloor heating, the owners were very accommodating and would answer any questions we had. Overall great little place. Hide

Really beautiful property in a great location. Would recommend Woolacombe beach and Arlington court for great dog walks. The Granary garden is very muddy in the wet so bring plenty of dog towels for feet wiping :) Hot tub was lush even on a rainy day. Luxurious bedrooms and en suites with plenty of space upstairs for everyone!
