About this property

Luxury Holiday Cottages Set in Beautiful Devon Scenery

It has a fully-equipped kitchen with ceramic hob and fan oven, microwave, fridge-freezer, washing machine and dishwasher. It has central heating, television and wifi broadband. All linen and bedding is provided.


Our four-star traditional barn conversion & two Scandinavian lodges are situated in 17 acres of quiet, unspoilt countryside with picturesque lake where our visitors are free to roam and enjoy a gentler pace of life.

Spacious property in beautiful area.

The property was spacious, clean and well equipped surrounded by beautiful countryside and an array of birds. My teenage boys made full use of the table tennis, darts and tennis court too which made a nice addition to the properties on this site.

Kitchen was clean, frying pan was worn not dirty, mouse unfortunate, we have seen no droppings. however guests were disgusting leaving used sanitary item on edge of shower dispite a recepticle for such things. Nobody has ever done this in 14 years . Grill pan left in a revolting state and food left under the washing up bowel in sink. If every one was like this we would shut down today.

Idyllic setting for a peaceful stay

We stayed in the Old Cider Barn. There were 3 of us, although it could sleep 5. It's very spacious for a two bedroom place with everything you need and the kitchen was well equipped with crockery and cutlery etc. It was very clean and the location is idyllic and extremely peaceful as it's set deep in the countryside. We really enjoyed having a bit of fun on the tennis court there and played some table tennis. We saw plenty of wildlife watched rabbits, squirrels and lots of birds when just sitting at the table eating. Being between the coasts we found it a good starting point for north and south and did activities on both from kayaking to a seal safari and also took a trip on the Somerset Steam Railway. There is fabulous scenery in the area and the owners have left a selection of information guides on a variety of things to do locally. An enjoyable holiday, the hosts were very helpful and we felt comfortable and enjoyed the space, peace and quiet as well as the facilities there. Excellent value for money and I would be happy to return if I were going to the same area in the future.

Very good overall, didn’t like how it was set deep into single traffic lanes.

The property was very good value for the money we paid.

Staycation

Great place nicely off the beaten track. We needed somewhere for some peace and quiet & this place was perfect. Easy access to M5 & A361 ( both 15mins) meaning just 1hr trips to North & South Devon coasts. We stayed in the Cider Barn, 1 of 3 properties on site. It was homely with character and very nice. Beware of the narrow lanes in the area but take it steady and there's no problem. Great value for money, would recommend and happily stay here again. Closest shops are 15mins in opposite directions, closest pub, The Staplecross Inn is less than 1/2 mile, great food & atmosphere.

Fabulous Countryside Destination

The Cider Barn is a very well equipped cottage in a beautiful countryside location, but is very near to the lovely towns of Honiton and Tiverton. We utilised the games room and enjoyed watching the wildlife from inside the cottage. Super short break

Family holiday

We chose this accommodation due to it’s peaceful surroundings, ideal for our excitable puppy and three, outdoor loving, children. The Cider Barn was well equipped and spacious enough for five of us and a large dog. The secure, private, outdoor area was a real bonus for us. Heather was a helpful host willing to answer any questions about locality or activities near by. Well worth a look.

A roomy and well equipped country cottage, ideal for getting away for a short break

A lovely cottage, with everything you would need provided. Set in a beautiful location with peace and quiet as your backdrop. Both Tod and Heather were our friendly and approachable hosts, with lots of local information of places to go. A wonderful country pub only 10 minutes walk away that served excellent meals meant no cooking or driving worries.Would highly recommend and would hope to visit again.

About the host

Hosted by Tod Bainbridge

Host profile image
Tod and Heather Bainbridge have lived here for over thirty years and have been running Quarry Hockford Cottages for ten years.

We started with the Cider Barn and added Orchard Lodge eight years ago and Lakeside this year (2014).

Why they chose this property

When our children were young the property and the area provided good riding and plenty of room for the horses. Now we just enjoy the peace and tranquillity and the feeling of remoteness while still having good access and easy communications.

What makes this property unique

Rural seclusion and tranquility . Stunning Exmoor National Park a few minutes away. Good communication links.
