The cottage is a great size and very well equipped, with plenty of storage too. The 3 bedrooms are all a good size, especially the master with en suite shower room. There's a washing machine and two lovely outdoor seating areas; one courtyard style and the other at the top of the vast sloped lawn with stunning views over the North Devon countryside. The cottage is situated on a farm and the owners, Alison and Mark are extremely friendly and helpful; Mark even gave us a wonderful tour of the farm which was great.
The cottage is brilliantly situated for exploring the local area and is only 10 minutes drive from Barnstaple. There are some fantastic restaurants within a 10 to 15 minutes drive and, a little further afield, plenty to see and do.
We had a wonderful time and found the cottage very peaceful and tranquil with only the sounds of birdsong and the sheep.
The only addition I would make would be to add a shower over the bath in the family bathroom. The four of us managed fine as 2 of us used the one in the en-suite and 2 of us the walk in shower room on the ground floor. It just would have been even better if we could have showered in the family bathroom too. However it would be great if you have young children to bath as the bath and bathroom are huge.
All in all, we had an absolutely lovely week; the cottage was a lovely, cosy base and Alison and Mark are fantastic hosts.
