Sunnybank A Holiday With A View!

Sunnybank is a villa-style property in the heart of the little-known but beautiful Blackdown Hills. Situated in the lee of Penncross Hill and reached by a quiet country lane, Sunnybank boasts unequaled panoramic views of the Culm Valley.

All creature comforts have been provided from plenty of comfortable seating in the living room through top-of the-range kitchen appliances to en suite bedrooms with super-king sized beds. Oil-fired central heating keeps the house warm when required and there is hot water on demand. Pool,Table Football and Darts are available in the games rooms. Sunnybank has a large sheltered terraced garden with plenty of room for the kids to run around and adults sit and relax, perhaps enjoying a soak in our hot tub. WiFi internet is available, ideal for surfing the web or keeping in touch with family and friends.

Our weeks run from Friday to Friday and we also offer 2 and 3 night weekend breaks. outside of the peak season. We also offer 4 night mid-week breaks.

Beautiful setting
Cath was a great host and was just at the end of the phone for any issues… welcomed with a home made cake as well such a nice touch…we had booked to celebrate a 50th wedding anniversary so 3 couples and had looked carefully at the layout we wanted.. as we were doing a celebration meal didn’t want people to be separated by the kitchen being shut off …. This cottage was ideal all open plan and sitting in the dining room you could still talk to people in the kitchen.. Hot tub was great as were the size of all the rooms… very well equipped home… our only comments to the negative were the beds… 2 beds were very low to the ground and also very very hard…so not such good nights sleep… we would certainly return but only if the beds were changed. Shame cause everything else was more than we expected…

Excellent
Cath was so lovely and very flexible. The property is huge and has every facility you could wish for. Plenty of seating for everyone, great kitchen facilities and a delicious cake left for us. The views were amazing and the local pub does an amazing roast. Many thanks Cath for a lovely stay

A family getaway
The hot tub and the garage games were brilliant for 3 generations of our family. The house is well equipped and spacious. We loved the peace and the view.

About the host

Hosted by Catherine Elcock

Host profile image
Sunnybank overlooks Culm Pyne, the farm where me (Cath) and my partner Guy live and work. Our lives are shared with a variety of hounds and terriers and two' hairy ponies' whom I seem to spend all my spare time running around after! We grow cider apples for a living; they are sold to both multinational companies and local artisan cider makers. So it is very likely that if you drink cider you will have tasted our apples! I also run a small livery yard, so horses are to be found grazing in the surrounding fields.

Why they chose this property

We purchased Sunnybank due to its proximity to the farm. But mostly we purchased Sunnybank for the views; looking across the Culm Valley on a clear day you can as far as Dartmoor. We feel there is nowhere with a more spectacular setting in the Blackdown Hills. Sunnybank is only 15 minutes from junction 26 of the M5 motorway and is only 1/2 mile from Hemyock with its shops, pubs and range of amenities. Yet it is set in a very quiet location, ideal for a peaceful and relaxing holiday.
