About the host
Hosted by Jackie & David Penny
We moved to Nutcombe Farm in 2017 having known the area ll our lives. We have been in the holiday let business for over 40 years so not new to hosting and love providing comfortable, clean and affordable holidays to our guests. Nutcombe is a truly fantastic place to live. Surrounded by nature with stunning countryside views. We love walking the South West Coast Path and exploring Exmoor and of course the magnificent beaches are to die for!
Why they chose this property
What's not to love about the setting we live in. Simply beautiful!
What makes this property unique
Nutcombe Cottage is set in peace and tranquil surroundings in it's own secluded valley. With only two other cottages on site, you can enjoy listening to the birds sing, watching the swallows swooping over the pond, the magnificent dark skies at night, the quietness, the stunning countryside views, lazy days on the terrace while the BBQ sizzles away. Yet you will be just 2 miles from the beach with the SW coast path and Exmoor just up the hill, making Nutcombe Cottage the perfect destination for walkers, couples or families who want to explore what North Devon has to offer.
