Summary: This cottage provided an absolutely wonderful summer holiday for our family this August 2025 the best part was the garden at the back which was huge and provided really nice views of surrounding countryside and was nice and quiet around and it was wonderful to sit in the garden and just listen to the sounds of nature, including the bleeding sheep and mooing cows in the distant fields. Another excellent part of the cottage was the games room with its pool table and table tennis. This is something the children really enjoyed. The cottage itself was also very comfortable indeed and immaculately clean and you could tell that a lot of care had gone into creating a really nice holiday home. The cottage was also near some nice places to visit, especially Combe Martin, and Woolacombe Beach where we went nearly every day. overall just a really nice place to stay and would highly recommend.
