Nigel and Lesley
Very cosy cottage with everything we needed for a comfortable week’s holiday. Ann, the owner, greeted us on arrival and made us feel very welcome, also helped by the cream tea in the fridge!With the weather being rather cold and damp it was great to have excellent heating available in the cottage.The location is wonderful for exploring Exmoor, North Devon and much of Somerset too if you wish.

Fabulous little cottage. Comfortable, clean and cosy. Super little garden with 2 or 3 places to sit out and soak up the sun should it be shining!.Downside was that the village pub had closed and there were major road disruptions due to mains gas works but it didn't detract from the lovely surroundings. Would definitely recommend

The Hayloft was beautifully clean and comfortable with everything you could need for your stay. We met Anne on arrival and she was very helpful, the cream tea was very welcome and there was a small amount of catering packs of tea and coffee if you were unprepared. We weren’t too worried about the lack of a pub on the doorstep because we had come just to use the accommodation as a base. It is 8 years since our last visit to Exmoor, when we were based in Minehead, and we loved Ilfracombe.
