We loved our stay at Valleys End. A lovely holiday cottage with everything kitchen wise and a comfy bed and lounge. The garden is great to sit out in watching the birdlife from the decking area which is also private. The village has 1 pub which serves typical pub grub and has very friendly staff also the locals and neighbours are very friendly. LotRead mores of thins to see and do, kayaking, beach days, Clovelly is a gorgeous village to visit and lots of eateries in Bideford and Barnstaple. Fantastic hol Hide

Valleys End Cottage is a lovely chocolate box cottage. Its warm, cosy & well equipped with a lovely log burner & pretty garden which we used as the weather was kind to us. The owner is friendly & helpful. Appledore is nearby for a nice walk & lunch and I liked Affinity shopping centre for some nice retail therapy & if you need any supplies Asda is Read moreright next door. The owner left a lovely cream tea & a bottle of wine in the fridge so nice touch which made us feel welcome. Hide
