Cottage is in a lovely scenic area of Devon very close to Bideford with a bus running through the villlage. Very friendly and helpful villagers. Cyder Presse Pub was great and definitely worth a visit for either a drink or a meal. Alex and Bernie were very helpful and would love to return to the cottage going forward at some point.

We had a wonderful week at Cricket Green. Alex and Bernie were the perfect hosts . They told us the best places to visit and where to eat. A must is the local ice cream bought off a mobile van . Unfortunately we did not ride the Tarka bike trail . The surrounding towns & villages were enjoyable to visit. The Cyder Presse is a very friendly pub and Read morea must for Sunday dinner with proper roast potatoes. Book in advance . Overall a very pleasant stay with super hosts .. Hide
