Cottage was immaculately clean. Owners were warm and friendly, pool, hot tub & sauna were a nice touch. During bad weather our child was entertained in the games room. Grounds were well maintained & enjoyable to walk around, even without a dog. Beaches & things to do about half an hour away. Lots of wildlife, very quiet & could hear owls at night.

A lovely stay at Mettaford Farm. Very peaceful, with plenty of extra things for the kids to do. A large field and smaller lawn for outdoor games, plus indoor pool and games room for wet (or hot) weather. The cottage was clean and spacious enough for 4 and had everything we needed. The laundry was useful when travelling with kids. Lesley and Robin aRead morere great hosts and they are on site for any queries. The Hartland area is stunning but you do need a car to get anywhere!

Great cottage in a lovely part of Devon. Extremely well equipped and spotlessly clean. There are plenty of places to explore within a short drive and the scenery is spectacular. The swimming pool and games room were loved by our 16 year old grandson and we would not hesitate to return.

Lovely quiet area. Pool is a nice facility. Good chippy in the village. Travel to Bude for the best Chinese at Wei Cheng or into Bideford for shopping and a large choice of restaurants.
