The cottage was very comfortable and well equipped. A great location to visit local attractions. It was a brilliant holiday for the dogs having the use of the field for walking. They thoroughly enjoyed their stay and were awake early as they loved the garden so much.

Thoroughly enjoyed. Very dog friendly and wonderful grounds for our sole use. Rural and quiet. Very relaxing - not far from main visitor sites of Appledore, Instow and Clovelly. Very good gastro -pubs/ inns nearby, too as is the Atlantic Village retail park. Highly recommend. Hosts were very accommodating and welcoming, nothing too much bother.

Dog-friendly cosy cabin in the woods (and minutes from the coast). The place is so tranquil. Even at Christmastime we awoke to the sound of tweeting birds outside. The log burner came in handy (and the endless free supply of logs was very much appreciated, as were the his and hers welcome gifts. Lovely touch. Highly recommended.
