+Good location for exploring N Devon & Cornwall coast. Good for venturing inland as well. There are 2 properties available. Go for the Homestead with its own garden and views across the local countryside
−The myriad of house rules. However, the owners are delightful.

“Lovely relaxing break in Devon”
+The cottage was immaculate, the location was great, nice and relaxing, also great for local walks and amenities. Thanks to Paul and family for a great stay. We will definitely be back at some point.

“It was fine, but I suggest the owners relax the rules a bit.”
+Pleasant cottage on a farm. Decent wi-fi and heating. Clean and tidy.
−This place has a long list of strict rules, most of them obvious (eg don't use the vacuum cleaner outside, don't put tea bags down the toilet), some totally unnecessary (only named guests allowed on the property). Our daughter and her husband who have a caravan nearby were not allowed to visit. No children is fair enough, but adults? There's only a small amount of crockery which makes life difficult as (of course) you're not allowed to use the dishwasher unless it's full. There's a gate at the end of the drive which has to be opened and shut every time you drive in and out. Not pleasant at night in heavy rain. This is all a shame as it's a tidy and comfortable property.

+Good location for our trip to Devon. Property was in a nice, quiet location and was clean and well equipped
−Was chilly on arrival. Maybe good to have heating on before guests’ arrival in colder months. Some softer, more ambient lighting in lounge area would be nice .

+The family were really friendly and couldn't be more helpful. The location was great for travelling to lots of places in North Devon. Holsworthy town has lots of facilities you need for self catering eg supermarkets, petrol station, pubs serving food and also a swimming pool and local market. The accommodation was beautiful and very well equipped and clean.
−Nothing.

“Exceptional”
+Wow, what an amazing 3 nights we have had at the Homestead. The cottage is absolutely beautiful and was immaculate. We visited Spekes Mill, Welcombe Beach, Northcott Mouth Beach, and Holsworthy for some lovely walks. The farm is beautiful and we enjoyed walking the river and the fields. We spent the evenings star gazing and then back inside cosy by the log burner. The cottage is like home from home and has everything you need. Listening to the owl in the evenings was wonderful, too. Thanks, Paul, for a superb New Year's break. The Christmas cake was a lovely touch and delicious, too. We will definitely be back for a summer stay.
−That we didn't book to stay for longer!
