A great holiday location, for all the family. Eleven of us and two dogs fitted into the accommodation easily. The property was clean and spacious and had many extras included, especially in the kitchen. The books and games were a nice touch.Although the choice of local shops was sparse, we shopped on our days out for food and drinks.We would recommend if you’re looking for a quiet and out of the way holiday. A fantastic area to explore and there’s plenty of places I’d never even heard of to visit.Hope to be back again in the future…

Beautiful cottage in a very quiet area. Stunning scenery and walks, but hilly and no shops or amenities within walking distance. Friendly hosts who live locally and have thought of everything to enhance the stay. Would love to return and explore further. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Great cottage in a nice quiet remote location. 10-15 minutes drive from the nearest pub/restaurant. It has everything you need if you are doing your own cooking. Very comfortable. Alison was very welcoming she also drove to Hartland to get me a pint of milk and then later returned with the best loaf of bread. Couldn't recommend enough.
