"Very comfortable and well equipped cottage. We saw virtually nothing of the owners but were confident that they were there if needed. A good location if you want a peaceful break away from it all."

This delightful cottage is nestled on a non-working farm which occupies an outstanding rural position in the sought after Blackdown Hills, between the villages of Hemyock and Culmstock. Designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, this is widely regarded as some of the most attractive countryside in Devon. The cottage is a single-storey barn conversion with a contemporary finish. There is a large living area and the bedroom has patio doors which open up onto the open countryside behind the property. There is a sunny sitting-out area to the front of the cottage. The property is reached by a 500 yard farm track ensuring your privacy. If you are looking for peace and quiet, and space to relax and unwind in an unspoilt rural setting, this is an ideal place for a getaway at any time of year. A network of public footpaths directly from the farm and quiet roads for cycling make for a perfect holiday. Lambs Cottage is also an ideal base from which to explore the surrounding delights of Devon and Somerset.



The farm sits on the edge of a scattered hamlet of cottages and farms, approximately 1¾ miles from Culmstock and approximately 2 miles from Hemyock. Both villages have a pub serving food, and a convenience store. The market towns of Wellington and Honiton (with nearby Ottery St Mary – the birthplace of Coleridge) offer a range of local independent shops, cafés and gift shops, and are within a 15-minute drive. Wellington has a farmers’ market twice a month and Honiton is particularly renowned for its antique shops and weekly market which runs the length of the High Street. Taunton with its County Cricket Ground, race course, museum and well regarded Brewhouse Theatre and Arts Centre, lies within 13 miles. The cathedral city of Exeter, with its beautiful historic quarter, quay, botanic gardens, cafés, restaurants and excellent shopping, is only 24 miles.



Within a 40-minute drive to the south you can discover the Jurassic Coast, a World Heritage Site, with pretty coastal towns and villages such as the acclaimed Lyme Regis, Seaton, Beer and Sidmouth with their family friendly beaches. Walk along the coastal path and take in the dramatic coastal scenery. At Seaton, a trip on the tramway is a must, visit the caves at Beer, or have a crab sandwich on the beach. For a classic seaside town, visit Sidmouth with its many shops, pubs, restaurants and award-winning ice cream parlours. Within a 40-minute drive to the west, discover the stunning Exmoor National Park with its hidden villages and beautiful hill walks. There are also many National Trust places close by to explore such as Knightshayes Court near Tiverton. Beach 23 miles. Shop, pub and restaurant within 1¾ miles.

We enjoyed our stay at Lambs Cottage. We expected it to be rural and it was , very quiet and the deer coming outside the bedroom window was a bonus. Our only criticism was there was no plug in the bathroom sink so my husband who wet shaves had to use the kitchen sink to shave. Other than that great stay. Take warm clothes though as being rural the cottage can feel chilly.

Lambs Cottage is very comfortable and well equipped. The weather was cool during our visit so we appreciated having central heating for chilly evenings and mornings! It is in an extremely peaceful location, surrounded by lovely countryside, but this means that local amenities are few and far between. We were able to watch and listen to all the birds which visited the garden. We very much appreciated the welcome pack left by the owners. We were sorry to leave.

Thoroughly enjoyed staying at Lamb's Cottage, perfect for two.

Thoroughly enjoyed staying at Lamb's Cottage, perfect for two. Had forgotten how narrow some of the Devon roads can be so initial drive to the cottage was scary at times. The cottage was spacious and everything was well planned. Particularly impressed with the kitchen, small but perfectly formed, including a dishwasher and microwave etc. and well stocked with cutlery pots and pans.The thoughtfulness of providing basic items such as salt, pepper, teabags, milk, washing up liquid, pan scrub and tea towel was much appreciated along with the welcome pack that included wine, muesli and biscuits amongst other items. The bathroom equally well equipped. We liked the separate dressing room that acted as a walk in wardrobe. The only niggle we had was the mattress, for us it was too soft but after a day or two the Devon air helped us sleep like logs each night. The location was very peaceful and we enjoyed breakfasting outside and watching the many birds. Would happily return to such a lovely cottage in beautiful Devon.

We had a great bank holiday at Lambs cottage in its nice tranquil setting. The cottage felt very private and had great access to the Blackdown Hills AONB for walking. It wasn't too far away from the coast for a full day out either. The inside was well furnished with a good selection of DVDs to fall asleep to after a long day out in the open air.
