On arrival, take the private driveway up to your cosy holiday retreat and step into the welcoming hallway where you’ll find ample storage for those muddy hiking boots and sports gear. Inside, you’ll find cosy country-style interiors with lofty timber beams, and an open-plan living, kitchen, and dining area. Unwind on the squishiest of sofas by the TV and feature fireplace after a long journey while culinary guests show off their skills in the well-equipped kitchen. There’s also a separate TV snug, great for younger guests. Feast and make plans around the inviting dining table which looks out towards country fields and a tennis court prompting your own tennis championships. On sunny afternoons, throw open the patio doors which lead out to your private hot tub where you can ease away busy lifestyles or enjoy social evening chats after another fun day of adventures. As night falls, you’ll find the four cosy bedrooms upstairs, three king-size bedrooms (one en-suite), a twin bedroom, and a family bathroom. Downstairs, there’s also a handy shower room and utility.

Loved this place! We chose this working dairy farm as our young grandsons love tractors and cows!! It didnt disappoint at all. The owners were very friendly and on hand if we needed them. To watch the cows coming down past the end of the drive for milking each evening was a real treat for the little ones.

Great place. Xbox 360 does not work controllers were broken and disk tray does not open. Location is on a working farm, smell was bad sometimes but not terrible. Hot tub and area was lovely. Lots of space for games. Plenty of parking, fitted 5 cars no problem! Rooms are spacious and downstairs wet room is the best shower in the house. Lovely views Read morewith the sunshine. Hide

What a lovely stay, the internet was non existent for the first few days and intermittent after that which was not a bad thing, as we played family games and spent lots of quality time together. One small issue with a bed when we arrived but that was quickly resolved, the farm owners were just lovely and I now appreciate what long days they work!

Great property, very spacious. Plenty of crockery, cutlery, saucepans etc. Hot tub was a good size. Kids loved the tennis court, the xbox and the board games. Quite rural but this suited us. A few nosey cows paid us a visit which was fun! Occasional farm smell but to be expected on a working farm and it didnt bother us. Overall a really great propeRead morerty. Hide

Lovely quiet location, nice walks around but close to Tiverton. Cottage is detached with lots of generous sized rooms and lots of parking. Loved the hot tub and it also has a big lawned area which we didnt realise.
