A fantastic cottage, comfortable and cosy yet also spacious, with great views. A short walk into the village - it is down a steep hill so anyone with mobility problems might struggle, but otherwise I'd definitely recommend it. It's a great base to explore the area from, lots of great walks, and Lynton and Lynmouth are beautiful villages. We loved iRead moret and would stay again Hide

We had a delightful stay despite the bad weather. The cottage is decorated and furnished to such a high standard, it was giving us inspiration for our own home renovations! The view is amazing and well worth the short incline walk from the shops, cafes and restaurants of Lynton. The bed was so big and comfortable, really did not want to leave. If wRead moree weren't about to have a baby (it's not massively child friendly) we would book again in a heartbeat - maybe in a few years time! Hide

Parking was tight due to men working on the narrow lane out front, but normally it wont be a problem. The house is wonderful, cosy, and has fantastic views over Lynton and Lynmouth. We loved our stay.

Stylishly refurbished cottage with gorgeous bedrooms, well-equipped kitchen and amazing views! Log-burner makes for cosy evenings and if the weather is kind, the terraced quirky garden makes for fun relaxing, though probably not suitable for very young children! Loved our stay in Siskin Cottage and felt very at home cooking Sunday lunch with deliRead morecious local produce. Hide

Beautiful and thoughtfully equipped cottage in a great location. Felt very welcome here with our teens and dog, with plenty of room for everyone. Amazing walks and runs from the door, and we did not tire of the fantastic views.
