We had the most amazing stay. Stunning cottage and the hosts were the loveliest people (our children fell in love with their dogs). It honestly felt like staying with family and the cottage was a home away from home. Would highly recommend to anyone.

We had a lovely stay with our 6 month old daughter. Mark and Alie were amazing and the views are fantastic. I would say you are about an hour from main locations like Woolacombe etc but this did not bother us too much. We would definitely stay again.
