  Oh my goodness, where to begin.

  We booked to stay at the Little Silver Owl for our 10 year anniversary (and to get away from the madness that is 2020) and we couldn’t have picked a more perfect place. The hut itself is immaculate and has everything you could possibly need...and more! The quality of everything is insane, from the Eve mattress, to the comfiest pillows I’ve ever slept on (I really need to find out what brand they were) the Nespresso machine and the shower!!! We couldn’t understand how a little hut in the middle of Devon has better heat and water pressure than our flat in London. The views, I haven’t seen anything quite like it, even on a rainy November day they were beautiful. The highlight of our trip was certainly sitting in the hot tub, looking at the stars and hearing the owls hoot to each other, there’s nothing quite like it. Peter and Lisa and the most amazing hosts, even before we arrived we had arranged a little celebration package to be waiting for us. When we arrived Peter told us “we like to leave you alone and give you your space, but if you need anything please give us a text or call”, which is just what we wanted. Peter and Lisa are so welcoming and friendly and as we were leaving we stopped to chat to a woman who worked there (sorry we didn’t manage to catch he name) and she was also so lovely, friendly and wished us a safe journey home. From the moment we arrived to the moment we left it was honestly perfection, I couldn’t fault a single thing. Thank you so much for our incredible stay, we can’t recommend the Little Silver Owl enough and we can’t wait to return!

  What an amazing stay!

  It was a beautiful place to get a way from the hustle and bustle of life. Very picturesque, quiet and a place to enjoy the surroundings of nature. The home was beautiful, very clean, smelled amazing and each part of the property had a very the class atmosphere f someone who knew how to build and make it look amazing. The hot tub was easy to manage needed at least 3 hours to reach the perfect temperature and there was wood and kindling provided. In front of the property was a small seating area where you could have a controlled camp fire/bbq area. Wish I knew this before, would’ve brought extra food and wood to enjoy this more, however the hot tub and blankets provided for the outdoors did not matter. It was so quiet, there was no intrusion of anybody or anything else. Just nature! The car pack for the car is literally 1/2 minutes from the pathway, which makes the property ideal for forgetting you own a car! The cross keys pub was 10 minutes away so n the car and served lovely food and the customer service was amazing. The main town is a 20 minute drive away. We are planning and hoping we can book for our second wedding anniversary, as this made our wedding anniversary very special indeed. Thank you so much for the creativity which you showed in the planning and building of such a beautiful place xxx

  My partner and I went to Bracken Fern this weekend to celebrate her Birthday.

  The cottage was absolutely stunning and surrounded by beautiful scenery. It was in a lovely rural area that was so quiet and very private, so perfect for a peaceful getaway. The cottage was in immaculate condition when we arrived, it was very clean and tidy, and smelled lovely. The cottage had everything we needed, and there was a lot of storage for belongings. The hot tub was a great feature, and the cottage was so well heated even at night so we were cosy throughout our whole stay. Despite its rural location, the cottage is a short drive away from both Darlington and Barnard Castle, so there was plenty to do whilst we were away. It was great that we were able to bring our dog Pip with us also, she had a great time. Laura was such a lovely host, and made our stay as perfect as possible. She kept in regular contact and helped us with everything we needed throughout our stay. Thankyou Laura for such an amazing trip! We have been telling our family and friends all about our stay and advising them to visit. We will certainly be returning to experience it during summertime.

  Such a beautiful little hut in a peaceful and quiet area.

  Bracken Fern is a very warm and welcoming hut with everything you need for a couple of nights away. A bottle of bubbly and delicious biscuits were provided for our arrival, as well as a lit hot tub that was a perfect start to our stay. Everything is well thought out from the amenities to the decorative, final touches. The bed was cozy, shower was nice and hot, the log burner was a lovely touch to bring that extra warmth to the room on a night time. We enjoyed sitting round the fire pit listening to the owls and wildlife on a night time, looking up at the stars in the clear skies and then on a morning, we sat on the deck watching butterflies and dragonflies fluttering around with the only sounds being from singing birds and rustling trees. This is an ideal getaway for anyone looking to escape everyday life and enjoy the company of nature. Would like to thank the owner/s for a beautiful stay and will highly recommend Bracken Fern. We already have friends wanting to visit!

  We had an amazing stay at Silver Owl.

  We were greeted by Peter the owner who is friendly & welcoming. The golf buggy is such a good idea and such fun to take your luggage down to your shepherds hut. On arrival was a generous welcome pack which included homemade baked fresh bread their own honey & eggs. Such a lovely touch as well as wine, fresh milk, butter, the list goes on. The shepherds hut is lovely & spacious with a comfortable king size bed with an Alexa to listen to your favourite music, a Smart Tv and has an oven for cooking if you don’t want to eat out. Everything has been thought of. The hot tub is amazing to relax unwind and take in the lovely surroundings and views whilst listening to the birds tweeting to one another. We had a nice meal at the Bell at Chittlehampton which is only a couple of miles away but you will need to drive their. We defiantly would consider returning again one day.
