  The cottage was OK, we were aware the owners may not be there and if the case key would be in the door and this was the case.

  It was disappointing that having read previous reviews there was no welcome pack like we had had in other cottages. The property would benefit from a banister attached to the wall re the staircase. The information folder read more like a rules and regulation folder which was off putting, most people renting a cottage would be respectful anyway and not leave appliances on or the heating on unless needed. The TV was rather temperamental as either the aerial needed adjusting or the TV was in its way out as there was a lot of interference on it in the evenings. The fridge freezer was also noisy and could be heard downstairs in the bedroom. The location was peaceful and lovely views across the fields. Only approach via the road from Great Torrington which is opposite the church as all other approaches the roads are very poor quality and really shake the car and occupants.

  We had a good time, the hosts are lovely and it's a great place to stay - the only reason it doesn't have a full smiley face regarding facilities is that we always book a place where internet/wifi is available.

  We won't go anywhere that has not wifi because we use internet photo editing software, I have to be in touch with my work and for many other reasons. We were very disappointed (and had to use my husband's phone as a hot spot for two days) because the internet was patchy and intermittent - you can get internet but you have to be in a certain place in the building which isn't useful if you want to use your laptop to edit photos that you've taken! The laptop doesn't easily perch on the lovely beams!! But having said all that, we would like to reiterate that the place is beautiful and the hosts were very helpful and friendly. We did speak to them about this issue and they told us how they hope to resolve the issue in the near future. That would make it a 10/10!

  Our second visit and equally enjoyable.

  Wonderful location for peace and quiet. Found 2 interesting local sites to explore on foot (short walks) - the reservoir which can be walked around (and fished I believe, with rod licence), though take great care with children, and a site of historical interest (left down the lane a short distance to a parking area and sign though no need to take the car!). A shortish walk through the woods to the site itself (red markers no longer present). Information boards explain history. Otherwise property location is perfect from which to explore coastal locations north and west. Accommodation well appointed. Friendly and helpful owners.

  The cottage was wonerdful, obviously built to a high specification.

  It was warm, cosy and well equipped. The beds were extremely comfortable and together with the quiet surroundings, I had the best nights sleep I have had in years! We were fortunate enough to visit when there was no moon in the sky, because of the cottages location, the milky way was clearly visible in the sky at night, unfortunately there are not many places left in the uk where you can see nature at it's most awesome.

  We were looking for a quiet countryside base but with good accessibility to the North and North-West coasts.

  The cottage provided that with the bonus of genuine comfort. Very happy with our choice. This was a deliberately planned relaxed holiday, not trying to get to all the attractions in one visit, so it was important the cottage could provide a peaceful and attractive setting in its own right. It ticked all the boxes and we enjoyed our experience. Recommended.
