A hidden gem

Spoilt for comfortable roomy rooms and they're all fitted out with interesting items (I think Andy's been watching Salvage Hunters 🤣). We sat outside in the evening to watch incredible sunsets over the sea. Also, it's all Exmoor National park, so walking is a must. Only gripe was the oven wasn't getting up to heat very well. We would definitely go again.

Fabulous

Property was amazing- clean, very well equipped, decorated beautifully and plenty of space for the extended family. The views were stunning and the outdoor space was wonderful, keeping the children entertained exploring the grounds and in the games barn. Owner was very friendly and helpful. Would whole heartedly recommend and hope to return.

We weren’t able to stay this year because of the lock down. However, we stayed a couple of years ago and had a wonderful visit. Great property and beautiful location.
