Please note: This property has a natural water supply from a borehole and there are 3 fishing lakes in the garden and grounds, 150 yards away.. In the grounds of the owners’ very well-presented and maintained fishing venue, these three holiday properties (refs 29794, 30788 and 31308) are well-equipped to ensure a restful holiday. Kingfisher is a detached, single-storey cottage, sleeping six guests, The Lodge is set over two floors and sleeps four guests, and Mole is semi-detached and also sleeps four guests. The cottages have their own enclosed, lawned garden with sitting-out area and views across the beautiful grounds. There are two well-stocked coarse fishing lakes at Riverton which are included in the price of your stay, as well as a third beautiful lake (members only).

If you are not fishing, there is still plenty to do in this lovely part of Devon. Located just outside the regional town of Barnstaple, the cottages are in an ideal location to explore this stunning part of the British Isles. A few miles away, you have access to some of the best beaches in the country including Woolacombe and Saunton. The nearest beach at Instow is ideal for children or just a great place to walk off life’s stresses, and then enjoy a meal or drink at one of the pubs and restaurants along the front. The town of Barnstaple is only a short drive away and has most amenities you may require as well as a busy high street and market. There are numerous places of interest close by including the RHS gardens at Rosemoor, Dartington Crystal and the historic fishing village of Clovelly. For the younger ones, a visit to the Big Sheep or Milkyway is a good option. There is walking on Dartmoor or hire a bike and cycle the Tarka Trail. Clay pigeon shooting can be organised by prior arrangement with the owner. Shop, pub and restaurant 1½ miles.

The Perfect holiday and wonderful location for families who want to use the fishing lakes and nearby
The Perfect holiday and wonderful location for families who want to use the fishing lakes and nearby beaches and places of interest. The only small suggestion would be to get a WIFI extender as I planned to work but unfortunately the WIFI signal was far to weak for my chromebook lap to work at all. Which was quite frustrating. It may already explain this in the details, so sorry if I've missed this. But if not I would consider making this clear. Thank you. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

The down points about our stay were not about the owners... bad WiFi and bats.... the property itself was super clean, fully equipped and had the most beautiful grounds. Ourselves and our dog absolutely loved it .....we have already booked for next year. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

Clean and well sized cottage.

Clean and well sized cottage.  Easy driving distance from some of the best beaches in the area and some dramatic scenery.  Although you are quite close to a major road, the cottages have a feeling of remoteness. Even if you are not interested in fishing, the lakes on site would make a very nice evening walk.  The owners, who live on site, are very friendly and attentive.

We had a lovely week at the lodge despite awful weather. Great facilities for dog owners like us, lovely walk around the fishing lodges, great enclosed garden and a private field for them to have a run. The cottage was spotlessly clean, and generally well equipped and comfortable for an afternoon indoors when the rain got too much. The payment cards for electricity and heating are a bit of a faff, and I would suggest more crockery to avoid having to put on a half empty dishwasher. Some basic cleaning materials would be good and it's the only time in recent years were there was absolutely no welcome pack, not even a pint of milk. The double bed wasn't particularly comfortable and the pillows a bit tired. However, none of this would stop us booking this cottage again if we were to return to north Devon and can understand why people seem to return again and again.

Nice location although there is some traffic noise from the A361. The overall presentation of the property was good but the double bed was very uncomfortable and the microwave was in a very poor condition. We did like the private garden for our dog and the walks around the lakes.

The Lodge is set in a beautiful location with excellent walks around the fishing lakes ,sadly the tv and w/f has little or no reception which is a pain if you are watching a programme and the screen goes blank quite a lot especially during the day .comfort wise it has everything you want for a stay ,Mrs Robinson is a complete gem and has any info you may need to enjoy your stay ,a must to be tried is the dinners at the local JACK RUSSELL pub, excellent and above and better meal than most we have been too .yes for a quiet break I would recommend it to my family and friends with a big plus that you can take your pets along as well .
