The cottage was exceptionally appealing, situated within a scenic environment that exuded tranquillity. It was equipped with all necessary amenities to ensure a comfortable stay during our brief visit. Our decision to select this location was primarily motivated by a desire to avoid the typical New Year’s Eve festivities, which tend to include disruptive fireworks that unsettle our dogs. The cottage provided an ideal sanctuary, enabling us to enjoy a peaceful retreat while allowing our pets to remain calm in an environment free from the usual celebratory noise. This setting not only facilitated relaxation but also allowed us to appreciate the natural beauty of the surroundings during our stay.

The primary concern regarding the cottage was the lack of a backyard area. A garden at the rear would have been desirable; however, the available space is located at the front of the cottage, which is situated on the main road. Nevertheless, this was not a significant issue, as the traffic on the road is relatively light.

The old coach house is a very well appointed, everything you need for a self catered break away. A cosy multi-fuel burner and a large sofa creates a cosy and relaxing atmosphere. Fully fitted kitchen with everything needed. A very quiet location is welcomed compared to a busy city location.

Street light just outside the bedroom.

Location was very quiet and the pub behind was great, excellent food and a warm welcome.

The property was lovely and comfortable, all the modern amenities you could want. An excellent kitchen, comfy bed, and lovely bathroom. The lounge has a nice big sofa and a good TV, even a log fire if you fancy it. There's a second toilet/ washroom in the upstairs bedroom, so there's nothing lacking in the excellent facilities provided. Plenty of opportunities to walk along the 'Tarka Trail' just adjacent to the cottage. The grub at the local pub is ok and a nice selection of Beers, it's only a hundred yards walk from the cottage. We really enjoyed our stay of 6 nights, which we used as a base for visiting the many National Trust properties in Devon. Thank you Mark & Elaine for a very well presented property 👍

Please do not read this as a negative comment. We knew before we booked that there was no outdoor space like a rear or enclosed garden, but we worked around it. This may be an important consideration for renters, so as not to be disappointed with your choice when booking, bear this in mind. This didn't detract from this excellent and well looked after rental.

Absolutely beautiful, well equipped kitchen very comfortable bed, lovely log burner kept the whole house warm, very nice upstairs toilet.lovely people in the village.

The property is absolutely fantastic only problem being the turning point for everyone.

Stunning location, house kept to very well standards.

Bigger on the inside, The Old Coach House is a deceptively spacious cottage situated on the Tarka Trail. Fitted with a well equipped kitchen, en-suite and cosy bedrooms and beautiful well lit lounge with stunning views, it was the perfect place to explore the North Devon countryside and nearby beaches. The most we had to travel was an hour to reach our various destinations which included Westward Ho! Woolacombe beach, Bude, Lynford Gorge, Buckland Abbey to name but a few of the beautiful places. We were able to easily adapt our plans due to the inclement weather as there was so much to see. We would also recommend popping into the Duke of York which was situated within the village of Iddesleigh. Lovely atmosphere and good food enjoyed on our first and last night. We would recommend getting your groceries delivered and have refreshments at the Duke of York whilst you wait.

Very cosy & comfortable. The dog's loved lying in front of the log burner after their adventures.
