Excellent location. Lovely old cottage but all mod cons. WiFi very handy as no phone signal (not that it bothered us).

We enjoyed the peace and quiet and being able to walk from the cottage was lovely.

Gorgeous location. Peaceful. Good size cottage. Would stay here again.

Great place to explore, very comfy cottage.

Great short break away. Everything you would need in the cottage.

This was the third time we had stayed at Yenworthy cottage. We particularly like the peaceful atmosphere and the lovely local walks. Excellent for the three dogs.

Fabulous location with great walks from the door and dog friendly. We enjoyed dark skies, peace and quiet, wildlife sightings and glorious picnic spots all close to the cottage. We stocked up with a few essentials in Porlock as nipping to the shops is a round trip of about 12 miles. Thoroughly enjoyed our stay and found the owners very helpful.

Lovely comfortable cottage although more cushions in the lounge rather than the bedrooms would be useful! Appreciated the shower caddies for shampoo etc - very few cottages seem to have these which makes showering awkward. Great showers and comfortable beds which are the main features we look for.

Beautiful location and lovely accommodation, although stairs to second floor are very steep and vary in depth. Amazing walks on the farm and around Lynton/ Lynmouth. There's a little lighthouse between the farm and Lynmouth which is worth a visit for the stunning views, however be aware if you park at the top of the hill and walk down it is a long trek and very steep The walk from Lynmouth to Watersmeet is beautiful and there's a lovely little cafe at Watersmeet. Some super craft shops to visit, don't miss the candle shop as you go out of Lynton towards the Valley of the Rocks. The Valley is also a must visit for the numerous goats and fabulous scenery.

Perfect spot for a genuine get-away break with walks direct from the door. The cottage is ideally positioned for accessing both the coast paths and moorland areas of Exmoor National Park - not to mention the many cafes serving delicious cream teas! We had plenty of space to spread out and the cottage was wonderfully cosy on our return from long days' out exploring. A fabulous week - can't wait to return!

We had a lovely week staying at Yenworthy Cottage...completely away from it all (although Waitrose still deliver!). Cottage was perfect for our family (incl two teenagers) - spacious enough, characterful and fantastic views across the farm and down to the sea. Only things to note are a) steep, narrow tread stairs to master bedroom mean some with mobility issues may have problems and b) the only shower is in the master bedroom ensuite. We really enjoyed spending time down on the rocky beach that is (very steep 25 min descent and ascent) which we had completely to ourselves. We also enjoyed Lynmouth (excellent mini golf and ice creams/coffee from the cafe in Lower Lyndale car park), the lovely beach at Lee Bay which you can access via walking through the Valley of Rock or drive to and the walk from Withypool to Tarr Steps with a fantastic lunch at Tarr Farm Inn. Overall, a super value cottage that we'd happily return to

Fantastic location and a beautiful cottage. Wonderfully isolated and quiet. Great walks from the farm and a great location to travel onto the moor. Would visit again

We loved staying at Yenworthy Cottage over Christmas. It was cosy and warm. Christmas tree provided and we brought some decorations so looked really nice. Comfortable beds and all we needed. Lovely touch to have the flowers and a bottle of wine!

The most wonderful situation and the view is definately worth more than 5 stars, amazing!! The only thing I would say is that the stairs to the ensuite bedroom are very very steep so if anyone is even slightly dodgy on their legs it could be a problem. Having said that my mum and dad coped very well and really loved their room and the cottage. We would'nt hesitate to recommend it and certainly hope to come back again.

Lovely remote, cosy cottage

Lovely cottage in a great position . Loved evening walks spotting deer. I did ask if there was a shower in the bathroom on first floor and I was told by someone called Maeve that there was. There wasn't. If there had been more than 2 of us it would have been a problem as one shower in an ensuite is not really enough with adults especially. We will probably come back but unless just 2 of us, probably one of the other properties.

absolutely beautiful location

Beautiful location, with walks straight from the door. Very comfortable accommodation. Thanks for a lovely, restful holiday.

Sunsets were fantastic. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here at Yenworthy Cottage. The house was very comfortable. Great to have a washing machine and dishwasher in the kitchen and utility area. Brilliant showers. We all slept well. The garden was perfect for playing quoits and relaxing in the sun. Brilliant, and strenuous walk down and back to the beach, but worth it. So much wildlife seen on the farm especially a wonderful variety of birds. Particularly loved being there when the lambs were bleating! Ideally located for Lynton and Lynmouth, Porlock and Porlock Weir. The Valley Of The Rocks coast path was spectacular. We plan to return in 2024. Here's to our next The Best Of Exmoor experience.

Lovely quiet yet convenient location with lots of walking from the cottage and Porlock a short drive away.

An atmospheric cottage for an early autumn break. Such a peaceful location with many great walks.

We had a lovely family week (with teenagers and two dogs) walking and exploring the local area and Exmoor generally. The cottage was the perfect base; so warm and cosy (such thick stone walls!), plentiful supplies of hot water, excellent cooking and bathroom facilities and a lovely sitting/dining room. We very much appreciated being able to take the dogs on walks through all the farm fields. The stunning scenery and coastal outlooks were enhanced by several days of lovely autumnal sunshine. We will heartily recommend Yenworthy to friends. Many thanks!

Beautiful house, comfortable beds and clean. Stunning tranquil setting. Fabulous walks. Definitely made the right choice of property.

This cottage is in the most idilic and peaceful location, where the only noise you can hear are the birds and the odd fly! Great walking from your door step so perfect if you have dogs. Good access to all other areas of Exmoor too, so a great base for a holiday.

This cottage would have scored a full 5 stars on every aspect had it not been for some minor points which could easily be resolved, however that aside, it was generally clean, comfortable, dog friendly and good value. We arrived during a particularly cold and wet May, and although there was a plentiful supply of logs there were no other tools to light the woodburner. It would have been helpful to have known this in advance particularly as the website says that kindling, matches etc would be available. Despite other minor issues/irritations which we have raised separately, this cottage redeems itself in countless other ways. It is in the most idyllic location, with stunning scenary, great walks from the door and free access (as long as you close the gates) to all the surrounding farmland. The walk to Glenthorne Beach is a must as but be prepared for a steep ascent to the cottage on your return. There was a plentiful supply of hot water, great showers, comfy beds and a well equipped kitchen. Once we had located the heating thermostat and purchased kindling etc., the cottage did become warm and cosy (as per other reviews) in what was an unusually cold, miserable wet May. The cottage was very dog friendly with sturdy carpets and a well enclosed garden. It is also well positioned on the North Devon Coast between Lynton and Porlock both of which are beautiful. Overall with just a bit more attention to detail Yenworthy Cottage could be 'Excellent' rather than just 'very good' and we do intend to return hopefully at a time when the weather is a bit more hospitable.

We had a wonderful time. The location is amazing - tranquil and secluded, but with a working farm all around, and different views of sea and land in every direction. Lots of walks directly from the house. The cottage itself is very comfortable - and we appreciated the wood-burning stove. Thank you so much!

Great location to explore Exmoor, walks on the doorstep, no need to drive far.

Was a beautiful clean cottage. I suggest taking walking boots as the walks are quite hilly in places. Recommend doing a big food shop on the way as no local shops in walking distance.

What a delightful stay. The location is very unique, being farmland very close to the coast. The view from the left-hand side of the cottage is amazing. Lovely walks around the farm itself. Wonderful sunsets. The cottage is what you would expect of an older property. The kitchen is modern and very well-equipped with a table and chairs. The lounge/dining room is spacious. Bedrooms are nicely done and ours had lots of clothing storage. All very clean and enjoyable to stay in. Just beware that the stairs are narrow in depth and that the bedrooms on the second floor are steps down and steps up to the second floor bathroom - so if you are a bit wobbly on your feet, this is not the property for you. The property is perfect for dogs as the garden is fully enclosed. It was lovely to receive a daily visit from one of the very friendly and extremely well-behaved farm dogs. Just one final thing: if you enjoy being the only holidaymakers on your holiday property, also be aware that the right hand side of the cottage in the photo is inhabited by farm people so the garden is not private. Also, there are two holiday properties bordering the cottage which take large groups. This did not bother us however but it is worth knowing.

the location the cottage and lovely Hazel were absolutely five star.It is a very difficult time at the moment with the country almost on lock down with the Coronovirus but the area is so isolated from towns and cities we felt completely safe.We hope to return later in the year if you have a three day break available.

Loved the place - beautiful house and amazing location.

Beautiful cottage and idyllic peaceful location with stunning views. Everything provided for a relaxing stay. Some very quaint villages locally, would recommend it for anyone wanting peace and quiet. Thankyou
