"We really enjoyed our stay. We were walking the SWCP and were glad to stop earlier on this leg. (Just dont take the road to the lighthouse and then climb the scree over the hill: steep and dangerous). The room was excellent. Comfortable. Delicious dinner down stairs, and lucky for us on our night, a live singer providing a musical background atmosphere. She was lovely, and just the thing to elevate the evening to next level."

Large Period House set in Ancient Woodland in Exmoor National Park near Lynmouth

10/10 Excellent

"We had a fantastic stay at Oaklands with extended family for my son’s 21st birthday. It was perfect for our needs. We loved the large round table that seats 14. The access is slightly steep but was managed with some assistance by my 87 year old grandmother. We managed a game of darts one evening in the barn. The grounds and surrounding areas really are stunning. Peter was most helpful and access and instructions were clear. We managed some surfing, paddle boarding and beautiful hikes around Valley of the rocks/Watersmeet during our weekend away. I would definitely book again."

Cottage by the East Lyn River in the heart of Exmoor National Park near Lynmouth

The location is stunning as it sits right on the river and we had the most wonderful daily dog walks and runs to Watersmeet and the beautiful national trust cafe there. The cottage was very cosy and comfortable with everything you could need for a relaxing stay. Our host Lucy was very helpful and friendly. We would highly recommend staying and would love to return. Thank you for a lovely stay c"

Riverside Cottage, Brendon

10/10 Excellent

"Clean cosy cottage. Open fire a nice feature but central heating worked well too. Comfortable bed, maybe a bedside lamp for both sides good idea. Everything we needed in kitchen except a tea pot! Great location for exploring Exmoor and coastal walks. The Staghunters Inn just down the road serves excellent local beer, great pub grub and friendly staff. Looking forward to coming and staying again."

Stunning coastal home with panoramic sea views in Porlock Weir - 6 bed / 6 bath

10/10 Excellent

"Owlscombe is without doubt, one of the best holiday rentals we've stayed at. We were a party of 8 adults for an annual get together. It was immaculately clean and extremely well equipped. We took a few kitchen utensils with us, as we were cooking on a few days, but we really didn't need to. Stuart thought of everything. Of course the icing on the cake were the magnificent views. from the kitchen/family area.... just stunning! We all hope to return in the future."
