Very pleasant stay and Lynda was a great host. Highly recommend this lovely cottage - clean and comfortable in very nice setting, with a lovely garden and woods. Our kids especially enjoyed it. Lots to see and do in the nearby area - we visited Westward Ho! for surfing lessons at easter time, brisk but fun!

Our stay was nothing but perfect - from the welcome bundle of crisps and local cider to kids' games, comfort of all the beds and the picturesque grounds that we got to enjoy every day as part of our rental. The hosts were non intrusive hit easily contactable should we need anything before or during our stay. The grounds were kept exceptional as was the cottage (aside from a few places where dust had settled e.g. in cupboards but that was very very minor). Highly recommend and the area of course is so tranquil yet easily accessible to nature filled places and adventure parks for the little ones. Thank you!

Disliked: Location
Accommodation was ok, it could do with a bit of updating decor wise. You will definitely need a car to get around as it is quite remote. Hosts were very responsive when we asked them about the heating which they had to adjust for us as there was no way of controlling it ourselves. Towels definitely need an upgrade. Very pet friendly.

Lovely quiet weekend

We had a lovely peaceful weekend away here. Lynda was very welcoming even though we arrived 5 hours late due to motorway closure. Nice secluded woodland for the dogs to roam about in. Well equipped cottage and comfortable beds which is always a bonus.

Tranquil Relaxing Stay

A lovely location with full use of the grounds which we greatly enjoyed, strolling with our dog around the pond and the meadow and sitting out in the secluded garden when the weather permitted. The house was comfortable and well equipped, and best of all, peaceful. The house is well located for visiting the countryside and north coast of Devon. A slight quibble, in that, on a cold wet first day, the house was not warm enough, but that was quickly remedied with the owners, who were very helpful throughout.

We had an absolutely fantastic, cosy, and memorable stay at this beautiful Vrbo property in North Devon.Our hosts, Linda and David, were superb. They were incredibly attentive and provided a useful recommendation for a stop on our return journey. Their warm welcome and attentiveness made us feel instantly at home.The cottage itself is delightful: perfectly equipped and wonderfully cosy and warm, even in late October. The setting is ideal—a quiet, rural retreat with lovely gardens and grounds, perfect for disconnecting and unwinding.As for amenities, the electric car charging port was a great, useful feature. It allowed us to charge our EV seamlessly, keeping the car charged for our daily excursions to various National Trust properties.If you're seeking a relaxing, high-quality escape with genuine and attentive hosts, we highly recommend this property!

Just got back from a lovely peaceful trip, the cottage had everything we needed, beds were really comfy and great quality. The hosts were friendly, had some great recommendations and were there if needed. We felt very welcome to explore the grounds, the gardens were beautiful and every corner there was something to see, like a ‘Secret Garden’, me and my Lab had big smiles on our faces exploring, especially the meadow. Hope to visit again, thanks for hosting us xxx

Great short stay

The house was clean and fully equipped. It was a bit on the chilly side in early April, but we lit the fire a couple of times which really helped to warm the cottage up. The owners were really helpful, friendly and accommodating, and it was reassuring they were just next door to assist with anything. We had a great few days exploring the coast mainly and the cottage was a fantastic base for us!

So relaxing

No Place really is like no other place! Surrounded by beautiful countryside and so very quiet and peaceful. Great touristy spots within driving distance, eg Bideford, Barnstaple, Woolacombe and Ilfracombe. Would recommend one of the local pubs, The Globe Inn, at Beaford too - great food! We hope to visit No Place again.
