    Meeting oncoming traffic on the single track roads leading to the property.

    The comfortable private facilities and being looked after really well.

    We had a 3 fantastic nights at Brook Farmhouse. It is a charming cottage. The king room was huge. Very quiet location. We enjoyed spending evenings in the living room by the fire place. Penny and Paul were great hosts and managed all our queries with smile. The breakfast was great specially the apple juice!

    Having to leave so soon. Ours was a short stay to break the journey west.

    On our arrival we were greeted with tea and home made cake taken in the small garden, amid a busy community of birds and insects. A wonderful old farm cottage occupying a lovely corner of typically close Devon countryside; comfortable, homely, with the reassuring steady tock from the grandfather clock standing guard in the hallway. This really was home from home.

    A beautiful home and very welcoming hosts. We enjoyed the peace and quiet of the country, and relatively easy access to nearby sights. We didn't want to leave.

    We prefer en-suite bathrooms

    Excellent Breakfast. Access is down a long, badly pot-holed single track road. Cottage is very remote, which is lovely, but too far to walk down to the pub or the village shop. The bathroom is shared with other rooms. The local pub is fine and does reasonable pub grub. Hosts are lovely and friendly. Assess to the bedrooms is up a very steep and narrow winding staircase.

    There wasn’t anything we didn’t like. It was very hot whilst staying there and an option of a simple sheet would have been most welcome as an alternative to the duvet. We should have asked but didn’t but I feel sure if we had Penny would have obliged.

    Everything was perfect. Cleanliness was top notch. The rooms were dressed beautifully. Everything one could wish for was provided. Welcomed with tea and cake in the garden on arrival. We would certainly stay again if in the locality. Easy access to Exeter.
