    The double bed was very queaky. The door in the main bedroom would not shut properly. Kept creaking open. When booking it appeared that there was a bar and outside jacuzzi within the grounds. This was not the case. so a bit disappointed with that.

    Breakfast - NA. Location was good , quiet and relaxing . Cottage was very cosy and clean.

    Nothing not to dislike, a pair of scissors maybe...just a thought for the future as a possibility the rear section would be and I guess could be made into private small gardens with rear door access with slight alteration of kitchen units (costly I know)

    Excellent hard working friendly hosts any minor problems and they were rectified.We stayed in the end terrace cottage which was clean and in quality condition we were offered a free breakfast due to a problem with the water heater booster and was lovely thankyou .we would of loved to of said goodbye when we left but you all must of been busy elsewhere

    Nothing we didn't like to be honest.

    Really cozy little cottage. We were on the end one, in a small row of terraced buildings. Really clean and comfortable. Really quiet area. Perfect location for us near Kilkhampton and Bude. The staff were really friendly and helpful no matter what we needed. Made us feel really welcome. We took our 13 week puppy for his 1st time away and they were very welcoming of him. Dog friendly location set away from the road. Though we stayed in a cottage all the different types of accommodation looked lovely. Really good value for money. The log burner in the lounge area really made the evenings, nice warm and cozy. Will definitely be staying again and the 3 of us can't wait.

    The only niggle we had was that the noise from next door transferred over. I don't think the insulation is very good between buildings.

    The cottage itself was light, clean and lovely. A warm welcome from one of the owners. We loved the wood burner! Up to date hob and oven and kitchen. Perfect for what we needed.

    We were there during a heat wave so maybe a fan in the bedrooms.

    A lovely rural cottage stay. Situated in a quiet court yard in a larger farm setting. Ideally located to visit Bude and beaches (best to bring the car). Child and dog friendly. Great facility, warm welcome from hosts. Relaxed environment with additional extras such as washer, access to an outdoor pizza oven, table tennis, visiting street food truck for dinner, field for playing games and out door camp fire area. Cottage has everything you can need as is very clean

    Not so much a dislike because we loved our stay but a couple of minor points...creaky floors in our cottage and could also hear creaking from the adjoining cottage and dirty marks on the rug in the lounge and on the light pull in the bathroom.

    Lovely, cozy cottage in a beautiful setting. The cottage itself was well equipped and comfortably furnished. Really nice shower with constant hot water and very comfy beds. Very friendly and helpful hosts. Will definitely return.

    The cottages were a real home from home, from the log fire, to the fully stocked kitchen and the sumptuous beds. We could not fault this holiday home. Really well prepped for a young family and the added additions to the amazing street food van twice a week was fantastic. The staff couldn’t do enough for you, and were always on hand for any queries. Really hope we get to come and stay again to experience everything they have to offer all over again.

    WiFi/Internet was awful, and this did cause issues trying to find loctions on the phone/laptop. You had to go outside to get on. Single beds were stiff. (Adult kids said) Note: we did not mention this during our stay, so we could have done this.

    Location as it was close to shops but was very chilled. We didn't use the pizza oven or BBQ, but that was a great feature. Having the dogs with us was a special feature, too.

    The Wi-Fi was really poor. One of the sofas was supported by timber. No broom. Doors to wardrobes were very hard to open and close,as was the bedroom door.

    It was really clean and comfy. That it had a washing machine and that there was one,and a tumble dryer on site. Extra towels given on request. Excellent shower.

    The WiFi ….. there wasn’t first was told it was the weather then told the village was having problems with WiFi but to be honset you only got it when the place was empty of of other residents and it was only a couple of people using it not once was we able to get Netflix or prime video or and any of those channels that the place advertised and having two teenagers with us and internet is all kids know nowadays it was hard going , Next the double bed …. It was like sleeping on a plank of wood for a week every morning woke up with bad back and pain ended up sleeping on sofas as they were more comfortable, after saying to owners about it at end of our stay they said you should of told us sooner we could of bought a new mattress… let’s be in the real world I’m sorry your not gonna just go out and buy one family cos they complain a new mattress! The pizza oven that says can be used was very dirty and covered with cobwebs , dirt and leaves so unless you wanna clean it can’t be used Would be nice to have some leaflets in cottages on places to visit in and around area and place to eat as due to no WiFi you can’t look anything up , and as they do have badminton and tennis items to use it would of been nice to been shown where they are kepted for people to use

    On arrival staff were very friendly and helpful showed us to our cottage which was lovely and clean very tasteful decorated and was so quite there , lovely to see the animals on site and be able to feed them if you wanted to

    The place was so bare I thought it had been robbed. Not even a coffee table. No condiments.. And hardly any cooking dishes. One of the rings on the cooker didn't work at all and I'm really sorry but the bed is crucifyingly painful to sleep on. I know this makes me look mean but the holiday is described as luxury accommodation. Whoever does the cleaning though deserves a medal as it was absolutely spotless. We made our own coffee table from the fruit box behind the door.

    The peace and quiet. Not far into Bude. Good Central location.

    the staff were rude and didn’t give us a tour and demonstration of the facilities around. there was no wifi most of the time as it kept going down. it stated it can with a bath yet only came with one shower. the kitchen had no utensils or even cups.. so had to go and buy our own ti use for the week. we got a noise complaint from the neighbour and they kicked us out a day earlier then we was supposed to leave. this stay was for sure the worst place I’ve ever stayed while being away on holiday. I would not recommend to anyone I know. it was appalling and I waisted good money on an over priced farm house that wasn’t dressed properly.

    where it was based was brilliant, but the place itself was awful.

    Attention to detail. Stained rug. Had seen better days. Filters in the cooker extractor hob needed changing and cleaning. Light bulb in main bedroom needed changing. Paintwork needed a refresh in high traffic areas. All easy to fix, but gave the impression of "cest la vie".

    Quiet location and site. Spacious accommodation. Good as a base for visiting local places of interest. Friendly hosts. The layout of the site is well organised. Firepit, pizza oven and the provision of BBQ equipment all big plusses. The Tallett provided an interesting focal point, and gave the site a Mediterranean feel.

    The mattress was uncomfortable, very soft, the cottage was not as clean as it could be, dusty/dirty floor, a small end of a piece of soap in the shower, the door on the bathroom doesn’t lock, lack of plug sockets for charging phones. The last few days the place became a building site with a crew of builders relaying the paths, building the new yerts (that look amazing) they started work early and in the evening were quite noisy in adjoining cottages. one even opened he door of our cottage by mistake while we were all chilling out after a long day.

    Location was good, staff friendly and very welcoming, the evening around the camp fire was fun, pet friendly and little farm with a variety of animals. washing machine and kitchen facilities good.
