Experience a slower pace of life with all your favourite people plus two pups at this spacious detached house that overlooks a delightful working dairy farm. Get that tail wagging with coastal walks, hilltop strolls and miles of woodland trails within the five official Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty. Once the legs have hit their limit, return to soak in the hot tub in peace and quiet.

Perfect for dog lovers with stone floors and a fenced-in area of garden, this welcoming home has character-a-plenty with exposed beams and a feature stone fireplace. Kick off muddy boots and towel dry damp fur in the hall to trot to the kitchen for a cuppa and a doggy treat or two. Light and bright with views over the fields, relax with a good book as your canine chum potters in and out to the garden through the double doors. Perhaps squeeze in a quick round of tennis or a game of fetch before indulging in an al fresco meal as your happy hound sniffs and snouts around the garden. And as the night draws in, cuddle up on the sofa in the lounge to watch a film, as your chum snoozes on his favourite blanket.

Visit the nearby pretty villages of Bickleigh (10 miles) and Tiverton (6 miles) or try the quiet walk along the River Exe between the two, through pretty woodland. The historic Dumpton Fort (21 miles) is one of the most striking hills in the beautiful Otter Valley, and Hembury Hillfort (16 miles) is the finest prehistoric hillfort in Devon. Explore the woodland walks at Knightshaye Court (6.5 miles) or tackle the steep climb to get that tongue lolling at Buzzard Woodland (9 miles). Hit Branscombe beach (24 miles) for the day to chase the waves!

Loved this place! We chose this working dairy farm as our young grandsons love tractors and cows!! It didnt disappoint at all. The owners were very friendly and on hand if we needed them. To watch the cows coming down past the end of the drive for milking each evening was a real treat for the little ones. Plenty of kitchen equipment, lots of hot waRead moreter, comfy beds, plenty of space. Remember you are in the countryside, be prepared for low wi fi, bit of mud and a few insects. We hope to return!!

Please note, the Internet did not work for the whole week we were there so we had to use Tiverton library. The property should be rated as 3 star as it is not as well-equipped or clean as the other 4 star properties we have stayed in with Holiday Cottages. However, good hot tub.

Great place. Xbox 360 does not work controllers were broken and disk tray does not open. Location is on a working farm, smell was bad sometimes but not terrible. Hot tub and area was lovely. Lots of space for games. Plenty of parking, fitted 5 cars no problem! Rooms are spacious and downstairs wet room is the best shower in the house. Lovely views Read morewith the sunshine. Hide

What a lovely stay, the internet was non existent for the first few days and intermittent after that which was not a bad thing, as we played family games and spent lots of quality time together. One small issue with a bed when we arrived but that was quickly resolved, the farm owners were just lovely and I now appreciate what long days they work! IRead moret was lovely seeing the cows come down to be milked daily. All in all we had a fab stay and would love to come back again. Hide

Great property, very spacious. Plenty of crockery, cutlery, saucepans etc. Hot tub was a good size. Kids loved the tennis court, the xbox and the board games. Quite rural but this suited us. A few nosey cows paid us a visit which was fun! Occasional farm smell but to be expected on a working farm and it didnt bother us. Overall a really great propeRead morerty. Hide

Lovely quiet location, nice walks around but close to Tiverton. Cottage is detached with lots of generous sized rooms and lots of parking. Loved the hot tub and it also has a big lawned area which we didnt realise.

Great house with hot tub . But situated right in working farm so noisy early mornings. Very remote . House needs some upgrades with windows which were very draughty It was an ideal house for our large family Christmas get together with plenty of parking and we did enjoy it
