Explore both Devon and Cornwall with Rex when you stay at this cottage near Holsworthy. Sleeping six guests, the three-bedroom holiday home is 3.5 miles from the market town and 6 miles from Bude. Well placed for walks along the South West Coast Path, it is also ideal for day trips to Dartmoor. The cottage comes with two outdoor seating areas, where you and Rex can enjoy the fresh air and sunshine and gaze out across the countryside on summer evenings.

Open the front door to find homely accommodation with ample space for all. The kitchen/diner, with its stone floor, is the perfect place to feed Rex and whip up tasty meals for the rest of your party to enjoy at the farmhouse table. The lounge is roomy enough for Rex to join everyone else as they gather together to play games, watch TV or simply indulge in lively conversations after their exciting holiday adventures. There is also a handy utility area and a WC downstairs. Give soft ears a final stroke before bed then take yourself upstairs to one of the the two king-size bedrooms or the twin. Two of these have en-suite bathrooms while one has an en-suite shower room. Have morning coffee and even breakfast out in the fresh air of the seating area while Rex noses about, looking forward to the day to come.

We absolutely loved this farmhouse both adults and children alike. The owner Nikki was fabulous and couldnt have been more friendly and helpful. We loved seeing the horses in the field from almost every window in the house. It was lovely meeting Mabel the friendly dog and Tom the goat. Only about 5 miles from the sea and some lovely local shops I.Read moree butchers and farm shops. Perkins the butchers sells amazing quality meat and has been in business for almost 150 years. Sad to leave especially before one of the mares gave birth to her foal. Hide

Well on arrival we hadn't realised the proximity to the stud farm . How lovely to beable to watch the horses coming in and out and grazing in the field. The welcome hamper was also a very lovely surprise and much appreciated. The beauty of having such pure and natural products on your doorstep was great ... thankyou

It's okay for a quiet holiday, however the weather spoilt it for us. We still went out every day and made the most of it. No local chip shops ect you have to travel to Bude.

We have had a wonderful week is this lovely house. So much space for all 7 of us, 4 young children was not a problem as room so big, outdoor court yard was a real bonus for them to play in. The excitement of the horses in the field and Tom the goat and Mabel the dog was a real hit everyday. We loved the privacy back from the road and only a short Read moredrive to beaches and Bude. We will definitely return to this lovely house with a very friendly host. Welcome pack was so good, best we have had. The laundry room was so useful, everything there was easy to use, oven etc We miss it already. Highly recommend, have stayed in a few houses in Bude and so far this is the favourite, location was just perfect. Lynne, and family. Hide

We had a lovely relaxing week at this beautiful home - it was perfect for our family of five plus 3 dogs. The dog walking field was a huge bonus, local area and beaches great to explore, and the house itself was just the best base for a comfortable holiday. Thank you so much for the wonderful welcome package too!

The cottage is well appointed and the welcome pack was lovely. I have to say the mattresses could do with improving, we could feel the springs through the sheet, a mattress topper might be a good idea. The dog walking field was great and Pero had a great time running round. The cottage is handy for both Bude and Holsworthy and we found a lot of lovRead moreely walks nearby. It would have been nice to see the owners as they were next door. We had an enjoyable stay. Hide
