Property code: OC-BEEHI

Stretch out and unwind in this spacious cottage, where all guests, both the two-legged and four-legged kind, are most welcome. The warm spot in front of the wood burner is always a favourite place to unwind after a day of exploring the Devonshire countryside and the Tamar Lakes, situated less than a mile away. In the summer, meanwhile, the enclosed garden with its covered seating area is a wonderful place for everyone to enjoy al fresco meals.

Set within the owner’s 300-acre organic farm, this pretty cottage is a delightful place to stay. A large brick fireplace dominates the cosy living area and is just one example of the fine original features found within the property. One bedroom, a twin, is handily located on the ground floor, so there is no need for your dogs to feel lonely downstairs on their own at night, and there is also a shower room down here too. The bathroom, meanwhile, with its sumptuous roll-top bath can be found on the first floor alongside the two remaining bedrooms: a double and a second twin.

Outside, an enclosed lawn and patio seating area provide space for both human guests and their doggy pals to enjoy the fresh air and quiet surroundings. Step straight out from this property’s front door to wander through the farm and on towards the picturesque surroundings of the Tamar Lakes which are situated within half a mile of the cottage. To the west of the property, meanwhile, some 8 miles away, the beautiful Hartland Heritage Coast awaits, where walkers can follow the South West Coast Path through some simply beautiful coastal landscapes, where children and pets will love jumping through waves and running across sandy beaches.

A delightful spacious cottage and surroundings, tucked away in the countryside. Well equipped and spotlessly clean. So lovely to be around the animals and to see the cows being milked. Great walks for the dogs from the farmhouse. We would thoroughly recommend this farming friendly family.

A beautiful cottage, lovely location but the Satnav gets confused and isn't reliable unless you look for Lympscott farm and not Beehive cottage. The country lanes however are very poor being full of pott holes so take care once off the A39. The cottage offers all the facilities you need even an air fryer. Very comfortable beds and lovely clean toweRead morels and bedding. A nice touch offering logs for the log burner in the lounge when the season is still chilly. Local shops are nearby in Kilkhampton but if you prefer large supermarkets be prepared to travel. The walk across the farm land to The Tamar lakes is wonderful and only takes about 10 minutes, other wise it is a trek in the car or hours of walking. Beaches however are not within walking distance. It was a nice touch having the farm route sign posted from the lake on the trees for the trek back through the short cut. If you are looking for a peaceful out in the country retreat then this it. Even though it is a working farm the noise of the farm itself is not a problem. It is a lovely place. Hide

Friendly hosts. Comfortable accommodation, but watch your head on the beams upstairs. Not the fault of the property but the lanes getting there are terrible - add an extra 5 mins on to your journey to go anywhere or get back. We expected it as its on a dairy farm, but if you have a sense of smell, dont expect to enjoy sitting outside. In March thisRead more wasnt really a problem as it was a bit chilly anyway. Hide

Beehive Cottage was just lovely. It was equipped with everything we needed. Plenty of space for us and our dog. Location on the farm was lovely and surprisingly very quiet, the mooing cows just added to the feeling of being away from the hustle and bustle of normal life.

We had a fantastic time at beehive cottage, the cottage is super clean, beds are comfortable, towels, bedding and logs for the fire are included. This was our 2nd visit to the cottage and I'm sure it won't be our last, would love to get enough people together to be able to stay in the bugger cottage on site too, it looks stunning.

Beehive Cottage was well equipped in general, very clean and well-prepared for us. There are two cattle grids into the residential area of the overall farm. The inner one of these needs attention as it seems there is some subsidence right by it causing quite a bump for the car.

Lovely 15-20 minute walk to a nearby boating lake and bridge across it (actually quite a dramatic a dam, close up) + good caf (but check times). Hide
