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!

A lovely spacious house, with a large secure garden for our dog. The hot tub is a brilliant feature. Marion the owner was very helpful and the fresh milk was amazing.

The house was absolutely perfect for a family and friends celebration weekend away. It was so warm and cosy with the heating on when we arrived. Plenty of space for everyone. The kitchen and dining area were perfect to cater for all of us. The TV rooms were comfy. The bedrooms were warm and beds comfortable. Everything was spotless. The hot tub wasRead more a HUGE hit and the main reason we booked really. Mrs Branston was very welcoming and helpful and communication was good. Perfect holiday. Hide

A welcome pack of basics like bread eggs and milk would have been appreciated and a folder wiyh information on the local area.As the WIFI is so bad trying to get directions to the nearest supermarket was hopeless and we got lost trying to find Tiverton.

The hosts were lovely, very attentive and welcoming. We needed assistance with WiFi and hot water and they immediately dealt with the issue. The facilities was everything we needed just required minor updates. Very relaxing weekend away.

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. Nice location and I highly recommend The Globe Inn, Sampford Perrel foRead morer a lovely evening meal. Hide
