Guests that stayed at this property said
Reviewers consistently mention the property's immaculate condition upon arrival, highlighting its spotlessness and well-kept nature, which indicates a high standard of cleanliness.
The cottage's location is frequently praised for its convenience to local towns and attractions, as well as its peaceful setting, making it an ideal base for exploring and enjoying the area.
Comfort is a recurring theme, with guests finding the beds very comfortable and the living spaces cosy. The presence of underfloor heating and the sound of a nearby brook are noted for adding to the overall comfort.
Facilities are generally well-regarded, with a well-equipped kitchen and ample amenities. However, a few guests suggest minor improvements, such as updating the oven and providing seasonal duvets, which slightly impacts the score.
The provision of welcome items such as milk, wine, and honey is frequently mentioned and appreciated by guests, although it is politely noted that such gifts are subject to availability and not guaranteed.
About this property
This refurbished detached house is situated in Barbrook above the road which leads to Lynton and Lynmouth. Facing lovely woodland around the River Lyn, it is friendly accommodation for families or adults to explore the area. You can either head up twenty steps from the parking area to your front door or use the level access from the road. Inside, through the hall, you will be greeted by the smart oak-floored sitting room with its French windows opening to a patio. The big kitchen is a lovely place to cook whilst you watch TV and then enjoy meals around the central table. Stairs lead up to the three welcoming bedrooms, one en suite and two with TVs. The lawned garden separates the house from the road, and you also have a big patio to one side for sitting peacefully sheltered by woods and flowers. This is wonderful walking, cycling and mountain biking country, or you can enjoy a ride from the local stables. A path by the river leads to a pub in a mile, or head to Lynton and Lynmouth for pubs and restaurants and a ride on the funicular railway. This is a homely and welcoming house for exploring the area at any time of year.
Set directly on the coast at the foot of the Exmoor hills, this charming village draws visitors from near and far. Quaint Lynmouth sits between the river, shore and hills and offers small restaurants, tea rooms and inns.

No closed in area for dogs off the lead, but plenty of areas to walk. Thoroughly recommend staying at this beautiful location. The owners were very helpful, leaving literature for suggestions of things to do in the area. The wine left was very much appreciated.
