Fiddlesticks Reviews

Alex

We really enjoyed our stay overall. The cottage was lovely, though the bath's a bit rusty and could do with replacing. Also, the shower pipe needs some attention. We think the pool should open earlier and close later. Still, thanks for a great week!

Emily Carter

We loved the spot, just a short 15-minute drive to the coast with stunning views all around. The indoor pool was warm and perfect for kids, plus there was a playground and games room. Our cottage was cosy, well-equippedand ideal for a couple. Honestly, we couldn't find much to complain about!

Oliver

The place was charming, maybe a bit smaller than we thought, but the location was perfect. The pool was a lovely bonus, though the rooms felt a tad tired.

Jamie

The cottage was really cosy and had everything we needed. It's perfect for exploring North Devon, especially with the pool, saunaand jacuzzi just a short walk away. We'd definitely visit again!

Jenna

We had a lovely little holiday with my son! The place was just gorgeous, the views were amazingand the facilities were excellent. The staff were so welcoming and friendly too.

Sarah

What a lovely little cottage for two! We really enjoyed our stay. It shares an indoor swimming pool with some other cottages, which was a nice touch.

Mark

What a lovely place to stay! It's not too far from attractions, with loads to do and see. The views were absolutely stunning and the people were friendly, plus having the dog around was just great. The inside was very clean and had everything we needed. We will definitely be back for a second time, thanks for a lovely stay!

Clara

Fabulous accommodation with everything thought of! The pool and hot tub are a real treat. Beautiful location with breathtaking views. It was just a bit too far to walk to the nearest pub otherwise absolutely perfect.

Emily

Lovely little cottage - super cosy! Fantastic location with stunning views. The communal games room and pool/hot tub are great. There's a decent range of basic cooking utensils. While it's dog friendly, we struggled to find a secure area (far from farm animals and horses) to let our dogs off the lead, which was tricky since they prefer to toilet off the lead. Also, there was no info about any routes on the farm for walking dogs on lead, so we had to drive elsewhere for that. Not a big issue in North Devon, but something to keep in mind.

Emma

What a lovely cottage! It's perfect for the dogs, really nice and peaceful. Plus, it has an indoor pool, saunaand hot tub, along with a games room. We had a fantastic week here and would definitely go back!
