Stitchpool Farm Stable Cottage Reviews

Honestly, everything was spot on. The arrival of scones, cream, butter, bread, milkand cake was such a lovely touch. The wet room with underfloor heating was super spacious and well-designed. Can't wait to return in a few weeks!
Alex
Really enjoyed our stay, the place was comfy and welcomingand that cream tea was a lovely touch!
Emma
Great kit, really impressed!
Rachel
Our two-week stay was lovely, especially starting with a delicious cream tea. The staff were friendly and welcoming. We definitely plan to return soon!
Sam
The cottage was absolutely charming, nestled in such breathtaking scenery. Waking up to the sounds of animals on the farm was lovely, really added to the experience. The outdoor dining space with a built-in BBQ and hot tub made everything feel extra special. Everyone was so friendlyand the homemade scones with cream tea was a perfect touch. Can't wait to come back!
Marina
We had a lovely stay and felt so welcome! When we arrived, they brought us freshly baked cake and cream teas, which was a nice touch. The friends we brought with us absolutely loved being on the farm and really enjoyed the hot tub. The staff were all really friendly and we would definitely come back again.
Dominic
We really enjoyed our week here! The cottage is well equipped and the owners are super friendly. The location was just perfect for us. It was so peacefuland the views of the lovely green fields of North Devon were brilliant. Within just a few short miles, we found pubs, coffee houses, restaurantsand supermarkets—all the essentials! Plus, there are some great walking, cyclingand running opportunities to keep us busy throughout the days.
Diplo
We had a fantastic time during our stay! The owners were incredibly lovely and super helpful. It's in a lovely quiet spot, perfect for recharging and regenerating. We truly enjoyed ourselves. Thanks a million!
Joanne
The owners were really lovely people, but we didn't have a great time at Stitchpool. It's ridiculously remote, like seriously. The water pressure was quite poor so we couldn't have a proper shower or even use the kitchen sink. We found the outdoor area to be really dulland there was no rear garden area as promised. Honestly, there wasn't much to do around the site either. The views weren't that impressiveand we felt like we were intruding on the place most of the time. We were really disappointed and ended up leaving early. Just wasn't for us!
Margery
This place has an amazing aspect and a lovely rural outlook, with interesting activities happening around the cottage! The friendly locals, dogsand horses really made our stay so relaxing and enjoyable. Nothing felt intrusive, yet we definitely felt included in the farming life as we watched the stable activities unfold. The country lanes were totally charming. Plus, we had the most amazing meals at The Forest Inn in Simondsbathand the area is a great jumping-off point for Woollacombe, Ilfracombe, Combe Martin, Exmoor and more.
Stewart
We had a lovely stay at this charming cottage on a working farm near Exmoor! The atmosphere was so inviting and it felt like a real escape from the hustle and bustle of daily life. Being surrounded by nature was a real delightand we enjoyed the peace and quiet it offered. The hosts were incredibly friendly and attentive, making sure we had everything we needed for a comfortable stay. The cosy cottage itself was well-equipped and had all the essentials. We really felt at home here, taking walks around the farm and soaking up the beautiful scenery. Highly recommend for a relaxing getaway!
Terra
This cottage is absolutely beautiful! It's really well equipped and super comfortable, plus the location is just lovely. The owners are incredibly friendlyand the treats they left for us on arrival were a delightful surprise. We enjoyed scones, jam, creamand even cake. Since the cottage is on a working farm, we did hear some animal noises in the early mornings, but we actually found that added to the enjoyment of our holiday. Big thanks to Vicky and John for a wonderful stay!
Danielle
We had a brilliant week at the cottage, even though it is a bit remote. The working farm was just perfect for our son and his family, who absolutely loved being able to see the animals up close! The cottage was clean, comfortableand well equipped. Vicky and John were lovely hosts and really accommodating.
Carla
We found this place so comfyand it has all the equipment you could possibly need. The hot tub was a big hit with everyone, particularly in the evenings after a long day out. It's a bit remote, but we really enjoyed heading out each day to explore the moors or the coast, so that didn't bother us at all!
Tracey
The cottage was just lovely and so cozy! It really had everything we could possibly need. The owners were super friendly and really informative.
