Stunning views, lovely place to stayand really easy to get to the North Devon beaches. Would recommend!

We loved the peaceful setting and the gorgeous countryside views. The house was lovely, but the en-suite shower was a bit tricky for us due to a high step and narrow door. Overall, a nice place to stay with just a small hiccup.
