A wonderfully peaceful place with beautiful walks on the doorstep. Everything you could need is provided, including bowls, bed and towels for your dog. Don't forget your map or satnav though because the winding lanes with their high hedges soon make you lose your bearings!

Fantastic location to explore Exmoor. Cottage was well equipped and clean. Amazing views from the lounge window. The owners were so nice and helpful too. Perfect holiday for you and your four legged friends. Cafe, shop and pub all very good too.
