  • "Nicely appointed accommodation with everything required available."

    Lovely hosts who were very friendly and accommodating, nothing too much trouble. Had a cream tea awaiting on arrival which much appreciated after a long journey. Just one small suggestion, a small chiminea would supply outside heat and cooking ability when sitting in garden of an evening instead of the small kettle BBQ. This is not a major thing however and does not detract from accommodation in beautiful surroundings and for which my wife and I are looking forward to going back again.

    Thank you so much for your feedback, Bernard. Much appreciated. The idea of a small chiminea, particularly with this year's summer, is a superb idea. Pleasure to meet you both. Regards. We look forward to your return. Property Owner

  • "Had a lovely stay at Jack's Nest."

    Very remote, beautiful surroundings. Elaine was a wonderful host, very friendly. The cottage was spotlessly clean and very spacious for the two of us and our dog. The little private garden was great with lovely views and very secure for the dog. The only minor (and they are very minor) negatives are that the bed wasn't the most comfortable and the duvet was far too hot for the lovely weather we had. The fridge never got very cold despite us turning it right up and probably needs replacing. We had an amazing time and would definitely return in the future.

    Thank you for your feedback. I'm sorry to hear you found that the bed wasn't, for you, the most comfortable. Yes, an extremely hot few days, whilst you stayed. I will look at fridge, although it is not old at all. Apologies for this. I'm glad, otherwise, you enjoyed your stay with us. Thank you for your comments. Property Owner

Poadmarsh Farm Cottages

South Molton 6 miles. These two detached holiday cottages are situated on the owners’ working sheep farm, on the edge of Exmoor, and close to the market town of South Molton in Devon. Approached along a private lane, the original 18th century barn conversions have been renovated with much care to provide a welcoming and comfortable home from home. Both of these delightful cottages provide a convenient base for families and friends who wish to explore the wonderful Exmoor National Park and North Devon coast. Jack’s Nest is all on one level and may be suitable for less able guests with fabulous views across the farm meadows, providing a quiet setting for a holiday for two within this part of Devon. Owl’s Nest on the other hand is a two-storey cottage sleeping four people. This welcoming cottage is surrounded by green meadows and has far reaching views towards Exmoor, making it a peaceful place to stay. Outside, both cottages have their own enclosed lawned garden and BBQ area. The friendly owners welcome guests to lend a hand on the farm, so why not have a go at bottle feeding the new born lambs in springtime or discover the footpaths that lead from the farm through the lovely landscape providing easy walks from your door. The location is perfect for those who would like to explore the area; with Exmoor just across the valley you can enjoy a variety of landscapes, exhilarating walks, an abundance of wildlife and cosy pubs. The stunning North Devon coastline is just a 30 minute drive and offers rocky coves; sandy beaches and everything in-between; surfing, hiking, rook pooling, crabbing or simply relaxing! A 10-minute drive takes you to the town of South Molton, with its well-known pannier market selling local produce, Quince Honey, a family run working bee farm, Melchior Chocolates and a good selection of independent shops, pubs and cafés. Jack’s Nest and Owl’s Nest provide quality accommodation with a huge welcome in a stunning rural setting.
