  • "The Old Nog is a delightful property we loved our stay there!"

    A nice balance of rural peace and quiet,while being central enough to easily explore north Devon. Everything was immaculately clean and the cottage very comfortable with good facilities. The swimming pool was a key reason we chose this location and although small it was big enough to exercise in and we used every day. Again it was perfectly clean and well maintained. Our hound enjoyed his stay too as the fields around are perfect for dog walking and I think he fell in love with the rescue ponies, they seemed to like him equally! The hosts are lovely and helpful and we send our thanks for a very enjoyable holiday, we will recommend the cottages and expect to return in future!

  • "We had such a lovely stay."

    The Old Nog cottage was perfect for us , and we had everything we needed there. Friendly welcoming owner, and peaceful stay, beautiful grounds, very sad to leave. The Sheep Dip pool was the highlight of the trip. Thank you for such a lovely break away. The Sykes Cottages need to update website re clothes washing and drying facilities, as this in now incorrect. I took change thinking there would be a launderette style machine. Please update website re this.
