"We had a wonderful stay at Owls Nest."
The cottage was like a home from home. Elaine and Michael were perfect hosts. The cream and scones waiting for us in arrival made for a lovely treat. And the visits from Ben (retired farm dog), made the stay perfect. The cottage is well situated to visit all areas of Devon. We enjoyed a variety of coastal and in land walks.
Morning Sally. So pleased you enjoyed your stay with us. Lovely touch ' from Lucy', for Ben. Certainly enjoyed! Thank you. It was a pleasure to meet you all. Thank you again. Property Owner

"Adorable cottage, in adorable setting."
Was greeted with a warm welcome from our Host Elaine, and "Ben". After which we decamped, from the car, and found our inviting space, in living room and bedrooms. We took our cream tea, that was prepared for us to the seating area in the garden and enjoyed the last moment of the "golden hour". We thoroughly enjoyed our relax and recuperation chilling in the evenings, and our sleep was great each night. Owls nest was in a convenient spot for getting to the coastline each day. We enjoyed our visit to Saunton, once in rainy conditions and the following day in sunshine. We used our last day to pack up our stuff in relaxed situation, and left with happy hearts before leaving to visit Lynton. As it was a birthday treat and holiday for one of the grandchildren, I think the choice was excellent, and went down well and enjoyed by all. One of the nicest choices made in this area, would I go again... Most certainly.
Wow! Thank you for your comments. Really appreciated. So glad everything worked well for you all. You were fortunate to be able to take your cream tea into the garden at the best time of the day! Regards Property Owner

"Owl’s Nest is a fantastic holiday cottage."
We arrived to lovely flowers and a cream tea waiting for us on the dining table. The cottage is well equipped and very comfortable - no faulting it. The outside space is nice and peaceful and perfect for sitting out in. Elaine is really naively and she was on hand for any queries we had. We found the cottage location ideally placed for exploring North Devon and would definitely come back if we holiday in this area again.
Morning Jo. Thank you so much for your feedback & pleased that all at Owl's was ideal for you - accessibility etc. If ever you are in this area, we'd love to see you again. Thank you. Property Owner

Sheltered, private garden - a real sun trap whilst we were there - to enjoy the BBQ. A real joy to visit the many coastal towns in North Devon - scones in The Greenhouse, Lynton , are second to none!

We had a wonderful time, relaxing at the Cottage and exploring North Devon. The cottage is well equipped with comfortable furniture and is very dog friendly with straight access into garden.

"Wonderful hosts!"
Elaine took our girls three times to feed the sheep which really made their holiday extra special! The dog had his own field to let off steam every morning. The home was superb. Literally only improvement would be for a more comfortable mattress in the double bed. Otherwise the home and Holiday was faultless.
Thank you for your feedback. Much appreciated. The girls were a pleasure to take to feed the sheep & glad that the field was of great use. We have definitely taken note, regarding the mattress. Thank you. Property Owner
-
"We had such a lovely week at Owls Nest."
The cottage is incredibly well equipped and decorated lovely. We were very comfortable and enjoyed returning at the end of each day. Elaine is very welcoming (and so were the scones) and the kids loved chatting to her each day. She even took them into the field to feed the pet sheep, which they loved. The views are stunning, surrounded by fields and sheep. We took our dog and he had a great week too!! We would love to return.....the kids want to stay for 2 weeks next time!
Thank you for such a lovely review. We're so glad to hear you enjoyed your holiday and would love to have your family back at Owl's Nest. Property Owner

"Owl's nest was a great place to spend our holiday it was beautifully clean and well decorated with every thing you could ask for for a comfortable stay."
The enclosed garden was great for our dog to be able to go outside safely and lovely to site in to enjoy a drink or meal for us.South Moulton is a good place for exploring the area and we had great time travelling round. The Owners are very friendly and welcoming and always happy to help. We would definitely recommend this holiday stay if you are looking for somewhere in this area.

"We had a lovely week at Owl’s Nest."
Elaine was the perfect host and made us feel very welcome, even ensuring everything was ok on the 2nd day (braving the rain!). The cottage is well equipped and they seem to have thought of everything! The garden is well enclosed but there is no direct access from the house which may be a problem for those with dogs for letting them out particularly if they have wandering tendencies! All in all it’s a lovely base for a beautiful part of the country and we would definitely recommend.
Thank you for your feedback, we are glad you enjoyed your stay at our property. We are aware of the garden access and currently trying to find a work around for this. Again we are glad you enjoyed your stay and hope to see you again soon. Property Owner

"Good location for visiting North Devon area."
Very friendly hosts. Useful adjacent area for dog walking. Really enjoyed our stay and would recommend. Very pleased with Sykes in general - friendly and obliging staff.
-
"Everything about Owl's Nest was perfect."
Elaine the owner was warm and friendly and made sure we had everything we needed. The cream tea with fresh scones and fresh flowers which awaited us on our arrival made us feel instantly at home! If its peace and tranquillity you want, waking up to bird song and the occasional bleat of the sheep with perfect views then Owl's Nest is the place for your holiday!
-
"The cottage is on a working Exmore sheep farm, Elaine and her husband are very friendly, as is Ben the sheep dog."
Feeding the lambs was the highlight of the week!
-
"Fantastic week’s holiday, two of us plus Labrador loved Owl’s Nest and the farm run by very friendly professional hosts."
Cottage is very private, old with lots of character, high standard modern kitchen/ bathroom etc. Good walks from the cottage and short drive to Exmoor moors. Local town has great market place for local food, crafts, antiques. Location is perfect for exploring the amazing beaches, many have huge dog walking areas all year. So many beautiful places within 45mins drive of Owl’s Nest including Lorna Doone Valley and Valley of the Rocks as our favourites. Absolutely recommend Owls Nest and would consider rebooking.
-
"Such a lovely location and the owners could not be more friendly or helpful."
We felt so welcome. The cottage is beautiful and has lovely views out of every window. It is really well equipped and you don’t want for anything. It’s the perfect base for exploring North Devon. We hope to go back again soon

"Friendliness 0f Michael, Elaine and Ben."

"We really could not fault this cottage."
It was a truly lovely location, the cottage was very clean, well equipped and nicely furnished. The shower was amazing as was the heating if needed. You couldn’t wish for nicer owners, friendly and chatty if that what you want, but also left well alone with just a passing wave when needed. We will certainly return.
-
"Third time we have been to owls nest, elaine michael and ben the dog are excellent hosts we always enjoy going there"

"Brilliant holiday."
Elaine and Michael were very welcoming. We have a nine year old who loves farming, he was feeding the sheep every morning with Elaine and flying kites in the field in the afternoon. The house is in a lovely position and was very clean and comfortable. We would highly recommend this house.
-
"Had an enjoyable holiday."
The owners of the cottage were always on hand if any problems occurred. The cottage was well equipped and the enclosed garden was ideal for our dog. The cottage was ideally located to explore many locations. All in all a home from home.

"The cottage was spotless and very comfortable and catered for your every need in every way."
Elaine the owner was the perfect host she was so friendly and nothing was too much trouble for her,the cottage is definitely a credit to her and her husband.
-
"The garden is not as big as the photos show ."
there are 6 steep steps up to where the table and chairs are on a very small grassed section.
-
"The Owls nest is a great little cottage."
When I saw it advertised on the internet i thought that's just what I need to get away from the hustle & bustle, just to take it easy and relax, but not too far from the beach or the shops. Elaine was there to meet us on our arrival. She is such a lovely caring and helpful lady, nothing was too much trouble for her. Then when we get inside WOW,lovely kitchen, real comfortable sitting area.Nice bathroom with bath and shower. 2 double bedrooms. Everything spotlessly clean, just perfect. Thankyou so much Elaine & Mike for helping make our stay at The Owls nest so enjoyable. Hope to see you again next year. From Gloria &John

"Great cottage, complete with gorgeous dog Ben!"
-
"What a super week we enjoyed in Owl's Nest cottage at Poadmarsh Farm."
Elaine and Michael were so kind and welcoming allowing our 15 year old daughter to help bottle feed Hector the lamb and even taking her out to the top fields to meet the other sheep! We were greeted with homemade cake and tea which was lovely after rather a long 'Bank holiday' type journey! There are lots of places to visit within a 45 minute drive and the accommodation is perfect for dog owners. The kitchen is perfectly equipped and there is a private garden (accessed to the left of the front door, not from within the property itself) backing onto fields of sheep and perfect for a BBQ. The beds were comfy and the cottage was super clean with homely touches. We left feeling relaxed and recharged and can't believe we have never explored this little corner of England before now. If you want a lovely 2 bedroomed cottage to do the same, don't hesitate in booking this little gem!
-
"EXcellent location for what we wanted."
....and closeby to a major trunk road for Devon was very useful
-
"Lovely location in peaceful , tranquil part of Devon , yet easy distance from communication and facilities ."

-
"Owl's Nest is a lovely cottage in a beautiful rural location, offering great views across North Devon and Exmoor."
The cottage is very well appointed and we wanted for nothing. The garden is secure, secluded and has a barbeque and garden furniture which we enjoyed using during this balmy, unforgettable summer. We had a great week here and Elaine and Michael are lovely hosts and Ben, their working sheepdog, is full of fun and loves to play ball. We hope to come back and savour the Devon life again another day!

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.

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!
