• "Lovely roomy accommodation in a truly tranquil setting and Maggi a very welcoming host."

  Good spot for visiting Bude, Bideford and Appledore and other places in north Devon and Cornwall. We can highly RHS Rosemoor as a place to visit. We were very fortunate in being there in the one week in September when the weather was beautiful. Enjoyed the late afternoons sitting in the sun and being visited by the five happy hens.

  Thank you for your lovely feedback. You really did pick the right week for sunshine! All the best Maggi Property Owner

• "The cottage was lovely, Comfortable ,clean and relaxing."

  Unfortunately the lane to approach the cottage is full of large ,deep potholes Making going out a hazardous trip. By the way the farm is called South Worden Farm. Not South Walden Farm as your literature says.

  Thank you for your feedback, I am glad you enjoyed the cottage. The potholes are a problem which I really hope will be dealt with soon. They did mend some up the road last week so fingers crossed the rest will be fixed. All the best Maggi Property Owner

• "Fritillary Cottage was a home from home."

  The owners had thought of everything that anyone would need to enjoy their stay at this property. Excellent kitchen, comfortable lounge, comfortable bed, wonderful wet room with shower. Very spacious for 2 people staying here. Underfloor heating when required which really warmed up the property on a few cool evenings. Outdoor furniture in a private and secluded court yard or on the front lawn with views over fields. Maggie and Charlie were perfect hosts always around the farm if you needed them. Enjoyed chatting to them in the cafe. Charlie made the best sponge cake I’ve ever tasted. Would highly recommend and we hope to return in the future.

  Thank you for your lovely feedback. It is always nice that guests enjoy what Fritillary has to offer. So glad you enjoyed the cake, Charlie will be baking that one again for sure! Lovely meeting you both and hope you will return one day. All the best Maggi Property Owner

• "Our stay at Fritillary Cottage was hugely enjoyable."

  It is a stylish, spacious and lavishly equipped cottage. Maggi and Charlie are welcoming and very responsive hosts. It was a pleasure to stay in this fairly remote farming location, away from hordes of tourists but with a charming, authentic village just down the road.

  Thank you for your lovely feedback. I hope the rest of your adventure is what you want it to be. It was so nice meeting you both. All the best Maggi & Charlie Property Owner

• "We enjoyed our few days at Fritillary Cottage."

  It’s a spacious cottage with a great wet room, plenty of wardrobe space and other facilities. We could not connect to broadband at all during our stay, but could connect with the internet via Wi-Fi on our phones, albeit rather slow at times. I found the bed a bit uncomfortable, but that may be just me. The cottage is in a lovely rural situation. We were a little disappointed the owner did not make contact with us while we were visiting as has been the case on previous rentals.

  Thank you for your feedback . I am sorry the broadband is still an issue and it is something we are trying to address. The comfort of the bed is something that varies between guests, I will check and see what I can do. I did come round to see you and knocked on the door and there was no answer. I assumed you did not want to be disturbed and as I say in the information folder to contact me if you need anything . I tried to catch your attention to say goodbye when you drove by on Saturday. I am glad you enjoyed the area. Best wishes Maggi Property Owner

  Beautiful scenery, peaceful, clean, roomy (is that a word?), modern and the extra thought for our arrival of the milk & Apple juice (delicious :-)) Flowers on the table was a lovely touch as was having the white goods, towels, hangers etc. available. We cannot fault it, wouldn't want to to be honest as everything was so perfect. If there was an issue I'm sure it would have been minor or definitely sorted out straight away. The holiday cottage and everything to do with it will stay with us forever.

  Maggie was understanding to our late arrival and made provision for the key collection. The warm underfloor heating throughout was the perfect accompaniment to our Christmas break making our stay extra cosy. I would certainly recommend the cottage and may return in the summer for cycling. Our only recommendation upon reflection would be some USB sockets for devices we can't live without!! Perfect week away, very happy, lovely hosts :)
