  • "Would have been dissappointed had it been mid summer and full of sun as all balconies are overlooked by others and many younger would like a little more privacy."

    As for the building itself and its contents the owner has gone above and beyond in its kitchen accessories.If I had one issue I would only ask that there were a few more knifes in the cutlery drawer to compliment thr forks. Beds were lovely and comfortable,and the on-suite shower very refreshing. Plenty of places to visit within a 30 mile radius and is ideal for exp.oring North Devon. Highly recommended and would certainly use the property again. Sheri the owner is a great host should you need to liase with her
