• "This is a lovely quiet spot, where we have enjoyed the company of helpful hosts."

  Our dog had access to lots of space to stretch his legs, too. Mabel's View has all you could want of need for self-catering, but there are also many pubs, cafes and restaurants within 10 miles where excellent food is available (the fish and chips in Dartmouth are to die for!).

• "Lovely little cottage, everything spotlessly clean and well maintained."

  The welcome pack had everything we could possibly want - just as well, nearest shop is 4 miles away! Jon and Anthea are wonderful hosts, and Mabel herself (a very friendly Clumber Spaniel) couldn’t have been more welcoming. The local lanes can test the brakes and reversing skills, but you soon get used to them! We really enjoyed the week and may well have a return visit.

• "Hosts were super helpful when we had a small car accident."

  The croissants, butter, milk, dog treats and towels were very very appreciated. It is very rural around the area so if you don’t like winding single track lanes then this is not for you, we however loved it, and the silence. Mabel’s greeting in the morning and evening was a welcome treat, what an absolute sweetie.

• "The owners have thought of everything you might need including leaving milk, jams,croissant's, tea bags and sugar."

  Mabel’s view is on a quiet farm. To get there there are a lot of single track roads and this maybe off putting for some drivers. You definitely need a car to get around as there is very little in walking distance. The owner was really welcoming and helpful with directions etc. The cottage was spotless and well equipped even providing towels for the dog should you need them. I would have no hesitation recommending this property.

• "Mabel's View is a spotlessly clean, comfortable and well equipped cottage."

  Situated in a very peaceful location with stunning views of the surrounding Country side. The owners where friendly, welcoming and helpful when needed. We highly recommend Mabel's View at Higher Norton Farm.

• "We had an excellent stay at Mabel's View."

  However, the initial information given by Sykes Cottages is that it is a detached barn conversion whereas it is, in fact, attached to the owner's own property - this information is given in the finer details, and caused no problems as John was extremely welcoming and helpful. The property is fine for two people but we would consider it would be very cramped with any more. If one needed to pull the dining table out to seat more than two people one would not be able to move around the kitchen dining space with any ease. The property was in excellent condition and the beds were extremely comfortable. The shower would benefit from having a grab rail fitted for safety's sake and more serving dishes of various sizes would have been useful for catering purposes. The cottage is extremely isolated so very peaceful but travelling along the narrow Devon lanes is quite a challenge! It is advisable therefore to take as many provisions as one can as getting even to East Allington is not a 'simple trip down the road'. The ability to use an Ordnance Survey would be advantageous (there was one in the cottage)! We would thoroughly recommend Mabel's View for those who want peace, tranquility and a gentle-paced holiday.
