  • "Fantastic, quiet, and peaceful."

    Beautiful views directly from the bed to the hills beyond. Comfortable and well-equipped. A perfect place to hide away and enjoy the peace of the countryside. The local pub serves excellent food too !

  • "Tracy and Adrian apologies for not seeing you before we left as we wanted to say thank you for a lovely stay, our dog can be quite reactive with farm animals, but he settled to them being at the end of the garden."

    Perfect place and lovely walks. Cottage is well equipped and the local milk eggs and honey were a lovely extra, thank you again and hopefully not too long before we come back.

    Thank you so much guys for choosing Piglet Corner, we’re so pleased you both had a wonderful time. It was great to meet you and we would love for you to stay again in the future. Best wishes. Tracey & Adrian Property Owner

  • "We have just returned from a wonderful 3 day break at Piglet corner."

    The accommodation was well equipped, modern, with beautiful views. Fresh eggs, milk and a pot of local honey, was a very welcoming surprise! The garden is well fenced, and our dogs loved the chickens, cows and sheep who were living in the anointing fields. Tracy and Adrian made us feel so welcome and gave us lots of advice on where to visit and eat out. The property was located in easy access to many walks and local attractions. We would recommend this property to family and friends!

    Thank you so much for taking the time to review your stay. It was lovely to meet you both, it would be great to welcome you back again in the future. Many thanks. Tracey & Adrian. Property Owner

  • "We were met with a very warm welcome from Aid and Tracy."

    The cottage including the kitchen has everything you will need for your stay. The bed was so comfy!. They left us some of their free range eggs with the yellowest of yolks, local milk and honey which was very thoughtful. The views of the countryside from the sofa with the doors open wide listening to the mooing of the cows was so relaxing. We walked our dog Bella down to Culmstock weir and the local pub. I would highly recommend this cottage in a beautiful part of Devon.

  • "The owners were very welcoming, I’ve never had a holiday like this before in the uk so was very relaxing to get away from normal city life."

    Looks bigger than the pictures and the garden was so lovely waking up to the sight of cows and the chickens would happily stay here again!

  • "Tracey and Adrian are really good hosts, providing a welcome pack and checking in to see everything is ok."

    Piglet Corner is clean and well equipped with plenty of entertainment available sitting out in the garden watching the chickens, goats, cows and birds going about their business. A lovely peaceful, rural break.

    Thank you Ian for taking the time to review your stay. We are delighted that you both had a lovely time. It was great to meet you both, we hope to see you again sometime in the future. Tracey & Adrian Property Owner

    Clean and spacious. Lovely and friendly owners and farm animals in the back fields. So relaxing and would love to stay again! Thank you

  • "I booked Piglet Corner for a solo trip to Devon and for a few days of rest and renewal."

    It was just perfect. I took some creative work with me and found a few hours each day to put my mind to this without any interruptions. The garden also provides a space to enjoy the views, read, write and smile at the sound of the ewes with their lambs and the occasional call of the cockerel. The local pub was a 10 minute walk from the property and the food was excellent. Tracey and Ade were on hand if I needed anything which was reassuring but in no way intrusive. The location is a short drive from the motorway, easy reach of both coasts, as well as the towns of Wellington, Cullompton and Honiton. I feel refreshed and re-energised and will no doubt return to explore more of this beautiful part of Devon. A "go to" place for well-being and relaxation whether you travel alone or take someone with you. Thank you.

  • "A delightful little "Corner" which was thoughtfully fitted out with everything I needed and more."

    Roomier than expected and I loved the view of the chickens outside. The owner (and dogs) were friendly and welcoming but not intrusive. Village pub and stores both recommended! TV could only be watched via streaming services but they are so comprehensive that this wasn't a problem for me.

    It was lovely to meet you Helen and thank you so much for taking the time to review your stay. We’re so pleased you had a lovely time. With best wishes, Tracey & Adrian Property Owner

The property

Hemyock 2.9 miles.

Piglet Corner is a delightful, single-storey bolthole, perched rurally in Culmstock in Devon, just a short distance from the Blackdown Hills Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the famous Culmstock Beacon, one of a chain of Elizabethan beacons used to ward off the advancing Spanish Armada.

With glorious views across the surrounding lush countryside, Piglet Corner offers a retreat for couples or solo travellers looking to escape the hustle and bustle, whilst resting a scenic car journey away from the coast.

Reach your tranquil position and park up outside, with your new abode resting on a working farm.

Step indoors and be met by the kitchen/diner, a compact yet well-equipped space, where you can prepare and enjoy meals together, whilst the rear patio serves as a haven for alfresco dining on warmer evenings.

Fully enclosed and private, take advantage of your outdoor space, with rolling hills and lofty peaks in the backdrop, toasting to your getaway with your favourite tipple, ahead of completing your nightly routine in the shower room.

Catch up on the latest TV series from the plush sofa, before climbing into the double bed for some rest.

On your doorstep you will locate The Culm Valley Inn pub, an idyllic dine-out option, along with The Strand Stores cafe a little further along.

Take a wander along the river, or you can explore the beautiful trails.

Admire the market town of Wellington and take a tour of Wellington Local History & Museum Society, explore the shops and boutiques, or discover the nearby market town of Taunton and traverse its gorgeous surrounding countryside.

For a romantic getaway in the heart of Devon, Piglet Cottage is the perfect choice.

Note: This property has a refundable Good Housekeeping bond of £150.

About the location

CULMSTOCK

Wellington 6 miles; Tiverton 11 miles; Taunton 13 miles.

Culmstock is a small picturesque Devon village nestled on the edge of the Blackdown Hills, designated as an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. The River Culme glides gently through the village under the old narrow stone bridge giving a feeling of tranquillity to Culmstock. The village has a pub, a deli shop with a café, a garage. All Saints church dating back to the 12th century is built on a slope near the river and has a 200 year old yew tree growing out of the tower, which means it requires watering regularly by pouring water from the top of the tower. There are some fabulous walks from the village, and from nearby Culmstock Beacon there are magnificent views of the Culme Valley. The charm of the area around the Blackdown Hills is partly retained by the sparsely populated landscape and pretty villages relying significantly on farming. From Culmstock, the rolling hills of Exmoor are a short drive away providing opportunities for horse riding, fishing and bird watching. Being midway between the North and South Devon coasts, Culmstock is an ideal base to explore all aspects of Devon’s natural beauty. There are some excellent attractions in the area including Knighthayes Court owned by the National Trust. And the attractive small Somerset market town of Wellington is less than ten minutes drive, with attractive buildings and unusual shops. There is plenty to keep the whole family occupied when staying in Culmstock.
