"We really enjoyed our stay. We were walking the SWCP and were glad to stop earlier on this leg.

Delicious dinner down stairs, and lucky for us on our night, a live singer providing a musical background atmosphere. She was lovely, and just the thing to elevate the evening to next level."

Top Exmoor Zoo Hotel Reviews

Rural retreat for 2 with private HOT TUB close to Exmoor and the Coast

10/10 Excellent

"The Barn was extremely well equipped and finished to a high level. It was spotless throughout. Host met us on arrival and went through the property. In addition extensive notes were left. Host was next door if we needed further help. We used three of the recommended restaurants and all were very good.We would have no hesitation in recommending or booking again."

Kentisbury Grange

8/10 Good

"Excellent room. Continental breakfast a little sparse, but plenty of it. Staff really helpful."

Orchard View - Fully Accessible Barn Conversion in North Devon

8/10 Good

"Orchard Cottage was perfect for our disabled Daughter-in - Law lovely location with great views hoping to return next year"

Bantam Cottage - sleeps 2 guests in 1 bedroom

10/10 Excellent

"We had an amazing holiday thanks to Alice and her team, it was fantastic, she was incredibly helpful and accommodating when it came to our specific needs during the week. The 3 properties that we rented, Bantam, Aylesbury and Peacock were ideally situated in a private, safe courtyard for our group of 3 families. The private hot tub in Ayelsbury was an absolute boom and access to the pool was so easy from where we were all situated, it felt like we had it to ourselves. All the properties were of a very high standard equipped with everything that we needed and more. The only thing that we missed was being able to use the firepit and BBQs but that was down to national restrictions because of the dry weather. Thanks for the special memories that were made in our time at Coulscott, I would certainly recommend!"

The Old Piggery, countryside accessible cottage

10/10 Excellent

"We had a wonderful time at The Old Piggery in Goodleigh. The setting is beautiful, with stunning views across rolling hills, and it’s such a peaceful and relaxing place to stay. Hosts, Tom & Sue, were so welcoming and helpful. The delicious cream tea waiting for us on arrival was a lovely touch and much appreciated. We travelled with our mum, who is a wheelchair user, and the property had everything she needed to make her stay comfortable and relaxing. It was wonderful to find somewhere so well suited to our family. We made good use of the BBQ on the lovely patio and had plenty of space to have family over for an evening. We also arranged a Tesco delivery for the morning after we arrived, which worked perfectly and made settling in even easier. Thank you, Tom & Sue, for such a memorable week. The Old Piggery is a very clean, peaceful and beautiful place to stay, and we would love to return. Highly recommended!"
