"We really enjoyed our stay. We were walking the SWCP and were glad to stop earlier on this leg. (Just dont take the road to the lighthouse and then climb the scree over the hill: steep and dangerous). The room was excellent. Comfortable. 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

The Old Piggery, countryside accessible cottage

10/10 Excellent

"This was all we wanted. Very nice cottage, clean and situating in a nice area off Devon. Every thing we needed was in the cottage, there was an exellent pub down the road with very good food. Very nice people who run the Old Piggery. What more can you wish?"

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!"
