Absolutely amazing hosts and caravan and this was spotlessly clean. We had car trouble on arrival and our hosts truly went out of their way to help us taking into consideration that we had two very young children, they even arrived at the caravan on the 2nd day to offer me a lift to collect my repaired car. We could not have wanted more from either location, caravan or hosts, in short, absolutely 10 out of 10 for everything. What started as a nightmare due to car problems was instantly put right thanks to our hosts. We will definitely be staying again!!!! Booking.com sent the booking information incorrectly to our hosts so the caravan was only set up for two adults and not the two adults and two children booked for, but our hosts put this right immediately. Thankyou so so much for a lovely few days. Can't wait to stay again.

    Our third visitto this idyllic cottage with a tranquil feel. The beautiful cottage is cosy and homely with stinny views. The sound of the meandering River around the cottage is a real treat. We feel lucky to have found such a perfect holiday retreat. The owners are attentive and welcoming. We particularly look forward to the welcome complimentary smoked trout.

    Riverside Cottage was lovely, the location was so idyllic you could have spent days just sitting in the garden but also within a half hour drive of some of North Devons lovely beaches. The owners were so helpful and we loved our tour of the Old Mill, they were always about if needed but also gave you privacy. The cottage was perfect for us and our 2 cocker spaniels who had a fantastic time. Thank you
