We love it! We love it! We love it!

After a very, very long drive in our Landy all the way from Munich to Barnstaple we arrived at this wonderful, lovely and cosy Cottage! Very friendly and helpful hosts! Everything we needed was provided. The Cottage was very clean and looked after. Lovely furnished with nice details. We will be back! Just a shame it's so far away from our place, otherwise we would stay more often! Thank you so much for a great holiday! We enjoyed every minute and felt at home away from home!

Fantastic Time, lovely Property

Great accommodation. Suited a family of 4 very well. Although there was a heatwave at the time it was cool and we were able to get some respite from the heat. Nice choice of outside areas either in the sun or out of it. Hosts were great. Nice Cider, fudge etc on arrival and we had a hello on arrival. Any questions were answered and nice to have them close, but not that you would notice. The location is fantastic and close to everything you want eg beaches, walks, supermarkets etc. Would recommend to anyone as would suit couples of any age or families.

Classy and convenient barn conversion

Spent 3 nights in this lovely barn conversion, which has been tastefully furnished throughout. Ali and Kate were very welcoming and nothing was too much trouble. Sitting on the balcony in the winter sunshine, overlooking devon countryside, yet only 5 mins drive to Barnstaple. We were visiting friends in the area and will definitely use this accommodation again when we next visit. We love the town of Barnstaple with its Pannier market and fresh produce in Butchers Row. St. Johns garden centre is a great place for a lunch. Baggy Point, near Croyde, is perfect for a half day outing. Dramatic cliffs with birds of prey, if you're lucky, and we watched climbers on the steep cliff-face. The wonderful view of the coast and beach at Croyde, where surfers can be found at any time of the year, is what you see on the walk back. Its an easy walk and well worth the effort. Goodleigh is a perfect spot to explore Exmoor.

GREAT QUIRKY COTTAGE

Overall, a great property with lovely large private garden (shame grass had not been mowed). Fabulous toiletries, kitchen had everything you need and more, however kitchen tap leaked and the ensuite toilet tap was loose, pedal bin did not work. Excellent living area apart from rug which had seen better days. I have rated the property 4 star but if the little nagging points were addressed then we would have given it 5 star!

Great Lilly cottage

Very nice and everything you need. Comfortable beds. Downstairs bedroom rather cold and couldn't work the c/heating. Cottage is for four, but only three seats in the living room. Kindling needed for log fire, which was lovely in the chilly evenings. Yes, it was June!

Loved it!

We had such a wonderful few days here that we didn't want to leave. The house is lovely, really nicely decorated and I loved all the eco products that the owners have used. Our dog Phoebe had ample space to run around in the garden and it seemed very secure. The kitchen is well stocked with everything you need. Can't fault it, can't wait to come back!!

Lovely fully equipped cottage as good as it looks in the photos. We had a lovely time. It was our second stay and would definitely come again. Very nice hosts and great communication. Another highlight was the two cats Spiderman and Maca Paca. My two girls loved both and had a great time with them. Thank you Kate and Ali

A lovely break

We gave two goods rather than excellents. Their could have been a clean sweep but the Wi-Fi was unsecured and didn't always work (not that it was a bother to my wife or I) but one of our daughters had come down and had to return the next day as she conducts her own business via the net and her laptop simply wouldn't log on. But for us and our dog it was marvellous. Extremely quiet and peaceful yet actually close to a good road down to Barnstable. From the traffic lights the whole of Devon was signposted and as far as our dog was concerned, the massive beach at Saunton Sands was just 15 minutes away! The hammock in the back garden is also exquisitely comfortable! We had a very relaxing stay.

Brilliant location, all beaches within 30 mins drive. Barnstaple town roughly 5/10 mins drive.

Property is very well thought out, the cottage has everything you would require, we even received scones & cream on our arrival! Kate & Ali looked after us brilliantly, a very angelic place. We wouldn't hesitate to go back 😁

Fantastic break away1

Spent Monday to Friday at Kate and Ali’s lovely property in North Devon recently. The house was ideally based for everything you could need to do and visit in the area but far enough out of the main town for peace and quiet. My wife and I came back thoroughly refreshed and chilled thanks for having us

Lovely Couple of Days

Great Lilly Cottage is a lovely character cottage with lots of really nice finishing touches. The log burner adds to the character and kept us lovely can warm on a short break in Devon. It is ideally situated from Barnstable and an easy drive to Saunton Sands and Woolacombe. We would happily stay here again with our 3 dogs, the garden is not 100% secure but we don't have escape artist so was not a worry for us. Only suggestion I have for the owners would be for the kitchen to have sundry items such as a sponge to wash up, tin foil, cling film etc and we couldn't find a can opener. Thank you for a lovely few days we loved it!
