What our customers say about their holidays
Ross - Verified booking
We stayed in March, and it was advertised as having an open fire, which had been blocked off.
It was part of the reason for us booking it. In May it was still advertised as with open fire. We had no explanation or apology. The boiler casing was off when we arrived, which Iâd consider a H&S issue, the thermostat wasnât working and it was really loud, couldnât hear the TV. So it was a cold first night. We left for two days and it was all repaired. Needing a new part, the noise was something to do with the fan, but as that was £300 it wasnât done, apparently. We then ran out of gas overnight. This was rectified on the following day. It had rained a lot, and the parking and access to the property is a grass verge, it was just a massive puddle of mud. The dishwasher wasnât switched on, the plug was way behind the cooker and needed a long mop handle to reach it and switch it on, which was awkward. The kettle was filled with lime scale, the cutlery were few and a lot with rust, knives were all dull with no sharpener, some basics lacking, like a tin opener. Thereâs extremely few basics in the cupboard - the herbs there are are literally from the 1980s. The owner was polite and quick to deal with issues when raised, but in knowing we were arriving, the boiler really should have been fixed and operational. Two nights cold wasnât pleasant, never mind the other aspects.

My husband and I had a lovely stay here.
The cottage is very clean & comfortable. The only negative for myself is the step into the bathroom was very deep which with me having mobility issues I ordered a step on amazon prime to use while we were there. There are other steps into the kitchen but they were manageable ( for me). So if anyone is disabled, consider the steps, as although it's all on one level there are quite a few steps to negotiate. Fresh milk and cake awaited our arrival which was very welcome. The road to the cottage is very very narrow and winding so be prepared foe that also. If you love the countryside and being in the middle of nowhere , this is the place for you. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here and would highly recommend the old smithy. The owner being next door was no problem, our Privacy was respected completely. We were sorry we missed the owner on the day we left to say goodbye. The wildlife surrounding the property is lovely, often hearing owls at night and deer jumping out in front of us as we drove. 100% recommended for a peaceful holiday. Rosie & Nick

If you are looking for a quiet and cosy retreat, then this is just the cottage for you.
Very quiet indeed, with around 3 vehicles a day driving past, 4 on Tuesdays when the bin lorry visits. The solid fuel central heating does take a little while to master, but it does make the whole place feel very warm and snug. Our stay coincided with Storm Babet and the cottage remained cosy and comfortable whilst the storm was raging outside. Tom, the owner came round to check that we were OK and that we had enough food. We were, and we did. But that was a very considerate gesture. Thank you Tom. Apart from just enjoying the tranquil surroundings, there's plenty of places to visit all within an easy drive. A walk along the beach from Low Newton to Dunstanburgh Castle was one of the highlights for us. Berwick-upon-Tweed is a lovely place, as is dog friendly Melrose with its Abbey and the fantastic Trimontium Museum. If you don't want to travel that far, then there are some stunning walks around Ford and Etal, just a few minutes away. We would recommend the delicious cheese scones at Boes cafe. All in all, a wonderful relaxing break.

A comfortable, well equipped home apart from too small a fridge for 4 adults and for our 11 nights stay, difficult keeping our drinks cold!
but managed and a visit to Richmond for food midweek was possible. As all are used to a dishwasher having none made clearing up after a family meal a bit of a chore however view from kitchen window was enjoyable and a routine was established.We and our dog Mac enjoyed the many walks from the front door and the ability to walk to the local pubs and restaurant ,a peaceful relaxing stay with wonderful views of the countryside and especially enjoyed the woodburner,while eating our meals or sitting chatting in the lounge . We appreciated that the owner was available if needed and knew the area well.We had a lovely Christmas & New Year family get-together, thank you for the care and attention to detail you have put into T'Other End,Arkle Town House,the Christmas tree and welcome box was appreciated ,Best wishes for a great 2024.

The Old Smithy was very clean and new.
The bed was extremely comfortable and the house was warm and cosy. The owner had provided milk and home made cake on our arrival. The kitchen was a home from home with loads of equipment. Everything was excellent, we even had Wi-Fi and Sky TV. The local area is safe and very quiet with views of the, hills, farmland and sheep. The location is good for access to Honiton, the south coast and the moors. We visited, Sidmouth, Budleigh Salterton, Exmouth, Seaton and Beer to the south. Okehampton and Tavistock to the west in Dartmoor. There are lots of walks near the Smithy in the Blackdown Hills. I would highly recommend The Old Smithy for couples who like to get away from the town for a while.
