  We had an absolutely delightful stay at Marsh Cottage with our two dogs!

  We were impressed by the warm and inviting atmosphere of the place. The bathroom was lovely with comfortable tub that allowed relaxation after a day of exploring, with second loo downstairs. The bed was incredibly soft and provided a restful night’s sleep. The huge fenced-in garden was a dream for our furry companions, offering them a safe and exciting space to roam and play freely. The garden was beautifully maintained, with delightful flowers, butterflies, birds and bees. And the added bonus of friendly horses just on the other side of the fence brought an extra touch of charm to the whole experience. The location of the cottage couldn't have been better for our Devon coast and Exmoor walks. Make sure you take the picturesque stroll into North Molton, starting right from the cottage, as it was a true gem, allowing us to immerse ourselves in the beauty of the local surroundings with spectacular views of the village. We appreciated the privacy of the cottage, allowing us to truly unwind and disconnect from the busy world. The well-equipped kitchen was a pleasure to use, making it easy to prepare our meals and dine comfortably. Sheltered carport a huge bonus with unexpected showers. We can't wait to return to Marsh Cottage! It truly exceeded our expectations and provided the perfect escape for us and our pups!

  This property is in a lovely setting with super views.

  It is very well equipped with everything you could need in the kitchen. Lovely walks to Lyme Regis. Great not to have to use the car. There are a couple of points to consider with this property though. The property suited us as 2 adults, a teenager and a dog. However I can’t really see it working with 6 people as it’s advertised for due to the size of the kitchen/dinning room and seating in the lounge. The garden is secure which is great if you have a dog, However, it should be noted the gates on the driveway need to be shut to achieve this. We don’t have a large car so we were able to manoeuvre our car to be able to shut them. Not sure how easy this would be with a large car and certainly not with 2 cars. Unfortunately we didn’t find the sofas or mattresses particularly comfortable which meant no great night sleep for anyone. Overall the great weather and setting of the property meant we enjoyed our week away but I would be unlikely to return to this property.

  The cottage was perfect for us and our large dog with the enclosed garden for him to roam freely and safely.

  We loved the remoteness and privacy the cottage offers with the large south facing garden. My only suggestion is that perhaps you mention in the description that you have 2 very friendly horses in the field on the other side of the fence. Only that if any dogs are reactive to horses, customers are aware of the horses there. Our dog is reactive to horses, and we saw it as a good opportunity to desensitise him and train him - but when your horses came right to the fence to say hello (which was lovely for us!), we had to put our dog on a long lead and hold him back to prevent him spooking the horses by lunging and barking at them. This was not a negative for us, as like I said, it was a great opportunity to help train him to be comfortable in horses presence, but it could be a different consideration for others, depending on their dog. We really enjoyed our stay so thanks again and we may well return!

  On arrival we thought the outside of this particular property needed a little TLC.

  Access step’s & bannister rickety & in need of a repaint. Inside first impressions lovely & spacious, bedrooms fabulous. Facilities good but kettle & cutlery could do with replacing. Lounge curtains too long & bunched up on the floor, causing a trip hazard. The windows were not clean & tap in second bathroom was very stiff. I received the E-mail regarding “no water in the lake” the day we arrived so disappointed it was not as advertised. The site was not clearly marked on the entrance from the road (faded) & the long drive to the site was off putting. However our stay was comfortable & we had fabulous weather (loved the hammock) so enjoyed visiting places we had not been to before. We will use Sykes again of course but check information about properties thoroughly before booking.

  The Cottage was a perfect place to stay to celebrate my wife’s 60th birthday. It was spacious and beautifully decorated. The welcome pack and a large carton of milk were a nice touch. Family and friends joined us for our stay and were really impressed with the property. The owners have thought of everything to make sure their visitors have a wonderful stay. The cottage is really well located under an archway just off the quayside and is close to shops, cafes and pubs. I was worried parking would be an issue but we parked at Stearman’s Yard long stay car park just 5 mins walk away at a cost of £8.50 for 24 hours. You can get a weekly ticket if staying longer. I would highly recommend this cottage in the beautiful town of Wells-Next-The-Sea.
