What our customers say about their holidays

• Miss Bentley - Verified booking

  Fantastic cottage and grounds. Well equipped and spotlessly clean throughout. We just couldn’t fault anything at all. So beautifully decorated, furnished and finished it most definitely felt like a place of relaxation and rest. Very well though out by the owners with the guests comfort in mind. The outside space was excellent for both us and our doggy. All securely fenced and a brilliant covered area for the hot tub. The farm is beautiful and the owners provided a map of the grounds so we could enjoy the land and views. The location was great for exploring along the north coast with excellent amenities just 10 minutes away in a car. The small country lanes are part of its charm, with very little passing traffic and fantastic views. Thank you to Sam & Steve for being excellent hosts. We would love to coming back!

  We booked just 3 days before arrival and received all of the arrival details including a phone call from the owners which were clear and helpful. On arrival we were met with a warm welcome and a well needed plate of scones and cream. The cottage is beautiful and very well laid out. As a family with 2 teenage boys we all had enough space and we had everything we needed there including an en suite in each of the bedrooms which were really useful too. The cottage was cosy in the evenings and has privacy in the courtyard area for alfresco dining/ breakfast etc. Location was good and allowed easy access to lots of areas to explore further afield on the local road networks. We had a fantastic stay and would definitely come back again.

  Absolutely wonderful cottage. One of the very few we would come back too. Like a home from home. It’s remote (ish) set in a beautiful Devon rural farming landscape. The lanes are made in Devon. Narrow. This took nothing away from our stay. Our hosts were welcoming and ready to help if needed. The cottage is bright and welcoming. The cream tea delicious. Upstairs the bedrooms are comfortable and the bathrooms clean and functional. Outside space was nice but alas not used too much due to the English late summer. Close to lovely countryside walks. A little further by car too all North Devon has to offer. We had a great stay and would more than recommend it to others.

  An extractor fan in the bathroom would be a help.

  The outdoor temperature for our stay was around 18 to 20 degrees. It proved difficult to air the bathroom as the heating was not scheduled to come on (there were no instructions about the heating so we assume it is pre-set). The bathroom is downstairs and the window opens into next door's yard, but in any case the overall temperature was too cool to drive away the damp feeling. This is not a major grumble, but it could be eased without too much trouble. The cottage is very snug and in a very attractive and convenient location. We had a very enjoyable holiday and we will certainly consider using Sykes again, and possibly coming back to Boo Cottage.

  We had the most super week at Boo cottage - it really is a little gem!

  The courtyard garden was just ideal - the whole cottage was really clean and comfortable - the beds were comfortable, the lounge was ideal. There was everything you could need there! The pub over the road was lovely and it was really quiet - even with the windows open in the lovely weather, we never heard any noise at all from the pub or anywhere! It is in an ideal location for visiting lots of lovely areas nearby - we ventured down to the fossil coast - along to Dunster Castle and up to Cheddar Gorge - all within easy reach! I think it would be a great place to stay at any time of year and we may well pay a return visit in the future.
