  The cottage was beautiful both inside and out. It was lovely and warm and welcoming. It was so quiet!. The only time I was woken up was by an owl hooting nearby. The garden is beautiful and tranquil. Sheena and Rod were most welcoming and are fabulous hosts. They are not intrusive and are extremely helpful in advising on local amenities and where they recommend to visit. Our dog Mylo was also made welcome with some dog chews which was a lovely touch, as was the cream tea when we arrived. The cottage was spotless, the bed HUGE and the bathroom beautifully appointed. We have stayed on a self catering basis all over the world and have always been disappointed with the lack of equipment. Not the case at Thyme… from foil to freezer bags, spatulas galore to toast racks, the place had everything we have in our kitchen at home. They have thought of everything!! We used Thyme as a base to visit the beaches to the west (we liked Duck Pool best), the north coast (Westward Ho! has a fabulous beach), we went down into Cornwall even as far as Plymouth and enjoyed many outings to National Trust properties. We thoroughly loved our week at Thyme and would highly recommend it both as a place to relax and a base from which to explore the beautiful southwest.

  This stay was truly a little slice of paradise.

  The owners John and Angela were the kindest and most welcoming hosts I have ever stayed with. My partner and I stayed over new years, and the views from this home did not disappoint! We had wonderful views overlooking the valley towards Exeter, with ancient woodlands and rolling fields surrounding us. The stay was cosy, incredibly clean, and the attention to detail was so appreciated. From the cupboard with books and board games to use during the stay, to the fully equipped kitchen which was fantastic to cook hearty meals in. The bathroom was spacious, and the bath was luxurious. Super comfy bed and pillows too! Our favourite aspect were the purebred sheep and friendly donkeys on site, who the owners very kindly introduced us to. Although we were not able to use the hot tub for the duration of our stay, the owners and Sykes cottages were extremely helpful with making sure we had anything else we could need. I would highly suggest this stay for any couples wishing to have a relaxing stay, with ample walks and adventures only a short distance away. I hope to return in the near future to stay again!

  Thank you for letting us stay in your beautiful cottage. It was so lovely and peaceful here. Watching all the different birds out the kitchen window and seeing the squirrels was lovely. The cottage is so lovely and everything in it, for you to use was great. The Hot tub was a bonus, lovely and relaxing. The robes and slippers where a lovely touch. Excellent thought out, and nothing was a problem. Rod and Sheena and their daughter were lovely and lovely chatting to them, about the area. We visited the Westleigh Inn for an evening meal, well worth a visit, the food was amazing and the staff very friendly and chatty. We visited, Clovelly, Hartland Quay, Dartington Crystal making and Bude. All of the places were lovely to visit and we enjoyed. Would recommend to friends and we loved our stay here so relaxing. PS The scones and clotted cream was also a nice touch.

  The Hayloft was perfect for a few days away.

  The hosts made us feel very welcome and we really enjoyed our stay. It was very much a family run business which shone through. We were surprised to see a lovely welcome package on our arrival. The cottage was well equipped with everything you would need and to a high standard. We enjoyed using the hot tub and towels were provided for this. The beds were very comfortable, as was the seating area in the lounge. The bedrooms were kitted out with lovely features too. There were plenty of utensils, crockery and cookware to cook there, including a gas barbecue that was ready to cook on immediately. The Hayloft is situated on a farm with parking in a gravelled area. Take a walk around the farm to see some absolutely stunning scenery. We also had a tour of the farm and stables by the owner which was amazing. We loved it so much we'd like to return ☺️☺️

  A wonderful shepherd's hut in a beautiful farm. The host Aubrey was so helpful & personable. Pretty much all you'd need is provided I the hut which is both tradional yet modern and well' fitted with hidden nooks n crannies for storage. Recommended by our friends and we were very impressed. The location was on a hill with stunning views and lovely sunsets from the hot tub. The birds wake you up with birdsong. No traffic! Bliss! Bit of trek to the nearest pub and neighbouring cute village Bampton but you'll need a car round there as not walk friendly roads as few pavements. This didn't spoil our experience as we were out somewhere everyday. The countryside is beautiful all around there on the drive to beautiful coastline, bays and coves or inland land to stunning gardens.
