This is our second visit to Valley View. The accommodation is very comfortable, the bed is super comfy. The gardens were not open to the public but we were able to enjoy walks around them and view the ongoing work the gardeners were doing. If you are looking for a good breakfast then a visit to Millers Farm Cafe a few miles down the road is a must. Lyme Regis, Honiton, Seaton, Sidmouth and the Donkey Sanctuary are worth a visit.

Well equipped and comfortable cottage in beautiful surroundings. Owners were friendly and helpful. We had a lovely short break. The gardens were beautiful even out of season. Would happily visit again.
