Stayed here Friday - Monday due to the fact its a good old simple break away and something completely different. We were worried the hut would be too small for us two but actually it turned out to be great fun. Fridge, Microwave and Kettle is all you need fresh water tap just outside the hut and the dedicated toilet block is 20ft away. Had breakfast onsite for one morning as we were spending most of the days out exploring the Devon coast.There was no fire pit at the time we stayed but this may have been down to the very dry weather and grass that was down there. Great location fruit trees every where on the site. John and Cynthia were really down to earth honest people and were super helpful and very welcoming. The stay was very much enjoyed for a short break as long as you don't expect the Ritz and the odd spider here and there. Overall a very enjoyable stay to get away from everything and switch off.
