  Easter at Broadsands Farmhouse

  We stayed at the Broadsands Farmhouse for a week over Easter and couldn't have been happier. From the moment we arrived my children (aged 7 & 8) fell in love with the animals and grounds, and we did too. Alice and her family did everything possible to make our stay perfect down to the small things like a lovely welcome basket of goodies, a few laundry tablets (which were a life saver), dishwasher tablets, and an absolutely stellar welcome manual in app form which we made endless use of. The accommodation and onsite amenities couldn't have been better; the animals, pool, hot tub, play park, games room, lookout and views were all spectacular. We enjoyed evenings bat spotting from the hot tub while looking out to the changing colours of the valley as the sun set, listening to the sheep and cows across the valley in the various field - we even witnessed a ewe give birth to two lambs a field along. Nearby we enjoyed days exploring the caves at the beach in Combe Martin, the sand dunes at Saunton Sands, shell hunting at Baracane beach, digging and building sandcastles at Woolacombe, taking the funicular in Lynton (to find ourselves above the clouds in Lynmouth) and finally, climbing at Valley of Rocks and a hack across Exmoor from Brendon Manor Stables (Lynton). The week really couldn't have been better and our children are already begging to go back - thank you!

  Fabulous week at the Broadsands Farmhouse

  Our second holiday at Broadsands Farmhouse and we enjoyed it just as much as our first visit. There was plenty to do for two pre-school children with an outdoor playground complete with pirate ship, playhouse and trampoline, an indoor play space and plenty of chances to feed the animals. Our three generation family all loved the beautiful, warm indoor swimming pool as well as the private hot tub on our terrace with fabulous views of the Devon hills. The main rooms of Broadsands Farmhouse were spacious and comfortable with lots of games, books and a doll’s house. A great week with a warm welcome from Alice who looks after her guests in a friendly relaxed way. The property is perfectly positioned close to beaches as well as countryside and we enjoyed trips to Woolacombe, Linton and Lynmouth, Braunton and Ilfracombe and Arlington Court (National Trust).

  Absolutely gorgeous property in rural location with wonderful hot tub . Particularly enjoyed the very quiet setting no traffic nor light pollution just a wake up to bird song Fantastic . We loved the fact that the cottage had sumptuously comfy beds, was very well furnished with appropriate facilities and cooking utensils and had a small rear enclosed grass garden which proved safe for our small cocker spaniel to wander in safely in between walks . The separate tap for the filtered water was also really delicious. We booked this as a last minute family break and so glad we did . Whilst there we used it as a base to visit the key Pitt’s quad biking ( just up the road ) Clovelly and also North Devon aqua park all on our list of holiday attractions . Would thoroughly recommend and will definitely return

  A hidden Gem!

  Although Familiar with Devon and Cornwall, this part of Devon was somewhere we had never visited before and wondered why! The property is set in the most idyllic location nestled atop a valley with amazing views across the hills and valleys and only a short distance from some of the most beautiful beaches in England (at least in our opinion). It seemed less crowded, and the coastal walks and scenery were breathtaking. We didn't have children with us although wish we had as there was a swimming pool, activities, and animals galore (we rather took to the Alpaca)! Alice our host provided such a warm and friendly welcome and pointed us in the right direction to the best walks, beaches, pubs, and places to visit – thank you. To sum up - A hidden gem and on driving home talked about when we might return!
