Had a wonderful 5 days of rest & relaxing in the Annexe. It has everything one needs for a short stay. Everything was really well organised and clean throughout even for our little dog! It's situated close to the Cliff Railway at Lynton & Lynmouth. The Lynton & Barnstaple Railway and The Valley of the Rocks. Highly recommend all these visits! Oh and National Trusts Arlington Court was delightful too... There's honestly no bad points - thank you so much John & Amanda :)

Beautiful annex, very clean and comfortable, worked perfect for 2 people and a large dog. You can see the wild horses on the hills in the morning from the window, which for me was amazing. Lovely hosts, was a pleasure and joy to meet them.

The Durcombe Water Annexe was perfect for our stay. It was so clean, not one speck of dust when we first arrived. Comfy bed, great powerful shower and working kitchen. Perfect for a cosy weekend away!
