Had come down to attend a funeral place is lovely peaceful easy to find have been to this area before and owners directions perfect. The only thing I will mention if it's dark when you get there have a light not everyone has phones also perhaps owner invest in a few more solar lights pop near property to light it up or one on property not that dear. As there was no one else on the site it was pitch black. But otherwise lovely peaceful and lovely welcome pack oh and take essentials ie milk etc.

We booked this lodge for its proximity to North Devon attractions, to enable us to show the places to our grandson, we had shown to his father when he was young. The location to the attractions of Bude, Clovelly, Westward Ho, was superb. But be prepared for so rather narrow, rutted muddy single track roads in order to get to the 'Shed'. Meeting large agricultural vehicles along these roads was challenging! The lodge itself was cosy, warm, well equipped and beautifully located with superb beds and bedding. Loved everything about it. Highly recommended, and for our group of 4 it was extremely spacious.
