Very pleasant stay and Lynda was a great host. Highly recommend this lovely cottage - clean and comfortable in very nice setting, with a lovely garden and woods. Our kids especially enjoyed it. Lots to see and do in the nearby area - we visited Westward Ho! for surfing lessons at easter time, brisk but fun!

Just got back from a lovely peaceful trip, the cottage had everything we needed, beds were really comfy and great quality. The hosts were friendly, had some great recommendations and were there if needed. We felt very welcome to explore the grounds, the gardens were beautiful and every corner there was something to see, like a ‘Secret Garden’, me and my Lab had big smiles on our faces exploring, especially the meadow. Hope to visit again, thanks for hosting us xxx

Great short stay

The house was clean and fully equipped. It was a bit on the chilly side in early April, but we lit the fire a couple of times which really helped to warm the cottage up. The owners were really helpful, friendly and accommodating, and it was reassuring they were just next door to assist with anything. We had a great few days exploring the coast mainly and the cottage was a fantastic base for us!

So relaxing

No Place really is like no other place! Surrounded by beautiful countryside and so very quiet and peaceful. Great touristy spots within driving distance, eg Bideford, Barnstaple, Woolacombe and Ilfracombe. Would recommend one of the local pubs, The Globe Inn, at Beaford too - great food! We hope to visit No Place again.

Fabulous cottage in a stunning location

My family and I had a wonderful time during our stay. Upon arrival we were stunned by the setting which included woodland, a wild flower meadow and a tranquil pond teeming with wildlife - perfect for spending some quality time as a family. The cottage is well equipped, clean and cosy. A real home from home. Lynda made us feel immediately welcome and recommended some local highlights to visit including some stunning beaches and scenic walks. I can't recommend the cottage, or the hosts, highly enough.

We had an absolutely fantastic, cosy, and memorable stay at this beautiful Vrbo property in North Devon.Our hosts, Linda and David, were superb. They were incredibly attentive and provided a useful recommendation for a stop on our return journey. Their warm welcome and attentiveness made us feel instantly at home.The cottage itself is delightful: perfectly equipped and wonderfully cosy and warm, even in late October. The setting is ideal—a quiet, rural retreat with lovely gardens and grounds, perfect for disconnecting and unwinding.As for amenities, the electric car charging port was a great, useful feature. It allowed us to charge our EV seamlessly, keeping the car charged for our daily excursions to various National Trust properties.If you're seeking a relaxing, high-quality escape with genuine and attentive hosts, we highly recommend this property!

Tranquil Relaxing Stay

A lovely location with full use of the grounds which we greatly enjoyed, strolling with our dog around the pond and the meadow and sitting out in the secluded garden when the weather permitted. The house was comfortable and well equipped, and best of all, peaceful. The house is well located for visiting the countryside and north coast of Devon. A slight quibble, in that, on a cold wet first day, the house was not warm enough, but that was quickly remedied with the owners, who were very helpful throughout.

Our stay

Our entire experience at this property was nothing short of amazing. The cottage was beautiful and cozy, and the explorable land was incredible and undeniably peaceful. The land was wonderfully maintained and secluded, providing a feeling of safety and tranquility. Inside the cottage there was everything that we needed (a microwave, fridge, small freezer, cooker, washing machine, etc), as well as a beautiful log burner that the hosts had made sure was well-stocked. The beds were very comfortable and we all had a great nights sleep. Our hosts were kind and very hospitable, providing us with a sweet welcome hamper, showing us around the property and encouraging us to look around and explore the woodland, meadow, and pond. Would most definitely recommend this cottage!

A short break in the country

We had a great stay at Lynda's cottage, she was very helpful and hospitable. The cottage is right in the country side which we really liked. There is nice walking routes and cycling on the Tarka trail around Great Torrington, under 5 miles away. We surfed at Northam Burrows (Westward Ho!) Which was quiet and just under 15 miles away. We had dinner at the New Inn pub in Roborough, really good food and friendly locals. We'd go back and would recommend if you're looking for a good value, comfortable cottage in beautiful countryside.
