Comfortable and normal. It's not flash, it's not overly modern but it does feel like home. We don't feel on edge like you do at some places we've rented. It's close to amenities yet far enough away to be peaceful

We've been coming to Pillhead a few years now and this year was the best. its undergone some changes and they were well worth it. it was the first time in ages I didn't want to go home. The new kitchen is great and I was surprised how much we used the hot tub in March, so much so that i might have to buy my own!! i always bring covers for the dog, but the cottage does provide some which are very welcome as is the welcome treats for us and the Dog (however being vegan we took them home for our son and gave the milk to our friend who lives in Bideford) I guess next time we shall say no milk please. my only niggle is the beds are a bit firm and creaky, but other than that we would be more than happy to book again.

Absolutely loved this holiday cottage.. A very well kept cottage that has everything in it that you would need and more. Beautifully decorated and a joy to spend time in. The views from the cottage are outstanding and if peace and quiet is what you want then this is it. Although in the country you are not far from Bideford and Instow (the best place ever if you have a dog) and other lovely coastal resorts.The owners are very thoughtful people who even bake you cupcakes to welcome you to their cottage. As said before, a great cottage and area to holiday in.

The property owner was friendly and helpful, and we had cupcakes, tea and coffee etc.. waiting on our arrival!. The cottage was quite handily situated regarding nearness to supermarket and the town, and near to major routes for ease of travel. Granddaughter enjoyed the swimming pool!
