Such a lovely,relaxing break with family.. We were made to feel very welcome by Sue and Simon. The boys enjoyedplaying in the games room as well as seeing all the animals around the farm. They even helped to collect the eggs from the chickens. It was a great location for us to explore, a short drive to Exmouth beach or Creally adventure park, both were enjoyed by all.

Sue and Simon were wonderfully accommodating and welcoming hosts.. Their cottage was both beautiful and very well set-up. The complete tranquility of the location together with the small farm livestock ticked my boxes, while my children and husband really made the most of the games room. It was a wrench to leave- it has become one of my goto-to-get-away places - I would encourage all families to book with complete confidence. NB- don’t take supermarket eggs and sausages- Sue’s are fabulous. Thankyou, Jo

Lovely holiday, made very welcome by the owners.. Great to see the animals every day, 2 calves were born on our first day too! Cosy cottage, with everything you need, washing machine and tumble dryer are shared and donation to be to use them, but no hassle with this. Games room was very spacious and had lots to do if needed.

We booked our Sykes holiday for two weeks, the first week to be spent with our family including two grandchildren, and the second week with old friends.. The cottage 'Battens' at Northleigh Farm, Colyton, Devon was very well equipped, we could have had a party for a dozen people or more! Our hosts Sue and Simon Potter could not have been more friendly or helpful. We were blessed with lovely weather and the children enjoyed free range of the garden and loved helping to feed the chickens. The play barn was well used, but would really have come into its own if the weather had been bad. We enjoyed trips to the beach, river boat ride, kite flying, picnics and building happy memories. The second week was more sedate with adult pursuits, A la Ronde, a National Trust property was a delight; encounters with cows in the narrow lanes and meeting a bus coming the other way caused much laughter. We were lucky to be in time for the Honiton Show, and found places to eat, although these had to be researched as nowhere immediately close by. Only thing missing was a pub in the village. We would be happy to recommend this cottage to our friends, and may even return another time.

Northleigh Farm is a little gem.. Battens is a cosy, warm, secluded retreat with a lovely patio view over the fields. Sue and Simon, the owners are delightful and my son loved feeding the animals and collecting the eggs. The games room on site is a real bonus for children and adults alike. A great little base for exploring Devon, good walks, interesting museums and beautiful coastal towns.
