Date of stay: 3rd January 2020
On arrival we were greeted by Caroline, who gave us a quick tour. The cottage was very warm and cosy, with underfloor heating. We each had a dressing gown and slippers, perfect for going to and fro the hot tub. The hot tub was ready to use when we arrived, which was perfect after our journey.
Larkshayes cottages are a little touch of heaven.

Date of stay: 21st October 2019
100% everything was perfect. Highly recommened. Would not hesitate to book again.
Only thing that would help is better directions i.e. a map or OS grid reference, rather than the written directions as they assume you are coming in from one direction only.

Highly recommended for a quiet weekend away. Perfect location to relax

On arrival we were greeted by Caroline and first impressions were great. We stayed in otter cottage and the cottage was clean and tidy. The owners have thought of everything, the kitchen is well equipped and includes a dishwasher and washing machine which were a god send and there was a bottle of prosecco in the fridge which was a lovely surprise. The cottage has 2 smart TVs with access to Netflix etc which was very handy as it rained a lot during our stay so was nice to be able to catch up on some box sets in our free time. Hot tub was great and very big compared to others places we have stayed. The only thing that would of been handy is an ironing board in the lodge but in the welcome book it states that there is one available on request. The cottage is kind of in the middle of no where which on one hand was nice but took a while to get anywhere as there is only country lanes and a lot of them are very tight so be careful and you definitely need a sat nav for getting around. Most of the beaches we visited were pebble. Exeter 30-40 mins away and a nice day out.
Our only criticism and this does not reflect on the owners or the cottage as it is in the hands of nature but whilst we stayed there was what can only be described as an infestation of Crane flies/daddy long legs!! It felt like it was part of the biblical 10 plagues of Egypt! It must of been breeding season for them and giving note to the fact that we were staying on a working farm there is not a lot we could do and accepted it for what it was but we were unable to keep the windows and doors open which lead to a lot of stuffiness inside and they were attracted to the hot tub when we were using it which was annoying. However, as mentioned this has no reflection on the owners or lodge.
Overall a lovely stay and nice break away!

The Otter cottage was ideal for the two of us, hot tub under the stars was amazing and so quiet as only neighbours around were the cattle and sheep. We have already booked the cottage again for next year, we loved this place so much.

We first stayed at Yarty cottage 4 years ago and have just returned from our second stay. We were happy to find it just as we remembered. We had a lovely stay once again, peaceful and relaxing with outstanding views, but sadly the week flew by rather too quickly. I’m sure we will be planning another stay in the future.
MARIE
Fantastic holiday everything you could need all there for you .I would recommend this holiday let to anyone .

Lovely stay , beautiful scenery, lovely cottage , bed rather hard and sofa very uncomfortable
Brittany
Loved our stay in Corry Brook Cottage. Beautiful, clean and throughly stocked cottage. Loved having a full kitchen, wifi and a hot tub. Location was very quiet and calm. Just an easy 20-30 minute drive to beautiful locations like Lyme Regis. The owners were extremely helpful and kind!
Dawn
What a wonderful place to stay. Everything was clean and comfortable. Large hot tub was amazing. Quiet location, beautiful scenery. Lots of places to visit nearby. Owner informative and friendly. If your looking for abit of luxury away from it all I would definitely give this place a try!
Oliver
Just arrived back after a fantastic stay in Otter Cottage. Peter and Caroline, the owners, were very welcoming and introduced us to the place and told us everything we needed to know. In the lodge there was an information book which told us everything we needed to know about the local area. The accommodation was perfect, it was clean, comfy and cosy. The Hot tub was a treat and the views were lovely, it was really quiet and peaceful. Overall a fantastic stay and we couldn't have asked for anything more. Would highly recommend staying here and would return.
Karen
Weekend away with Mum & two sisters can’t recommend this accommodation enough 2nd stay & did not disappoint. You won’t be disappointed.
Hannah
Situated in a great location as there is so much to do locally and further a field. Amazing views at the site make it for the most perfect spot.
