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.

Honestly, everything was spot on. We had a great stay and wouldn’t hesitate to book again. The only thing that could improve is clearer directions-maybe a map or grid reference instead of just written instructions. Still, highly recommended!

A great spot for unwinding, really peaceful and super convenient too.

Date of stay: 27th September 2019
From the moment we arrived and were welcomed by Caroline, we knew we were in for a good stay. We stayed in Otter Cottageand honestly, it was spotlessly clean and felt really cosy. The owners have thought of pretty much everything - the kitchen was fully equipped, with a dishwasher and washing machine that proved to be super handy. We even found a bottle of prosecco chilling in the fridge, which was a lovely touch! The cottage also has two smart TVs with access to Netflix and other streaming services, which came in very handy since the weather was quite rainy most of the time. We loved relaxing in the hot tub - it’s much bigger than others we’ve been in before, so plenty of room for everyone. If I had to pick a tiny gripe, it would be that an ironing board would’ve been useful, but the welcome book mentioned you can request one, so no big deal. The location was a bit remote - in the middle of nowhere, really. On one hand, that’s quite peaceful, but it did mean it took a while to get anywhere, especially since most roads are country lanes and quite narrow. Definitely need a sat nav to avoid getting lost! We spent some time at the nearby beaches, mostly pebble ones, which were lovely. Exeter was about 30-40 minutes away and made for a nice day trip. Now, I’ve got to mention something that wasn’t the owners’ fault at all - we encountered an absolute plague of crane flies, or daddy long legs, during our stay. It honestly felt like a biblical plague! We’re pretty sure it had to do with breeding seasonand taking into account that we were on a working farm, there wasn’t much we could do about it. We couldn’t keep the windows or doors open much, which made the inside quite stuffy. They also seemed to be attracted to the hot tub when we were using it, which was a bit annoying. But again, this isn’t a reflection on the owners or the cottage - just a natural hiccup. Overall, we had a lovely break and really enjoyed our time away. Would definitely recommend!

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.

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.
