This was a peaceful location for an overnight stay and we loved the area around Kate's Farm. Beautiful countryside and an interesting old farmhouse made our stay a happy one. Kate made the most delicious breakfast and we were comfortable for our one night stay in this fabulous farmhouse.

It was a very pleasant place, a bit surprised to have a room down stairs where our door was right next to the breakfast tables / lounge area. I felt we didn't have any privacy and I found myself whispering, although no one could probably hear us. The bedroom itself was clean and we had a door that went straight into the garden. The bedroom layout was a bit weird though. Nothing that is detrimental but odd. The toilet and sink were in one room with the kettle and tea/coffee, then the 'bedroom' in the centre and the shower and wardrobe on the other side of the room in another little room. Like I said it wasn't bad and wouldn't stop me going there again it just seemed the bathroom was in 2 halves! Sadly, the hot water failed but we were offered to use a shower in another room. Breakfast was wonderful. Kate is lovely. The dogs are gorgeous and in general the place/farm is a very pleasant environment.

Great stay with Kate at her farmhouse Bed and Breakfast. She's a lovely character and it's a beautiful farm set in the Devon countryside.

This is a character property with some interesting features.We arrived early but this was not a problem, and were warmly welcomed by Kate. The accommodation was just what we wanted for an overnight stay. We enjoyed our breakfast which was nicely cooked and presented. We would not hesitate to stay there again.

Kate welcomed us and advised about local dog walks. We really enjoyed meeting her, sharing some food and wine. The sitting room with leather sofas and wood burning stive was a wonderful space to relax and watch TV after a long drive.

Kate was such a lovely host and super welcoming to myself and my dog. Sadly due to the heating in my room not working, and having only a little electric heater that kept sparking at me, it was absolutely freezing in my room. The surrounding fields and surrounding acres did mean absolutely beautiful walks during the day though!

Offbeat and full of character.
If you like the reassurance of the type of accommodation you find at a Premier Inn or Holiday Inn then this is not the place for you. But if you want something a bit offbeat where your children can relax and have fun and you are prepared to chat to other guests and to your host Kate then Kates Farm House will make you feel very welcome. Its situated in a lovely rural spot well away from the holiday beaches and crowded car parks so its great at the end of the day to come back to and relax. Some may find it a bit dated but the house has a lot of character so don't expect clinical and 5 star and you wont be disappointed. Our grandchildren aged 5 and 8 loved it.

Rustic & Rural.
Quite rustic, which was expected as it is a farm but some aspects are due an update. Kate is very helpful and pleasant and her two dogs Maisy and Rambo are delightful. Access to the farm is by single track road, go in a small car if you can :)

Thank you very much for your review. The lane is big enough for a milk tanker. The property dates from the 16th century so definitely not modern. Do have inside toilets now. Best wishes Kate

Perfect stay in a beautiful area
We had a wonderful stay. Kate was very knowledgeable about the area and helped us make decisions on what we should do in the day. Cooked breakfast in morning was delicious and set us up for our days out in Lyme Regis which was only a 10 min drive down the road. Idea location and brilliant service. Would highly recommend.
