We are truly enjoyed our stay. The location is breathtakingly beautiful and the hosts Renate and John the kindest and most welcoming people. We are hoping to go back to the Pound Cottage in the future.

Just as expected, middle of no-where, perfect story book cottage, pond, ducks, geese, lambs, chickens. Hosts were great, cottage well equipped, beds comfortable with en-suite in each of the 2 bedrooms. The pool just topped it off, superb, thank you.

Pond cottage
The cottage was stunning. 2 large en suite bedrooms with wonderful beams on the ceiling, a big kitchen/diner and a nice lounge. All this set on a working farm. John and Renata were wonderful hosts and very attentive to every query we had. John even let us help with installing additional posts to support his fantastic tree collection and he showed us a nest if blackbirds in his tractor!

A really lovely, peaceful retreat, with a couple of niggles
We were pleasantly surprised by the peaceful location, the amazing views of Devon landscape and the lovely owners, John and Renate. On entering the property we saw that it’s bigger than it looks on pictures and was on the surface very clean. It had every piece of equipment you could imagine, especially the kitchen. It was great to have a selection of DVDS and books, cleaning equipment, a lot of storage, underfloor heating and remote control blinds. Sadly, the internet was not good enough to hold Zoom meetings but if you’re not working while staying at the cottage then you should be fine. On closer inspection, harder to reach and places could use a deep clean- the corners, high beams in the bedrooms, high shelves and sills and cupboard tops were all extremely dusty and there were a lot of cobwebs, dead insects and spiders. A deep clean once a month should do it. We loved the pool and it’s a shame the weather wasn’t better so we could use it more. We had a really nice time and would love to return, but we’d love to see the washing machine replaced as it’s very rusty and has black mould inside so the clothes we washed smelt worse afterwards. We’d also love to see the showers updated. They’re those electric showers from the 80s/90s which are either freezing or boiling with no in between. In order to find a temperature we could stand it took 15 minutes of fiddling with the dials, and next time we turned it on the settings were obsolete and we had to start the process again.

Half term family break
We all enjoyed our rural escape to Pond Cottage! John and Renate were friendly and welcoming to their beautiful farm. The boys were able to cuddle some baby goslings as soon as we arrived. We were given all the information we needed, and were free to explore. The cottage is equipped with everything you need, and is lovely inside. WI-FI is available. There is a private garden with a picnic bench in a sunny corner. The boys loved being surrounded by the animals, and feeding the ducks and geese. The swimming pool was also an added bonus, and very welcome in the sunny weather. Would definitely recommend a visit! Thank you.

Wonderful relaxing break
We managed to escape for a few days relaxation and Pond Cottage was perfect for us. A beautiful location and an ideal cottage to unwind in front of the log burner. The owners made us feel very welcome and it was lovely to chat - the cottage and farm are very well cared for and a lovely place to be. Thank you for creating such a relaxing place, we look forward to coming back.
