Our second visit to West Down. This time we took a friend as well. Brenda and Roger are fantastic hosts. Nothing is too much trouble. Brenda always provides lovely food and Roger provides the laughter. Room was spotless with everything you could possibly need for your holiday. We can't wait to return.

Our first stay here and we found the room (Swallow) well adapted for my wife who has limited mobility. We had a delightful time, very relaxing location and atmosphere with plenty of opportunity to photograph birds feeding. A convenient location for discovering the delights of North Devon. Brenda and Roger are excellent hosts.

We have had three visits all brilliant. The food is really good and Brenda and Roger are such great hosts. We will be going again but must try out a different time of the year. Hopefully we will be able to sit out in the garden and enjoy the lovely view.

We have been coming for 14 years and this was the best holiday yet. Brenda's food is always good but she tried out some new recipes this year and they were even better than usual. We had our 3 year old granddaughter with us and there was another young child and Amy did a wonderful Egg Hunt for them and... More

Everything about the visit was excellent. The room was lovely, everything provided that you would need ,really comfortable bed and lovely hosts that couldn't do enough for you.Great breakfast provided that kept you going all day with produce used from the farm itself that morning. Would liked to have stayed longer.

This was our tenth or eleventh annual golf trip (May 2012), mostly to France but recently to the west country. Eight golfers from Southerndown all thought it was the nicest accommodation and best food of any of the trips. If Roger and Brenda could have sorted out the weather it would have been unbeatable!

A last minute holiday booking found thro Devon Farm Holidays. After reading their reviews and Trip advisor, decided we could not miss the opportunity. We were not disappointed and it lived up to all the previous reviews we had read! 5* in every way especially Roger and Brenda's friendly welcome and service, not only brilliant food but kept us entertained...

From the moment we arrived and saw the magnificent display of flowers we knew we were in for a treat. The cream tea on arrival was a lovely touch. Our wheelchair accessible room had everything we could possibly want. We loved meeting the other guests with pre-dinner drinks which was a great 'ice breaker' and dinner was a laugh a... More
