Cosy cottage but poorly equipped
A group of six stayed at Aggies cottage over October half term. The cottage is cosy and nicely decorated however the kitchen is poorly equipped - very small fridge for a group of 6; no dishwasher; and not very well supplied with cooking and eating implements. Apart from this the cottage is in a nice location, close to both Ilfracombe and Woolacombe.

Great Family Holiday in North Devon
We loved the cosy cottage feel of the property which is actually really spacious inside and never seemed crowded with 4 adults and 2 children. The set up on the farm is excellent with good access, parking and a beautiful garden with children's playpark built in. The location was great with excellent access to lots of North Devon beaches and nearby national trusts, as well as a really quick drive into Ilfracombe for shops and food. The shared beach/surf equipment that was available to borrow was a hit with the children.

Lovely cottage, very clean .Tina and husband were lovely.
Location was ideal , definitely need a car . Views were fabulous the cottage was very equipped but the door to the barbecue was a stable door that you couldn’t lock the two halves together so watch if you open and move the mat at the same time ouch when you catch your head. Will go again earlier in the season as we encountered quite a bit of rain . Heat find for families

Beautiful North Devon Half Term Holiday
Had an absolutely brilliant time staying in Aggie's Cottage for the October half term holiday. The cottage is lovely, well equipped, cosy and warm with fantastic gardens for the children to play out in. We were very lucky with good weather for most of the week so we were able to fully explore the area with it's beautiful coastline and amazing beaches. Kathy and Tim were very welcoming and helpful hosts with great recommendations for things to do and places to eat. We'll come again for sure.

Good location, Lovely property.
We stayed in Aggies Cottage for the first week in July... Lovely accomodation, fantastic weather and a good location, close to Ilfracombe and Woolacombe. The property is well maintained, has quirky features, we found it clean and had everything we needed... Apart from a dishwasher... ! A bit disappointed by that since it was included in the property details. The garden is huge, and kept nicely... We feel the outdoor seating could be more " user friendly " ... Tradional deckchairs are nice, but not the easiest or most comfortable for ladies of a certain age ! We would definitely recommend the property... The owners were welcoming and there was a cream tea awaiting us on our arrival... Very nice... Thank you.

Zu schön um wahr zu sein
Wir fanden ein perfektes Cottage in einem idyllischen Garten vor. Die Vermieter waren sehr nett und hatten sich schon um alles gekümmert, Scones und Clotted Cream standen schon auf dem Tisch. In nur 5 Minuten war man im nächsten Ort, zum Woolacombe Beach war man ca 15 Minuten unterwegs. Seit 15 Jahren fahren wir regelmäßig nach England und haben schon in verschiedenen Orten in verschiedenen Cottages gewohnt. Die Lage von Aggies Cottage war bisher die schönste! Wir kommen auf jeden Fall zurück.
