About this property

The Stables on Historic North Devon Farm. Stunning Edge of Exmoor Location

The Stables is one of 5 beautiful and comfortable self catering cottages clustered around the courtyard of an historic North Devon farm. Set down a long driveway with no noise or passing traffic, Northcote Manor Farm (which was mentioned in the Domesday Book) is the perfect spot for a peaceful and relaxing break.
The Stables is a single storey cottage with a double bedroom and bunkbeds in the second bedroom. It has a cosy living/dining room with sliding doors which open out onto a sun-trap courtyard garden which is enclosed and which overlooks the main courtyard. The cottage has a fully equipped kitchen and a family bathroom.
Northcote Manor Farm offers a heated, covered swimming pool set in a beautiful walled garden as well as a games room with table tennis, pool table, table football and lots of toys and games. There is a playground and large trampoline as well as a football field for children.
The property is set in the middle of 34 acres of woods and fields including a stream and offering wonderful walking right from the cottage door. Dogs are welcome in the cottage and love the setting!
This is a great cottage for couples or families.
Travel cots and highchairs are available for our youngest guests.

Peace and quiet
We needed some help finding the place , in the end the owner came and found us and guided us to the property, the Satnav got us lost. The owner for personal reasons was not able to stay around but left us in the capable hands of Paul who was very helpful on the few occasions that we needed advice or help. The property was clean and tidy and had everything we needed. The TV and WIFI both worked well. The property had 35 acres of land to explore consisting of wooded and grassland areas although those with mobility problems would find the terrain difficult. Although the car can be bought to the properties for loading and unloading the climb to the carpark is up steps and is quite steep. The games room and swimming pool looked good although not our thing. The friendly sheep were fun and came readily when the food bag was shook.. This was a great place to stay and we would recommend it to anyone.

Perfect Little Cottage
This perfect little cottage was definitely home from home. Had everything we needed. Beautiful walks around the farm. Perfect location for lots of lovely days out. Beautiful part of the country. Will definitely be back. A big thank you to Paul who kindly removed a tick from our dog. 😁
