Holiday home rentals in Devon

The Hartland peninsula in North Devon is one of the most awe inspiringly beautiful places in the world. The peaceful location, the character of the gorgeous farmhouse and the endless opportunities for countryside and coastal walks make this a perfect location for amazing landscape and seascape photography. Amazing weekend in a fantastic airbnb.

We loved staying at Sarah’s place. The location was perfect. Only a short walk to local restaurants and shops. The view from the kitchen/living area of the apartment is spectacular! The apartment was spotless and very cosy. Sarah was very helpful and left clear instructions for check in and check out. We would happily stay at Sarah’s place again, next time we visit Fowey.

Annie's co-host Vicky met us on arrival and was very helpful (in pouring rain) in showing us the accommodation. The Stable was excellent for what we wanted and very clean and well provisioned. Nothing was too much trouble for our hosts, including providing fresh mint for our new potatoes!! Overall, a great stay and very good value for money.

Really lovely place, well equipped kitchen. Beautiful views. Quiet with very friendly host. Highly recommended

We had a lovely stay at Hartwell. Cottages are spacious, peaceful and in a wonderful location. Annie and team were super. Will come back for sure. Highly recommend

We had the most wonderful week in our lovely Cheristow Cottage. Annie is a wonderful and kind host ready to help and make you feel so very welcome. The views are so beautiful and it is utterly peaceful. My girls loved feeding the pigs and chickens. Having use of the hot tub, sauna and play park feels like an amazing bonus! We are planning out next visit!

Lovely cottage for 2. Quite remote and very quiet which we liked. Sadly we didn’t get to use the spa as it got booked up but maybe next time. Annie was lovely and very helpful. Lots of local information provided including places to eat. Would definitely come again.

We had a wonderful stay at Gerard’s place. The friendly welcome and plate of warm scones seemed to set the tone. The views are amazing and it was so wonderful to just hear the sounds of nature. The space had everything we needed, and Gerard was even kind enough to get out the chairs for the patio, so that we could enjoy the afternoon sun. We would definitely return.

Sarah's beautiful annexe is located in a such lovely, peaceful area. Communication before and during our stay was top notch. Sarah was helpful and made us feel welcome. The Airbnb itself was spotlessly clean as was the hot tub, the area was so relaxing and we had everything required for a lovely 3 night getaway. The photos and the description of the place are accurate, if anything the place is bigger and even nicer in person. Directions (What3Words was great), checking in/out and all instructions were extremely clear and straight forward. My partner and I would happily stay here again in the future. Highly recommended! Thanks for having us Sarah! :-)

The chalet was a perfect location for our short break in the area. It’s well located for many of the local attractions . It’s an extremely well maintained holiday park- very quiet and peaceful and the chalet itself was warm, welcoming and exceptionally well presented.

Beryl’s cottage is an absolute gem. Spotlessly clean, incredibly spacious, and thoughtfully furnished, it made for one of the most comfortable stays we’ve had. The bed was exceptionally comfortable — we slept like logs — and the towels were luxuriously soft, a lovely touch that didn’t go unnoticed. The heating worked instantly and kept the whole place warm and cosy, even on cooler evenings. One of our favourite moments was sitting outside with a glass of wine, taking in the stunning beach view — truly peaceful and relaxing. We had zero issues throughout our stay, and it was a pleasure to meet Beryl herself — such a kind and welcoming host. If we had to mention one small suggestion, it would be the lounge chairs — they were a little on the firm side, and a two-seater sofa might make the space even more comfortable for relaxing indoors. That said, this didn’t take away from a fantastic experience. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a quiet, beachside escape.

Great place to stay within easy reach of beaches and attractions. Great for dogs as van dog friendly. Plus fantastic area for dogs to walk or run in enclosed area. Van beautifully clean and tidy. Will probably go back again.

Exactly as described. Great location and lovely private garden and hot tub. We really enjoyed our time and the recommendations and responsiveness was excellent

Mark was an extremely communicative host and he even greeted us and made us feel right at home; will definitely be coming down to stay in the boat house again ! The premises and surrounding area is beautiful

A peaceful little haven tucked away in the countryside. Definitely recommend this beautiful spot, we'd love to return one day.

We absolutely loved our stay at Gillian’s. It was so peaceful with incredible views over the local landscape. Really enjoyed watching the birds at the bird feeder and seeing the ponies! We would love to come back!

We had a lovely stay at Chelsie’s house in Appledore. We managed to drop all our bags etc off at the door before moving the car to the park. The house was exactly what we required and very close to the bus, restaurants, and seafront. Appledore doesn’t have any large food shops except John’s deli (lovely but expensive) but as we already knew this we had arranged a delivery. The house and garden room with pool table were ideal for the kids to play safely. There was some noise from the pub on the corner at night - especially when they forgot to turn the outside speakers off- but otherwise it was quiet & peaceful. There is a nice park in the town for the children. We ate in two of the local eateries and would recommend both The Yard and the Flame Factory.

As a mixed group of couples and singles in their 60s we all thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Slipway. The location only a few yards from the harbour is excellent and means you can walk around Ilfracombe very easily as well as sampling the nearby pubs, cafes and restaurants. The house itself is extremely comfortable with 5 en-suite bedrooms and a modern, well equipped kitchen and lounge. Would highly recommend for family or group getaways.

We had a fabulous time. It’s a beautiful apartment with stunning views. Host was amazing. We will definitely be back. It’s a hidden gem. The dogs loved it. They were living their best life.

Lovely holiday cottage and really friendly and responsive hosts. The house was spotless and so well equipped. The beds were really comfortable and we all slept well. The gardens and games room meant our evenings were very relaxed and the kids enjoyed the space and facilities. The attention to detail was also fabulous especially the accessibility information available which is important for us as our daughter is disabled. The online guidebook was also very helpful and we used it a lot. A lovely holiday, friendly and attentive owners, spotless house and plenty of sunshine! We really hope to return as soon as we can. Thanks Mike and Angie :)

Little Nod was the perfect place for a winter getaway. It was a little chilly so we made good use of the extra blankets and electric radiators. It was a great base for exploring sections of the coastal Footpath and the pub next door served a great roast.

Wonderful house centrally located in the beautiful church garden of St Margaret. Everything is centrally located, supermarket, good restaurants and traditional pubs. The village is very pretty and right on the waterfront. A car is not necessary. Hiking trails start right by the house and there are two ferry stations just a short distance away. The bus and the wonderful Avocet-line take you to all places in and around the Exe Estuary. The house itself is tastefully furnished in keeping with the listed building. Practical, but always true to style. We liked the large eat-in kitchen with gas oven and super equipment for cooking. All the rooms were very clean and the beds were comfortable. John was always available and very helpful. If you have difficulty with steep stairs or are very tall, the house may not be suitable. Otherwise: full recommendation. We would love to come back. A must visit: A la Ronde, the estate of the Parminster cousins, managed by the National Trust.

This was the perfect place for a family celebration. We felt totally spoilt with all the wonderful amenities in this luxury property. The pool was very popular (especially the kids) and the bbq lodge was so much fun. The owners were very helpful, everything was beautifully done and there was everything we needed. We had the best time and would absolutely love to come again. We would highly recommend to anyone looking for a real treat. Thank you so much.

We had a wonderful stay here. The house is very special - full of history and thoughtfully decorated/finished to a really high quality. The rooms are very generous with lovely bathrooms. The kitchen is well equipped. There was ample space to accommodate 12 people. The outside space is also amazing - huge garden, table tennis, badminton, tree house, trampoline, fire pit, BBQ. The location is great - only 20 mins to the coast. One thing that really stood out is how helpful and accommodating the host Rob is. I wouldn't hesitate to stay here again.
