Far from the madding crowd

Review Submitted: 06 August 2012 Date of Stay: July 2012
In a word 'perfect' , in detail. . . house was fantastic very spacious,clean,tidy with everything you need set in the most wonderful position with stunning views. Even though our weather was not great it did not stop us enjoying our holiday. The house is ideally located for both north & south coasts with Bude just a short distance away & if you havn't been to Clovelly before then i highly recommend it. We were a group of eight with an age range of 4 to 78 & we all had a great time. Hestor, the owner, is lovely & was always around for advice.
Thanks Hestor

An idyllic taste of real country life

5 out of 5
Review Submitted: 14 December 2011 Date of Stay: June 2010
We had a long stay at Heslden and fell in love with the beautiful views of Dartmoor, the absolute peace and quiet, the magnificent ancient trees and flower-filled hedgerows lining the stunning hill and valley walks, and all the domestic and wild animals we met along the way. The house is very roomy, comfortable and characterful, ideal for family celebrations and putting up groups of friends. Dinner at the great oak table, with candles, was spectacular! We enjoyed the log fire on chilly nights and some terrific garden barbecues under the stars when the weather warmed up. Hester is a cheery and knowledgeable hostess, helping us find our way around the area to the best walks and day trips, from Dartmoor to Clovelly to Boscastle and Tintagel. Best of all was simply stepping out of the door and being free to roam over the peaceful fields and lanes. A wonderful place, thoroughly recommended.

Friendly Farmhouse

Review Submitted: 14 April 2009 Date of Stay: April 2009
We spent Easter Break here, a group of 8 people, the rooms are large and spacious and well laid out. The kitchen is very well equipped and a great space for cooking in. The location of the farmhouse is perfect for getting to the hidden treasures along the Devonshire and Cornish coast line. Hester is friendly and very helpful and will tell you all the great places to go and visit.

Review Submitted: 12 August 2008 Date of Stay: August 2008
Happy to recommend this property. Ideally located for exploring north devon and cornwall. Property was very clean on arrival and the owner is very friendly and approachable. Kitchen extremely well equipped and roomy. Superb dining area - lovely for all the family to be able to sit round for a meal. Plenty of land for kids to run about (big field adjacent to property, ideal for games, kite flying etc). All in all very happy with standard of accommodation, price and locality.
