Fancy staying in Jemima Puddleduck or Peter Rabbit cottage anyone? Well at North Hayne Farm you can!

The cottages are set in 10 acres of stunning Devon countryside with far reaching views of Exmoor. They are all converted from former farm buildings and retain many original features such as exposed beams and latched doors. All the cottages are located around a courtyard and have their own private patio area with BBQ and garden furniture (plus a private hot tub).

The cottages are spacious, well equipped, cozy and designed with young children in mind. All the bedrooms have blackout blinds, and there is loads of baby and toddler equipment available to borrow. Families can arrange a supermarket delivery prior to their arrival, and the owners will even unpack your shopping and put it away for you!
