What our customers say about their holidays

  If you are looking for excellent accommodation in beautiful surroundings then The Orchard is the place to be!

  On arrival we were greeted by the owners (Peter and Jackie) who made us feel very welcome . It was such a lovely surprise to enter the kitchen area to see a lovely cream tea waiting for us and fresh flowers ! When you have travelled a long journey the last thing you want to do is to dash out to the nearest shop to buy essentials . However this wasn’t necessary as there was bread, milk , eggs and other essentials ready and waiting ! There is so much to see and do within only a few miles of the accommodation . There is local bike hire, lovely villages ( with good pub food ). We have teenage children and were spoilt for choice on theme parks. Bude beach is great and well worth a visit . The icing on the cake was discovering that Peter and Jackie also have dog kennels. We have a 7 month old puppy called Willow and up until that point we had never left her with anyone . However , the kennels were really spacious and the fee very reasonable . It was quite obvious that Peter and Jackie are dog lovers so it was nice to know our willow was well cared for whilst we had a couple of trips out without her. We had a wonderful holiday and will definitely be returning.

  We had a brilliant holiday at the Orchard in Oakhampton in Devon the owners Jackie and peter were lovely and made us feel very welcome and they were always around if we needed to ask then for their advice on anything .

  They even looked after our dog for the day and evening when we need to go back home as it was a blisteringly hot week . We loved everything about it the cottage and the location was perfect. Very clean ..and kept us cool considering we were there for the hottest week of the year ! Inside it is very comfortable and cosy and would also be lovely in winter which we might book next if covid carries on ! The spa was a great hit with my husband son and niece …I preferred a chill down by the little shed at the bottom of the property watching the sun go down . There are also chickens and we received fresh eggs when we arrived with a cream tea which was a lovely surprise after the long journey down .. Ask Peter about the the hidden quiet walk which seems to be in the middle of nowhere where if you are lucky you can see wild horses and also paddle in the stream Accessible near the red postbox just down the road ! I would not hesitate in recommending this holiday cottage at any time of the year. Thank you both for a wonderful holiday <3 x

  Well what can we say about this amazing property.

  Peter and Jackie are perfect hosts. Luddon Farm and Orchard Cottage is a peaceful and tranquil haven. Its quaint and quirky layout and decor was perfect. Such a Gem of a place, so glad we found it! Would love to return some time soon. The owners are so thoughtful they make you feel so welcome and let you settle in and explore this idyllic setting. Giving you lots of little pointers to make your stay even more relaxing and smooth running. Nothing was too much of a problem! Even our little dog, who can be a little protective, nervous or over excitable at times; where new things and places are involved loved his stay. He was intrigued by all the other animals on the farm. None of us wanted to leave including our two older teenage kids. That is saying something, as they are sometimes difficult to please not always wanting to do the same thing. The Hot tub made a wonderful addition to the holiday, which was another thing we all thoroughly enjoyed!

  We loved this cottage, it was so quirky but so cosy.

  We originally booked it because it had a hot tub, but we were so snuggled, comfy & cosy that we didn't get round to using it, so we will definitely be back. I could live in it permanently xx Peter and Jackie our hosts were lovely and so helpful and the extras that we were not expecting were amazing. Along with tea and coffee making facilities, they left us milk, bread, butters, sauces, jams, crisps, chocolates, a complete cream tea ( so nice) a bottle of Prosecco, orange juice plus much more that I can't remember. The bathroom had every toiletry a lady would need amazing, plus robes for use with the hot tub. As we stayed there over the Christmas period, it was all decorated beautifully, we had a Christmas in the entrance hall and another huge one in the lounge. With the fairy lights and the log burner, we were in heaven. I can not praise this cottage or our hosts enough. 5 STARS... 10/10 Thank you xx

  The owners were incredibly welcoming!

  They made sure the cottage was warm on our arrival and stocked with bread and milk, scones with jam and cream, and all sorts of extras we didnt expect. Also we had other things like a towel for the dog, and a bowl which we weren't expecting either and the owners left us a bone for our dog also. The cottage was lovely, and very clean and cosy. The area was beautiful and we couldn't have asked for more! The owners were on hand always should we need anything extra, and made sure we were ok for logs for the fire etc. They also said we didn't need to rush to leave which was really nice. We struggled to get our dog to leave when we came home! I think he wanted to move in. Perfect place I would definitely recommend, and I'm quite critical and difficult to please but I always appreciate good service but this was definitely beyond good service. Faultless!!!
