  This was the second time that we had booked with Sykes Cottages and again it didn’t disappoint.

  The Cabin was very spacious and it had everything you could possibly want. There was parking for 3 cars although it was a bit of an art parking if yours was the third car especially when somebody had parked on the opposite side of the road to the drive. There was plenty of wardrobe space and drawers. The oven was good although food took longer to cook on the hob than it did at home. There was always hot water. There were 2 bathrooms, one with a bath and toilet and the other with a shower and toilet, the water was always hot. It had a very well equipped kitchen. There were loads of children’s games, there was even fishing nets and crabbing nets and buckets. There was a washing line with pegs. The garden wasn’t overly big but there were plenty of seats and we had the sunshine. It was situated at the top end of the High Street and was a trek to the beach, but one in the car. It was very well situated to drive to places. We went to the Wildlife and Dinosaur Park which was only a 2 minute drive away, and also Watermouth Castle which was on the way to Ilfracombe, both places were worth going to. We went to The Sandy Cove Hotel, just before Watermouth Castle and the views are stunning and their afternoon tea was scrummy. There was a lovely pub, George and Dragon, a few yards up the road, which was lovely, really good food, lovely management and staff. All in all we couldn’t have asked for better, a home from home once again. Thank you.

  The Cabin was the most well equipped place we have ever stopped.

  It was clean and tidy. Generous living/dining area. Kitchen is small but fully functional with everything you need. Electric hob took abit of getting used to, but managed it. The owner left us a little care package which was very nice of them which consisted of tea, coffee, sugar, milk, biscuits and a little gift. Main bathroom had a shower cubicle. Main bedroom was very comfortable with an ensuite bathroom (bath but no shower). 2nd bedroom was big and very comfortable with 2 double beds which could be a little awkward if adults were sharing, but fine for kids. 3rd bedroom small with a bulk bed. Good for kids, but adults wouldn't fit. Nice little garden with grass for a dog. If there was one thing they could look at was some of the doors. Particularly the main bathroom, we all got locked in at some point. Chippy over the road that's open mon-sat 5-8pm. But would recommend ordering on the Friday as it gets really busy with orders so don't allow walk ins. 2 large pubs with gardens within 2 mins walk of the cabin. Neither did food when we were there, but I think one does normally, but the chef was on holiday. Both allowed dogs. Combe Martin is small and beach wasn't the best, all pebbles, no sand. Parking is very difficult. Best to walk the 15 mins to the beach. But the Cabin is ideally situated as a base for visiting Woolacombe and Ilfracombe ect. Saunton sand was a lovely beach too. Good for body boarding and dog friendly.

  The cabin is absolutely gorgeous!

  Walking into such beautiful comfort and an amazing greeting for our holiday, Abi and Charlotte left welcome packs, items to have a good brew which was needed after a day of travelling across the country some lovely fudge and plenty of information of what to do in the area. I’ve walked past the cabin many times whilst in Combe Martin and I’m so glad myself and my partner finally stayed with our dog. We always come to visit family in the village but we normally get a dog sitter, but after the welcome we will be bringing him with us every time! Abi couldn’t have been more welcoming to and helpful and even on checkout day making sure to be as friendly and helpful as possible. We will be back again, that is if Abi and Charlotte will have us, what a beautiful property with amazing hosts, definitely recommend staying here!

  The Cabin is a home from home and I couldn’t recommend it highly enough.

  The owners Abi and Courtney were super, giving us the privacy you want but the reassurance they’re only a call away. The Cabin was beautifully clean and extremely welcoming after a long journey. An ideal base to explore North Devon with many places within a 10 to 50 minute car journey. Combe Martin is a quaint and bountiful town with very friendly locals and Ilfracombe is a must visit town just 5 minutes away. After a great day exploring the area our return to the Cabin was a welcome retreat with super facilities and space to relax and recharge for the following day. Simply the Cabin gives you everything you need as a foundation for whatever type of holiday you’re looking for, whether adventure, exploration or purely beautiful walks in stunning scenery. Will definitely return and highly recommend.

  The Cabin has everything you need for your holiday.

  Very spacious and the most important thing was a very secure garden for our dogs. Though not a problem for us the door to the back garden was through the main bedroom. Which could be a problem in the night if a dog needs to go out. The kitchen is very roomy and well equipped. Outside the cabin is the bus stop. Children do tend to congregate on the drive waiting for their school bus. Not a problem though a bit of a shock when we opened the curtains and a dozen well behaved children were standing outside the window. On arrival Abi had left us tea, coffee, sugar, fresh flowers on the dinning room table, milk and some biscuits for the dogs. Also a curtesy call mid week to see we were ok. Very much appreciated. If we visit North Devon again we would certainly like to stay at the cabin.
