Guests appreciated the comfortable accommodation, friendly hosts, and the convenience of the onsite farm shop.

Overall, the property is well-regarded for its charm, comfort, and welcoming environment.
Reviews did not mention any issues with cleanliness, and the overall tone suggests the cottage was well-maintained and comfortable. The only minor negative was the mention of wasps in the lounge, which may be a seasonal issue rather than a reflection on cleanliness.
Guests consistently praised the beautiful countryside views, peaceful setting, and proximity to nature, making the location a standout feature of the property.
The cottage was described as very comfortable, with particular mention of the cosy fireplace and relaxing atmosphere. The only minor drawback was the lack of Wi-Fi for some guests.
The onsite farm shop was highlighted as a convenient facility, and the cottage itself was described as spacious and well-equipped. However, some guests were disappointed by the absence of advertised farm activities due to regulatory changes.

West Middlewick Farm log cabins and a bungalow are located in the heart of the beautiful Devon countryside, a short drive from the town of Tiverton. Set on high ground, these lovely properties make the most of their rural setting with great views of the surrounding countryside. Each property is well appointed and the layout ensures plenty of space for all, with a wood burner to complete that homely feel, as well as a large sitting-out area looking out over the surrounding fields and countryside. The farm features five cosy log cabins and a lovingly furnished bungalow. Each property has name that ties in with the local area and its history; Dartmoor (ref UK12537), Exmoor (ref UK12539), Otter (ref UK12540), Churn (ref UK12536), Dalch (ref UK12538) and The Old Creamery (ref UK12535), which is the bungalow. Dartmoor, Exmoor and Otter have enclosed gardens which are ideal for those bringing pets.
The Old Creamery is ideal for families or a group of friends who want to get together and relax. The property has been thoughtfully and tastefully furnished to ensure a relaxing stay. This lovely bungalow also offers an enclosed patio area, perfect for al-fresco dining.
The owners of the farm are keen for guests to experience life on the farm and there are opportunities to see the cows being milked, feeding the calves and collecting eggs from the chickens. There is also an on-site shop selling local meats and other produce as well as some of the freshest milk around. Guests can enjoy the surrounding land with walks around the farm. There are well-stocked lakes for those who fancy a relaxing day of fishing.
West Middlewick Farm is located just outside the Wiltshire village of Nomansland. With well-maintained roads, the farm is in a great position to get out and about and experience all this lovely area of Devon has to offer.

Our selection of the cottage was largely based on description saying that there would be opportunities to watch the cows be milked, collect eggs, feed calves etc. when we asked about this the lady explained that the very established shop used to be the milking barn but due to government restrictions they were now no longer able to offer guests.Lovely and beautiful but very disappointed with zero opportunity to experience life on a farm.

This was an amazing time. Perfect place to get away from the city, to a farm where you can see nothing but fields and sheep for miles. The cottage itself was extraordinary, the fireplace and wooden setting really made this trip 10/10
