Really enjoyed our stay. The addres is a bit tricky to find - especially in the dark! - and the written instructions did help with this, but we were coming from the other direction which made them harder to follow. The place was clean, comfortable and had everything we needed. We especially liked the fire. The only downside to our visit was that unfortunately the hot water broke, which of course is no fault of the host, and they did everything they could to make sure it was fixed again (which it was by our final day thanks to the hard work of the family!).

We had an enjoyable stay at the granary. Nice base to explore North Devon but you'll need a car. South Moulton is a ten to 15 minute drive away and the closest place with shops, markets etc.
