Yawl House is wonderful. It’s characterful, warm, spacious. Richard generously left flowers, cake, fruit and wine for our group, such a thoughtful gesture. The house is well provided and we had a wonderful 3 days.

We had an extended family holiday at Yawl house, plenty of space for all. Friendly owners on hand if we needed, which we didn’t as everything was perfect. Great location and the welcome pack was a thoughtful touch. The history of the house was very interesting. I would recommend the donkey sanctuary near Sidmouth and the many beaches nearby. I would highly recommend Yawl House.
