We spent a week in pitch back on arrival we were greeted by the owner which was a nice touch. On entering the cottage we were straight away very impressed. They had supplied, tea, biscuits (and for the dog) soap, washing up liquid, things that sometimes you can forget to bring. There were blankets and towels for the frog too. Outside was beautiful, just fields as far as you could see. It was very quiet and just what we needed to relax from our busy lives. I would definitely stay again.

We had a great stay and enjoyed every day at this tranquil site.The owner Glen was very welcoming.All was clean and tidy with all the equipment and utensils for our needs and coffee and tea waiting for us when we arrived.The little garden by the terrace could be closed off so our little dog could roam freely, which was great.There are also great dog walks only a few minutes away like Wayford Woods, Bincompe Beeches etc.We definitely recommend Pich Pack for people who enjoy a quite and easy going holiday.
