Close to all routes in East Devon, and even with the fabulous views and attractions, your car must be able to cope with loads of hills

We had a wonderful stay. Everything worked very well for us: weather; location; warm and comfortable property; sunny garden; a short walk for supermarket, fish and chips and pub; other hostelries within a short drive. On bus route to Sidmouth (and perhaps further afield). Thank you.

A comfortable well-equipped house. It's a pleasant two mile parkland green walk to the Sidmouth sea front, or there is a half-hourly bus. There is a well-stocked Spar shop within 5 minutes walk, and a Waitrose about 1.5 miles away. Plenty of places to visit by car or bus.

We have stayed here for several years, only because of its excellent location. Peaceful and of good size. Otherwise the property is of poor standard compared to other similar holiday cottages. Big screen TV and Wi-Fi and new dishwasher do not compensate for faded pictures, tired lampshades, tired mattresses on twin beds, uncomfortable sofa, crackedRead more toilet cistern and general tired state of bathroom, tired kitchen, freezer iced up, dowdy feel and decor you get the idea. I am not posting a review on trust pilot. Hide

Farthings is a bit dated perhaps even a bit quirky with one or two issues, however, if the issues were addressed the property is in its in a nice quite location at the end of the byes, with a plain south facing garden and a regular a bus service near by.
