Cheristow Farm Cottages

The cottages have been converted from old stone farm buildings dating back to at least the 18th century and contain a lot of character. Tucked quietly down a country lane they are ideally situated whether you want to walk along the cliffs on the coast paths for dramatic and breathtaking scenery, taking it easy and getting away from the hustle and bustle of every day life or visiting the many local places of interest.

Our largest cottage with one double bedroom with a king-sized bed (and space for a cot) and one bedroom with three single beds (plus another single 'truckle' bed, if needed). On two floors, The Granary has beamed ceilings, a well-equipped kitchen, a separate dining room and a sitting room with an inglenook fireplace and wood-burning stove.

The Linhay has a double room (with space for a cot) and a twin-bedded room (that can be linked to make another double). The bath has an overhead shower. The cosy open plan kitchen/living area has a wood-burning stove and there is a sheltered outdoor sitting area on part of the former farmyard.

Guests are all welcome to use the large picnic/play area with sea views, and the Spa Room with its hot tub and sauna which is bookable by the hour for private use.We had a wonderful stay at Cheristow Cottages, couldn't have asked for a warmer welcome from Annie and her family. Stunning place, cottages are perfect- they have thought of everything!

Cheristow is close to Hartland, at the centre of The Hartland Peninsula which is known for its wildly beautiful miles of unspoilt coastline. Channel and Atlantic views from this rugged, right-angled edge of North Devon - to Lundy and beyond - are stunning. You may spot porpoises and peregrine falcons.

Cheristow is a small hamlet of two farms and four houses surrounded by fields and across the valley from Hartland (a mile-or-so away). We share a bumpy access lane which peters out into a green lane leading to the Abbey and a footpath which leads to the village of Hartland through Cheristow Woods. We send detailed directions when guests book (or see below).
