Thimble Cottage is the perfect getaway.
Thimble Cottage is the perfect getaway. It’s located in a really pretty valley with plenty of walks. The cottage is immaculately clean , the super king bed really comfortable and the kitchen is well equipped. Owners, Heather and Peter throw in a lot of extras and keep guests up to date with village events. Every imaginable tv viewing is available, so if the weather is typically English, you can catch up on box sets. We would highly recommend Thimble Cottage.

An outstanding well appointed cottage, with everything you need to enjoy a relaxing time deep in the beautiful North Devon countryside and rugged coastline. The upside down cottage is well equipped, clean and has a lovely big bed and good size bathroom. The garden is adequate, has patio area garden chairs and a good BBQ. Thimble is positioned 5 minutes walk from local amenities including a couple of pubs, local shop and fish & chip shop! Plenty of beautiful coastline and wooded walks surround Thimble cottage, and with Bude and Bideford only 30 minutes away options for days out are plentiful. The owners take great care and pride in ensuring the cottage is clean and well maintained. Perhaps a little expensive, bit then you pay for what get! In conclusion, we could not fault Thimble, and we thoroughly enjoyed our peaceful relaxing stay in Hartland. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo

A beautiful tiny”thimble” cottage in a lovely peaceful setting.
A beautiful tiny”thimble” cottage in a lovely peaceful setting. We were the first in after opening following lockdown so a few things removed. We wanted for nothing ...all you could need was there. Upside down living was nice as we have lived in similar...works perfectly for access to the gardens. We were blessed with the weather so enjoyed the outside,an orchard garden out of one door,fully enclosed for the dogs,with seating and shade if you needed it. A further patio with seating outside another door,leading on to a lovely grassed area (not enclosed). The bedroom downstairs was a good size with the bathroom leading off. Water pressures good for a lovely shower. All bedding and towels were quality. The hallway access was tiled with a basket with doggie towels and bowls. What really topped it all was the communication with the owners,they genuinely care about you being comfortable and having a good time. A lovely surprise of gifts too was really appreciated. The village was maybe not at its best but this was to be expected under the circumstances,not all pubs open and those that were offering limited services. We did visit one and sit outside and the local shop and post office were friendly and helpful. Review independently collected and verified by Reevoo
