East Harwood Farm Cottage, Timberscombe

East Harwood Farm Cottage is secluded, and set high up in Exmoor National Park above Timberscombe. It has a tranquil setting, with stunning views. Ideal for walkers, and close to the coast. The cottage is 200 years old and adjoins the owner's farmhouse. Sorry, no under 5's. Dogs and horses welcome. East Harwood Farm Cottage near Timberscombe is a pretty cottage with countryside views from every window at the front of the house. The property is stone built and is attached at one corner to the owners farmhouse next door. The farm has a unique vantage point across the valley, with barely another property in sight. Very quiet and secluded.

Sorry, but we are unable to accept children under 5 years, as this is a working farm with ponds and livestock. We also do NOT accept smokers.

Sleeps up to 4 guests in two bedrooms - note, low occupancy discount applies only if only one bedroom is used.

Open-plan sitting room with dining table.
Wood-burner in the sitting room plus central heating throughout.
Well-equipped kitchen with modern range cooker.
One king-sized double and one twin bedroom, both upstairs.
Low-occupancy discount applicable if only one bedroom is used
Upstairs family bathroom with shower over bath.
Patio area directly outside with table and chairs.
Picnic table and barbecue for guest use on a lower lawn.

Local pub in Timberscombe (approx 1.5 miles), currently drinks only.
Wifi - but being a rural area, this is not the fastest. Outside the summer period we provide a basket of logs for the fire. Additional baskets available on-site for £5 each
Bed linen and towels are provided.

Up to two well-behaved dogs are welcome by prior arrangement and for a supplementary fee of £15 per dog. We suggest you keep an eye on your dog if they are likely to go exploring. There is access to the moors via bridle paths. For those bringing horses, it is a 20 minute hack to the moors.

If you wish to bring your horse on holiday with you there are 3 stables with rubber matting available to rent, for £20 per horse per night, with one bale of shavings included per horse. Sorry, no turnout.

To comply with the owner's insurance policy there is no access to the farm itself or the owner's garden. Please note that guests are not insured when outside the cottage.

Lovely cosy property and a warm welcome
The property was exactly as listed - perfect and cosy. The weather was unkind but this did not spoil our stay. The cottage is a great place to stay to explore Exmoor and the coastline, and then return for a warm log fire in the evening. Jane and Brian were the perfect hosts - on hand when needed for suggestions/recommendations, but unobtrusive even though are living next door. We would definitely recommend!!!

Absolutely wonderful
What's not to love about this place. The owners are just lovely, friendly and nothing is too much trouble. Add to that the cosy cottage with beautiful decor, the idyllic setting, one adorable Labrador and two gorgeous horses you have a holiday from heaven.....I'll be back!!! Xx

Perfect getaway
Just returned from a fabulous three nights in rural Somerset on the edge of Exmoor. The wood burning stove made for cosy evenings after long walks in the chilly December weather. The cottage is extremely comfortable and Jane and Brian are great hosts, full of local knowledge and recommendations for walks and eating out.
