Our Favourite Places to Eat in Devon

We had such a wonderful relaxed and rejuvenating stay with you. We loved Orchard Lodge and look forward to staying there again in the not too distant future. The set up was perfect for our little granddaughter and she adored the daily visits by your delightful pigs to the fence round the garden for some vegetable peelings and a good scratch! You have made such a wonderful holiday set up and we were very happy to combine days just relaxing at Flear Farm combined with a couple of short days out at Dartington, Totnes, and Blackpool Sands. Such a lovely holiday! 

We just wanted to write to thank you for what was a wonderful week away at the haven of Flear Farm. The way you have thought of just about everything made our time with you even more enjoyable than expected! The cottages are beautifully furnished and decorated, and equipped with everything we possibly needed. And absolutely spotlessly clean, which given we arrived on what I think was the hottest day of the year so far at that point, would have been no mean feat!

Your grounds and facilities surpassed our expectations and are wonderful, and enabled us to make some really special memories on our family holiday. What was a particularly nice surprise as well was how the intimate (and yet totally spacious!) nature of the site allowed us to meet and have conversations with so many of the other like-minded guests in the same stage of family life as us, even swapping numbers with some!

I really appreciated all of your pre-arrival communication too, it was very thorough and helpful. And we made use of and enjoyed some recommendations of places to eat (the local pub down the road was fab!). 

A note to say a thank you for our lovely stay in Cartwheel Cottage. We were blown away by your beautiful farm and the holiday cottages. The attention to detail and facilities are exceptional. 

Our children had an absolutely magical time on the farm with Wayne, on the trampoline and in the play barn. We had tears as we left today which has never happened before! 

Dear Camilla and Barney, 

Thank you for having us, we all had a fab time, especially my son who is now a trampoline addict.

It really was as wonderful as we remembered it and we look forward to coming back many times in the future and I’m sure our children will grow up to have magical memories of adventures at Flear Farm as we do.

Many thanks.

Thank you, we had a lovely time thank you and we were really impressed with your venue.  Noah loved the play barn and it was just a shame we couldn’t make more use of the pool with George having the temperature.We loved the place thank you and you and the team were very welcoming.

We will be back

Hi all,

Thank you so much for a wonderful stay.

The cottage was impeccable, a perfect balance between a home and a holiday and the facilities on site were again at such a high standard for everyone to enjoy. It is clear how well thought out and cared for Flear Farm is and we all had a wonderful time and we’re not ready to leave.

We will hopefully be back and have already begun recommending to friends.

Thanks again.

Dear Barney and Camilla,
Thank you so much for making our family Christmas weekend in Flear House so wonderful. The house is beautiful and with all the Christmas decorations and the stunning Christmas trees which you kindly provided, it was very special indeed. This was our second visit to Flear Farm and I'm sure it'll not be our last.
As always, the play barn, swimming pool, tennis courts, woodland walks etc were thoroughly enjoyed by all. Merry Christmas to you and the boys.

We all had the most wonderful week, and for a three generation family that is certainly an achievement. I truly think you have thought of everything and we all really appreciated the high quality of everything in the house, from kitchen appliances to bathrooms and to beautiful beds and bedding. Everything in the house, combined with the fantastic facilities around the site, made for a truly wonderful and relaxing week. The grandchildren had a brilliant time with the play barn, the indoor pool and meeting the animals. The lovely weather was also a bonus and we were able to make full use of the pool and barbeque. 

Thank you once again and I hope we will return in the future.

Dear All at Flear Farm

Many thanks. We had a great time. We have stopped as a family at a number of similar family holiday cottage complexes in Dorset and North and South Devon. Flear was voted by everyone as the best we have stayed at. Only problem we have is that our grandchildren loved Betty and their parents are under great pressure to have a cat!

Hello Barney and Camilla

May I say what an idyllic holiday venue you have. It is ideal for the smaller children and all 4 of our grandchildren aged from 2 to 8 loved it especially the play barn. Flear House was perfect for us and really suited the family. The peace and quiet was lovely and very safe for all the children.

Thank you for everything.

Dear Barney and Camilla

We can’t thank you enough for the wonderful holiday and warm welcome too. We will most certainly be back and are telling everyone we know who have children, that Flear Farm is unbeatable as a child friendly location. (quite apart from the beautiful location and splendid accommodation).

Thank you once again for such an exceptional experience. Hope to see you all again soon.
