This was our third stay on a Feather Down Farm and by far the best with a great location, an absolutely stunning view and Edward was the most friendly and caring host all through the week. The kids loved playing with Edwards labrador Harvey each day until everyone was out of breath 😄 This location offers an absolutely one off view and a lot of lovely things to do in the Devon area.
