Everything you could want from a cottage
Staying here for a week, this cottage has everything you could ask for, it is warm, there is plenty of hot water, it is cosy, charming, there is even a kettle upstairs for your morning cup of tea , hot water bottle, hair dryer, sewing kit. A beautiful location with a quick walk to the local pub, which serves good food! An excellent comfortable bed ! I came because I thought it was good value, I will come back because it is everything you could wish for!

Lovely cottage, in a perfect location, ideal for our needs. Very clean and tidy with a nice enclosed garden to relax in.
Lovely location in the centre of Exmoor, ideal for walkers and coastal lovers alike.
The cottage was just what we wanted, peaceful, clean, tidy, comfortable and relaxing and just a stones throw away from the beautiful village of Exford.

The definition of perfection? Staying at Court Farm, Exford.
Imagine the deep silence of the moor. Swifts, house martins, swallows surf the sky. A cuckoo calls in the early morning. At night, the wavering call of a tawny owl confirms it's territory. All this is yours at Court Farm.
I stayed in Snowdrop Cottage for 6 days. The sun shone (cannot be guaranteed). The welcome was warm, the cottage light and comfortable, the situation perfect for an evening stroll beside the river which led to the excellent " White Horse" pub! All of this IS GUARANTEED.
Take a dog and he/she will think it's arrived in doggy heaven

We have arrived home this afternoon after a great week spent at Snowdrop Cottage-part of Court farm.
We have a great time spent in the glorious countryside of Somerset and Devon-with our two dogs jess and jock we have walked driven and stood and looked at some fantastic scenery and locations.
We have eaten at some great pubs and feasted on the hospitality offered by all we have been to.id
In all its been a fantastic week and we can only say a big thank you to David for his hospitality at Court Farm and providing us with Snowdrop cottage to stay in..

Gorgeous cottage - cozy, warm and perfect location!
We stayed here for a week after christmas with our dog, Jessie. It was a perfect location for hiking, mountain biking and getting away from City life. We would love to come back in the spring / summer. It's great that you can walk into Exford village from the cottage in about 7 minutes - the village has two pubs, a tearoom and small grocery store. All the locals we met were very friendly and welcoming.

Very pleasant and enjoyable stay.
In spite of very wet weather, we had a very enjoyable stay at Snowdrop Cottage. We were made welcome by David, the owner, who was on hand and very helpful if we needed anything throughout the weekend. The cottage is ideal for relaxing and is well set up. It is ideally located for exploring the nearby Exmoor Forest and North Somerset Coast. In particular we appreciated the welcome given to our dog! Many thanks.

Lovely quiet getaway
We were greeted very warmly by David on arrival who promptly introduced himself and showed us to our cottage. It's a lovely one bedroom property with everything you could possibly need. The village is home to a couple of pleasant pubs, a post office and a little convenience store. Snowdrop cottage is the perfect size for a couple to enjoy a getaway and we will certainly be returning for another well deserved break in the future.
