Ford Hill Cottage, Kentisbury, sleeps 6

Paul, Louise and Amy August 24.

This was our second time returning to Ford Hill cottage and it was just as good as the first time! The cottage was so well equipped and the welcome hamper was such a lovely touch! The games room was great fun and I enjoyed playing pool, table tennis and table football! The garden was so nice and spacious and we enjoyed playing games in it. We also watched some movies in the games room (wow! Great selection of movies!) on wet afternoons/evenings. .(I watched an Alan Titchmarsh documentary in geography at school and was delighted to watch it again with the DVD in the games room!) There were also loads of board games to enjoy and the beds were so so comfy. I also love the “Duck Island” bath products as I look for them in every hotel! My toys love the cottage. Thank you so so much I never want to leave, but I want to see my guinea pigs back home. Thank you ! Recommended places: Tunnel Beaches, Brendan Manor horse riding, Watermouth Castle, Quince Honey Farm, Combe Martin kayak tour, Depot Eatery, Pyne Arms, Ye Olde Globe pub.
