Hedgehog Hideaway

Beautiful well equipped cottage in a lovely quiet village.

The only issue we had was that all the information on the booking related to Hedgehog Hideaway but this is not listed on the entrance to the estate as it's known as 1 Penhaven Barns. Would happily come back

The bed and pillows were comfy, the shower nice and roomy.

Cream tea and milk very welcome. Central to the areas we wished to visit. The local pub, Bell Inn, was fantastic. However, the cottage needs a good clean, cobwebs, dust and general grime. The garden needs weeding to make it pleasant to sit out. Serving dishes/pasta dishes need to be added.

Loved our stay!

A great base for exploring north Devon Would highly recommend

The cottage is well designed and tastefully decorated.

However when comparing it to the many others we have stayed in it is lacking a few basics. There was no hand soap in the bathroom or kitchen. Also no anti bacterial spray or wipes to clean the work surface and no paper kitchen roll. It is also usual to have salt & pepper, general glasses and a cork screw. My main concerns are that there was no anti slip mat in the shower, I am sure this is something that should have been thought of in a risk assessment. Also no oven gloves. The lack of oven gloves was mentioned in a review in April and it is now July! The general cleanliness wasn’t great - lots of cobwebs around doors and windows and in the bottom of the log burner. Also I don’t think the kitchen floor had been cleaned. The village of Parkham however is lovely. There is a really good butchers and would highly recommend The Bell Inn for delicious food and hospitality. !

We had a lovely time at Hedgehog Hideaway.

We really appreciated the cream teas left for us when we arrived. We visited lots of impressive beaches and beautiful villages. We will deffinitely be down for another holiday soon. Purely for the owners information: when it rains water comes in onto the top log burner. It didn’t affect us during our stay as the weather was good.

Lovely accommodation and in a very pretty village setting.

Had most of the things needed, but perhaps a couple of pasta bowls, a large serving dish and a pan stand could be provided. The bed was very comfortable and there is ample storage. The outside area at the rear wasn't great on arrival - we had to clean the chairs and table and weed out the garden as the weeds were tumbling on to the patio area. However, it was a terrific base for our 10 day visit to Devon and we were able to visit some beautiful towns/villages in the area. We'd certainly return.

Hedgehog hideaway was a lovely cottage It was so clean and very well equipped It was located in a nice area within reach of the main tourist attractions

A very quiet peaceful getaway for the weekend.

The cream tea for two & the milk in the fridge was a lovely suprise, particularly because I had forgotten to pack any milk

The cottage itself was lovey and clean but the courtyard could do with a tidy up and the black bin had not been emptied, overall we had a lovely stay it was so peacful.

A suggestion that could help in the kitchen would be a pair of oven gloves and everyday glasses for juice/cold drinks. We will definately look at booking to stay here again in the future.

No drinking glasses which was odd.

Customer service not good for getting back or accuracy. Cottage and Location lovely

The accomodation that I booked with Sykes was called Hedgehog hideaway the name on the accomodation door was Hedgehog Highway a little confused on arrival but the key code worked.

The accomodation was lovely, tidy and clean, everything provided for a short break. No complaints whatsoever just a couple of notifications, the log burner flu was leaking when it rained but didn't cause a problem. The outside patio light didn't work and the area needed a bit of an Autumn weed and tidying up. A lovely stay had by all.

lovely cottage, welcoming cream tea in the fridge a lovely added touch which we appreciated.

Everything provided including washing machine and dishwasher. clean and tidy. unfortunately the wifi service wasn’t working when we were there it was reported but wasn’t repaired and this did impact our stay so we left earlier than expected.

Excellent holiday property, clear instructions for an easy arrival, modern style in a traditional building, carefully designed to be in keeping with the local area.

All facilities were new, the grounds were well kept set in a beautiful village The ideal location to go site seeing as a central point * The only focus area to look at was the windows needed cleaning, this is a challenge in a rural area as we know, but other than that a fabulous , enjoyable place to stay. Thank you.

The Cottage is tucked away in Parkham,and access is difficult on the narrow roads in and out,caution needed.

The Cottage is lovely,and clean and comfortable. We had a couple of small issues which were very quickly resolved.We suggested that there needs to be a general instructions book for all amenities,and dealing with rubbish removal etc. Our Dachshund Harry also enjoyed our stay.
