The Old Dairy

What a wonderful place to stay, everything you could need or want was catered for.

Beautifully clean, comfortable beds, cosy accommodation, private enclosed garden, paddock to exercise the dog and great couple running the show, providing good knowledge of the local area. Would recommend the Kingfisher for eats and the Garden Shop for cream teas and cakes . We will be back , thanks John and Sarah .

The cottage was lovely, clean and tidy with cream tea and welcome from owner.

its quiet and peaceful, for us the beds were a little to soft but that is our preference, otherwise everything fine. Owners very friendly and helpful.

The Old Dairy is a superb cottage with everything you could ask for.

The owners are super friendly and helpful if you need anything. Love the location and the whole set up of the cottages and the surroundings. Will definitely be returning.

The Old Dairy was an unexpected find.

What a delight. Tranquil and beautiful. John and Sarah have taken great care to provide everything you need for a short or longer stay. There was even a very much appreciated Devonshire cream tea waiting for us when we arrived. We took our 7 month puppy with us and found dog bowls, a towel and a lead. There is an amazing enclosed field attached to the farm which is fantastic for dogs to run around. The immediate garden is also enclosed behind a small gate. Parking on site also. The lanes around are very narrow but you get used to driving those. Just make sure you remember the last passing point ! Beautiful scenery and lots of walks around the lanes and fields. There are cows in fields so dogs must be on a lead unless you find a bridle way to walk. We would definitely recommend and stay again

A delightful, well equipped cottage in a beautiful, peaceful setting.

Perfect for a relaxing holiday. Our dog loved the dog field, a real plus!! The delicious cream tea on arrival was very enjoyable, thankyou. We will definitely be back for another visit.

Amazing cottage - well equipped and comfortable.

Loved the communal areas including a beautiful pond and covered seating area overlooking the garden. Perfect G&T spots in the evening. Great for dogs, our own fenced in area round the cottage and a great big secure field for them to have a run in. Hosts were very friendly and helpful and homemade cream tea on arrival was wonderful. We would definitely stay again.

The family including the doggies had a brilliant time.

Great location, the accommodation including facilities well maintained and spotlessly clean. Friendly hosts. Would definitely recommend. All good, thank you.

We arrived to a lovely cream tea welcome and the cottage was perfect.

Everything we needed was there, including 5days of good weather!

Beautiful cottage in a beautiful location, had a lovely holiday, delightful place to stay, had all we needed.

.

Fantastic week, the owners were very friendly and a lot of nice things to greet us .

The field was a huge bonus as both dogs were very young and could run around and play safely, would definitely recommend and wouldn’t hesitate to return.

The Old Dairy, spent a week here, amazing holiday.

Great place to stay, very friendly and helpful owners, John & Sarah. Lovely big field for dog walkies, lots of footpaths very close by, Seaton Lyme Regis Beer are close by, by car. Tram into Seaton and the wetlands no dogs at the wetlands, but you can see a lot from the tram. Accommodation was lovely, plenty of room for four of us with dogs. Will book again soon

The Old Dairy had everything we needed for a comfortable and relaxing week.

It was a bonus to have the glasshouse and pond area for additional space to unwind as well. A minor point: there might have been a bit of a dog smell in some parts of the cottage for the first couple of days. I could see from the visitors' book that three dogs had been staying there for the previous two weeks. Perhaps only a non-dog person would have noticed, and I realise the cottages are all advertised as being dog-friendly. We did like Tritchayne a lot, though. It's a beautiful and peaceful location.

Second stay in this delightful cottage.

Welcomed from the outset. The scones/cream tea were such a nice touch. Our dog loved the field exercise and the pond and glasshouse made recharging our batteries easy. Thank you Sarah and John.

Lovely friendly owner, great grounds, nice cottage and location.

We loved being able to walk around the gardens and straight from the cottage. This part is NOT about the property. The reason I’ve not given an over all good rating is because of the absolutely terrible experience I had booking it and then again trying to amend it. It’s been an absolute nightmare. We have always used Sykes and actually had our own large holiday home on with you for several years but after this experience I will not be using you again in any capacity. I hope your property owners know how bad things can be at the bookings end and customer help side- and how it can affect the experience.. I would be asking for a refund to offset the extensive trouble I had EVEN DURING THE HOLIDAY but knowing how hard it was to actually try to give you my money, I can’t face the prospect of asking for some back ! Really poor. Stop using computers to try to sort out unusual queries. It’s so frustrating that no operatives can see the previous WhatsApp message and I had to repeat myself every time. Get more humans on the phone lines. Sort yourselves out.

A very nice and well equipped cottage with a welcoming and friendly owner.

The cream tea provided on our arrival was very welcome and thoroughly enjoyed. Only drawback was the narrow road from the cottage through the village of Colyton. We were lucky to have good sunny weather and a peaceful location to stay.

A beautiful cottage in Devon as a wheelchair user I’ve found wheelchair accessible properties aren’t always that well the Old dairy was fabulous for my limited mobility.

We were welcomed onsite by John who couldn’t do enough for us such a lovely welcome after a long journey. We had a fabulous week and saw some beautiful places in Devon . The cottage was really well equipped too with everything needed and more and was very dog friendly too our pups enjoyed their stay as much as us thanks again John hope to be back again soon . Kayley Steven Julie and of course Ruby and Albie the pooches too xx

The cottage was wonderful, secluded and peaceful, and splendidly equipped.

However, within easy distance of the donkey sanctuary and several beaches. We particularly enjoyed the Seaton tramway which departs from the local village of Colyton. We found a much easier route to the cottage from Honiton via Google - I'm afraid the directions in your email were very confusing!

We had a comfortable, peaceful, stay.

The cottage was so well equipped even down to the dog box with spare lead, balls and treats as well as towels. Everything in the cottage worked well and the staff were pleasant and eager to please.

The directions to to the property were totally inadequate.

(please revise) After going round in circles and asking at least three different people for directions we phoned the owner who kindly came to meet us and we followed him. We would never have found it otherwise. The property was comfortable and pleasant walks nearby and lovely garden. Unfortunately weather awful for two days which put a damper on the holiday.

Lovely homely cottage on small well maintained complex .

Warm welcome and delicious cream tea waiting for us ! Never stayed in such dog friendly self catering - enclosed gardens for that night wee trip , big field for a longer wander and the dog box with doggie essentials treats and poo bags !!! Peaceful location and yet close to all the main attractions . Such great communal outdoor spaces and the gorgeous summer house ( we had a picnic in there in the rain !) Tritchayne cottages really are a little piece of heaven in Devon . Thank you John and Sarah .

A perfect stay!

Thank you for making it so comfortable and the amazing scones :)
