“We had the most amazing time at the Milk shed.”

The cottage was lovely and clean and very comfortable with all the facilities you could need . It was a great base to explore the local area with beaches of Exmouth , Sidmouth and Dawlish all within easy reach off the M5 . The village was only half an hour walk where there was a lovely pub called the Blacksmith Arms that served delicious food . ...

The village was only half an hour walk where there was a lovely pub called the Blacksmith Arms that served delicious food . The best thing about our experience were the hosts Andy and Jayne . They couldn’t do enough for us and really made our stay . I would definitely return and would recommend the cottage to anyone.

“We had the most wonderful week at the Milk Shed.”

We were made to feel very welcome by Jayne & Andy right from the start, lovely little touches like fresh bread, cake and eggs on arrival. The Milk Shed has everything we needed and more! Perfect location for exploring East Devon and the Jurassic Coast. The children loved the games barn and feeding the sheep was a real highlight for them. We couldn't recommend this highly enough, we would love to go back!

“Jane & Andy were excellent hosts and we would love to go back”
Mrs Sheardown June 2019

“An ideal place for a quiet, peaceful holiday.”

The owners were lovely - helpful & friendly. We plan to return in the future
Mr Naylor May 2019

“The owners are wonderful We are carers for a young man with special needs and they let him feed the sheep each morning and night and fill the water troughs up.”

He loved it and so did we.The house had everything we needed.Yes it is off the beaten track and we needed the car but it all added to the charm.The local shopping centre wasn’t far away.And the village shop two mins up the road.It was a long drive as we live in Yorkshire but worth it..

“We had a great week staying at the Milk Shed.”

The house and garden are lovely - we especially enjoyed feeding the lambs. It’s also ideal for dog owners. Jayne and Andy made us really welcome. Would definitely recommend!
Mr Daisy March 2019

“To stay at The Milk Shed is charming.”

The fresh coffee, bread, eggs and slices of cake were a lovely addition to the warm welcome we received from the owners on our arrival. The Milk Shed is ideally situated for exploring the East Devon countryside and the coast. If you are looking for a "get away from it all" relaxing holiday then this is the place; we would not hesitate in recommending this delightful holiday cottage.
Mrs Simpson October 2018

“We had an amazing holiday at the milk shed, the owners are so hospitable.”

We were made tea and coffee on arrival and supplied with fresh home made bread, scones and jam and also freshly laid eggs from the chickens. The milk shed is extremely comfortable and has all the items needed for home from home. The outside space for children is brilliant and keeps them entertained. The sheep and the chickens are an added bonus and we were fortunate to be able to look after them. I absolutely totally recommend a holiday at this magnificent place.

“Loved the milk shed nice & cosy, but quite remote if like facilities, ok for us though ,our sat nab took us the wrong way ,all round houses on all the single track roads to get there, the local community shop is handy & well stocked, Jayne &hubby helpful & friendly.”

Also the sheep said hello every time we came drove in. Would reccomend again. Linda & Brian.

“The cottage was equipped to very high standards, and was very comfortable.”

Very nice owners to deal with.
Mrs Jackson August 2018

“Just returned from the most wonderful stay at The Milk Shed.”

Jayne and Andy made us feel so very welcome from the moment we arrived with a hot drink, home made cake and even ice creams for our children. The accommodation was spotless and very well equipped and in our opinion perfectly located to explore many attractions for a super holiday. We loved it and hope to return soon.
Mr Cameron August 2018

“Lovely cottage and very kind and helpful hosts.”

Drinks and home made cake on arrival, home made bread (which was delicious!) And their own free range eggs too. All just perfect.

About the location

PLYMTREE

Honiton 8 miles; Tiverton 11 miles; Sidmouth 13 miles.

Plymtree is a delightful village in East Devon with plenty to offer it’s visitors. Lying in the valley of the River Culm the village is surrounded by rolling Devon hills, green wooded valleys and scattered farming villages. Plymtree is home to a local pub, The Blacksmith Arms, along with additional village pubs within two miles serving good food. Also of interest is the community shop, run by volunteers and the historic parish church of St John the Baptist. The church itself dates back to the 14th century and of great interest is the 15th century addition, the painted rood screen. In the churchyard gaze at the ancient Yew Tree, thought to be over 1100 years old and the inspiration for the village’s name. Plymtree is only a short drive from the dramatic 20 mile stretch of Jurassic Coast, England’s first natural World Heritage Site. Resorts such as Seaton, Budleigh Salterton and Sidmouth are found along this stretch of coastline, and all have plenty to occupy their visitors. An easy drive from Plymtree is the cathedral city of Exeter with plenty of large shops, a wealth of museums, a theatre and many fabulous restaurants. Plymtree is also close to the rugged and unspoilt expanse of Exmoor National Park as well as the tranquil and beautiful Blackdown Hills (an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty).
