This property is an ideal base for anyone looking for a rural retreat with modern conveniences, if you are looking for a ‘get-away’ and want to explore Exmoor you will not be disappointed! As the name suggests, Linhay Cottage is situated next to a working farm. A linhay (pronounced linny) is a traditional farm building; the open front and regularly spaced pillars are typical of this type of building. The cottage was once the farm’s grooms quarters and overlooks the stable yard. There is a garden area to the rear of the property, which is fenced but not enclosed. The owners are still working on improving the outside areas of the cottage.
The driveway is resurfaced approximately every 5 years but due to the natural water springs and farm equipment potholes quickly reappear, so please drive carefully.
Please note, as with many rural properties the water at Linhay Cottage comes from a private reservoir, it is treated for consumption before being supplied to the cottage. The cottage has its own septic tank, so only human waste and toilet paper should be flushed away.
Dogs are welcome providing they are kept off the sofas and out of the bedrooms, they must not be left in the property on their own at any time. A supplementary fee of £15 will be added to your invoice per dog (strict maximum of 2 dogs).
Linhay Cottage is strictly non-smoking.
The property will be ready from 4 pm on the day of your arrival. Please depart by 10 am on the last day of your stay. Please leave the property clean and tidy so that we can guarantee it will be ready on time for our next guests.
