The West Country / Devon region

With a very mild climate all year round North Devon is a wonderful location at any time of year

The Barnstaple area

Barnstaple is the commercial centre of the region, combining sophisticated shopping with the bustling atmosphere of markets and speciality shops. The modern Green Lanes Shopping Centre compliments the traditional Pannier and Craft Markets held since 1855 in the Pannier Market Hall.

This attractive market town is the oldest and largest town in North Devon, nestling in the Taw valley on the other side of the estuary which the Saxons first settled in Barnstaple (Barum) over 1000 years ago.

The Long Bridge, crossing the tidal River Taw was thought to have been built in the 12th and 13th centuries and in Litchdon Street are located the Penrose Almshouses built in the early 17th century.

“Great holiday” We went combrew farm for short getaway just for three nights . We stayed roundhouse one of combrew farm's fine cottage.. What we really wanted the freedom & quality time to spend with the extended family. Combrew farm got a fantastic swimming pool with spa end which was all the family members liked. Owners really friendly & given good customer service. We will recommend this place as a very good holiday location. Once again thanks John & sue for let us stay one extra night which wasn't planned. Thanks

“Spread Out and Relax, The Roundhouse Gives You the Room” We had decided to take the family away for the New Year. With 2 grandparents 50+, 3 daughters, 2 partners, all in their 20's and 2 grandchildren, 5 and 2, we needed a reasonable amount of living... more

“The only holiday we've gone back to twice!” We've stayed at two of the cottages here, and both have been very enjoyable. Warm, relaxing, private, and the owners couldn't be more helpful. Lovely playground, boiling hot indoor pool, brilliant. Great to have wifi this time as well. Highly recommended.

“Wonderful place - want to live there permanently!!!” This place is marvellous - all mod cons and more and all to a very high quality. The pool was like a very warm bath (all though I am told it felt cooler when coming out of the sauna (£2 per session)). It truly has every thing you would want for a holiday (it even stayed dry for us). The beds were comfortable and the Roundhouse is so spacious that our party of seven adults, a toddler and a baby never felt cramped once. I should very much like to spend another holiday there and hope that I have the opportunity. Finally, the price for when we stayed (third week in September) was extremely reasonable for the facilities available.

“Fantastic accommodation and service - nothing too much trouble.” This being our third stay at Combrew Farm, booking three properties each time, I can only say we have booked again for next year! All the family love it, with grandchildren ranging from 7 to 22 years. This year the addition of the bikes has been an added bonus as the majority of the family went off for early morning rides along the Tarka Trail and came back glowing. The accommodation is great and the recent updates excedllent. There is every facility a holidaymaker could require, whatever the weather. The Tucker family will provide anything required, on request - and I'm sure would even arrange the weather if it was within their power.

“Best in the South West” Our two daughters, their husbands and our 5 grandchildren were with us on this holiday and despite mixed weather we enjoyed all that the Roundhouse, the swimming pool, games facilities and play area had to offer. Another plus is that the beaches, cycle trails, shops and parks are all close by . Sue Tucker could not have been more helpful & accommodating. No one wanted to leave at the end of the week!

“Wonderful facilities and friendly people equals good holiday” Very impressed with all the facilities at Combrew Farm, house well stocked with everything you need, lots of plates, cutlery and kitchen utensils. Plenty to keep you occupied, tennis badminton, table tennis, trampolines etc and the swimming pool was very relaxing but you could be energetic against the jets. We were a mixed age group, 4 in their early twenties, 3 oldies and a middle aged one, we all enjoyed what was on offer particularly feeding the animals, they eat any leftovers. Sue and John the owners are very friendly and helpful with plenty advice about good places to eat, my favourite was the cafe at Framlington Quay with excellent scones and cream.

“The Roundhouse is fabulous!!!” We have been to Combrew several times with our family including our married son and daughter plus three grandchildren. It was always a wish to stay in the Roundhouse, but because we had taken our dog in previous years we were unable to do so. This year she could not come with us, so Roundhouse it was. It is absolutely fabulous. John and Sue have made a superb job of enlarging the kitchen and making a most spacious dining room. The rest of the facilities are of the highest standard, and getting better we hear. As usual the grandchildren love the pool, the play areas and the trampolines; we love the games room!. There is so much to do both here and in North Devon generally that we would dearly love to come back again.

“What a holiday!” This is what a real holiday likes. We had everything we needed. Clean, well-equipped house in a lovely environment. We are so grateful for every minute. There was always something to do for all the members of the family. We will definitely come back next year!!!

“Fantastic cottage and excellent facilities” This is the 4th time we have been to Combrew Farm and the 2nd time in The Roundhouse. The cottage is spacious and easily accommodated our party of 7 adults. The Roundhouse is always very clean and warm and the small welcome pack is always appreciated on arrival. The kitchen has been extended recently to include a dining area and the dining table is huge. There is plenty of room for buffet style meals with all the food on the table and all the family sat around it. There are plenty of facilities at Combrew Farm to fill your day regardless of what the English weather decides to do. The owners are very friendly and always happy to help make your stay a good one.

“A superb property situated on a site with lots to do” Our second time in the Roundhouse but sixth time at Combrew Farm did not disappoint. The new kitchen diner extension is fantastic and lifts the whole house. Welcoming hosts who can never do enough for you, every year, John and Sue update or refresh the properties to make each stay different to the one before whilst retaining the charm of the original properties. On site, you can play tennis, go on the trampolines, hire a very reasonably priced bike for the nearby Tarka Trail, or feed the animals. If the weather turns, you could play badminton, table tennis, pool or darts. If that doesn't appeal, there's always the world's warmest indoor pool!

“Outstanding accommadation, facilities, location & hosts.” The Roundhouse was fantastic, although we liked what we saw on the website and in the brochure it far exceeded our expectations and the minute we opened the door there was a wow factor. It is equipped to a very high standard. Spotlessly clean, very comfortable with all the home comforts you would ever need. Great location in a very peaceful country environment, within easy reach of all local amenities. Leisure activities were great for all the family especially the pool & gym which the kids thought were 1st class. John & Sue were very welcoming and friendly and nothing seemed too much trouble, helped us by recommending places to eat and visit in the local area. We will definitely return to Combrew, the only problem we had was that we did not want to go home.

“Wonderful stay at the roundhouse” What a lovely place. It was very tidy, the owners were very helpful and the facilities were great. We would defintely all come again. Perfect for a relaxing holiday

“Good Memories” I booked The Roundhouse for a week for a celebration with friends (also booking Courtyard Cottage). My over-riding comments are that the house was ideally suited, spacious, well equipped and very clean on arrival. Also had good showers (I've stayed in too many hotels over the years with useless showers !) The kids loved the play area, particularly the trampolines and the goats, chickens & rabbits also helped to keep them amused. Whilst there is a public footpath running along the side of the property, I didn't see anybody using it all week and from the outset, I had a perception of privacy, peace and security. The house also provided a good base for visiting North Devon and I can recommend eating at The Instow Arms, Han Court Chinese Restaurant at Fremington (easy walking distance) and The Muddiford Inn. Thank you Sue and John for providing a great holiday location.

“Fantastic stay - yet again!” Had a brilliant time at Combrew Farms, this time for the 10th year running. Gorgeous setting and the facilities are wonderful, especially the pool on those sad cold summer days. The addition of Bike rental was fabulous as we cycled to our favourite spots across the famous Tarka trail. Wonderful! Electric hand whisk would be a much needed extra!
