Thank you so much for the unforgettable stay! We had without doubt one of our greatest holidays ever and really enjoyed your cottage and the surroundings. Exmoor is fabulous! We left two of our walking guides so future visitors can enjoy them. July 2024
What a fantastic stay at the Red Linhay! Comfortable accommodation with everything thought out- from the local produce hamper (including Louise’s home baking!) to the picturesque views from such a peaceful location. And the riding!! Louise led every route to match our horses fitness and our capability- taking great care to check in with us at all stages! Great local eateries and interesting local places to visit- we particularly enjoyed Lynton and Porlock Weir. Thank you for a brilliant time- we will be back! July 2024

Exmoor is our favourite destination for holidays.
We stayed a few places over years but Red Linhay at Hollacombe Farm is the place we would love to go back again.
Quiet, peaceful and a lovely view from living & dining area.
During the last stay in May, we enjoyed looking at many wild birds flying back & forward from trees to bird feeders in front of the window. It is easy to see how much care the owner is taking to look after the wild life.
The cottage is surrounded by “living hedge” hosting a variety of wild flowers. During our stay, many swifts were noisily flying around one of the owner’s barns for nesting.
It’s such a special place to spend time, feeling relaxed and rested.
Highly recommended. May 2023
Thank you so much for your hospitality during our stay in the Red Linhay cottage; we had the best time and the whole family really enjoyed themselves! I (Katie) particularly wanted to thank you both for taking me out with Berry (pony), it was amazing to see such beautiful countryside, especially from horseback. The beach was certainly a favourite for me and an experience I will remember for ever! I am hoping to persuade Mum that we will come back and visit soon with 2 horses so she can ride as well!

We had such a wonderful time in Devon and Exmoor. Our host and hostess were so kind to provide provisions upon our arrival. We enjoyed walking on the farm and even got to see some cows and horses. Our kids loved the resident dog and the playground in the backyard. I just loved the view — it is breathtaking. It is well-situated for access to Exmoor, where we were so impressed by every hike we took. It is so beautiful. I only wish we could have stayed longer.

A lovely 5 night stay at The Red Lindhay with the three kids (18 months, 7 and 10) The cottage was clean and well equipped. All the useful bits and bobs for travelling with a toddler (highchair/stairgate/plates/cot) and kids loved the play equipment and WiFi!! Beautiful setting and wonderful in the evening to listen to the stream. Would recommend - thanks Louise 😊 August 2023

A wonderful stay in a beautiful location! The Red Linhay at Hollacombe Farm was perfect for our family break and the welcoming touches were so very much appreciated. We’ll hopefully be staying again soon and will definitely be recommending to family and friends. Thank you Louise!

A stunning location and a perfect cottage for exploring North Devon. We loved it, the dogs loved it and we will be back!

Hi Louise! We had a great stay and it’s very easy to relax in such a lovely place. We will miss marmite and will find it strange to not have her around. Thank you both once again for another lovely stay. Rachael and Stephen

We had a fantastic stay The cottage is lovely, on its own surrounded by beautiful countryside, but not far from places to go Louise is a brilliant host, the place was very clean and with everything you could need. And more! A welcome basket of local treats and some delicious homemade baking! Wholeheartedly recommend a stay here
Thanks for such a lovely stay! The welcome basket was really nice and we loved meeting Marmite! She’s hilarious. All the best Richard and Lucy

We had an amazing time here. Louise was a fabulous hostess and couldn’t have been more helpful; a beautiful and peaceful spot . What was the best was being able to go somewhere like this with fantastic riding with both our own horses and our dogs. Highly recommended! Thoughtful amenities

Finn and I have now enjoyed 3 stays at Hollacombe Farm. The weather has always been on our side meaning we could get out and enjoy the stunning scenery.
Can highly recommend Hollacombe Farm to anyone wishing to bring their horse on holiday with them. Thank you to Louise and Ian for making us so welcome xx

Thank you and Ian for making us feel ever so comfortable during our three weeks at your cottage. There are so many good things to say: your wonderful food basket on arrival, taking our daughter across the farm and letting her play with Sam and Marmite, who are ever so pleasant company and many things more …
We absolutely enjoyed the peace and the beautiful view that come with the cottage, yet we felt that the many attractions that Exmoor and North Devon have to offer are easily accessible from your location. Definitely a place one wants to return to. Robert & Carina, August 2024
Wow! Wow! Wow! We spent the most fabulous Christmas at the Red Linhay. We were given a wonderful welcome by Louise (and Marmite & Sam, the farm dogs). The linhay was lovely and warm with radiators in all the rooms but they had already lit the log burner for us too. The building has been beautifully converted, was lovely and clean throughout and had everything we required to cook and serve our extensive Christmas meals. We felt very comfortable within a couple of hours of our arrival. Nothing seemed too much from requests made prior to our stay to our leaving. They even spent a couple of hours after dark on Christmas Eve sorting out the wifi. The location is awesome too, just on the edge of Exmoor. Great for walks. We were allowed to wander around the farm and were shown into the barns to see the cows and their calves. Really I can’t praise this place enough.We will be returning. Sally, Matt and I had the most memorable Christmas staying in the Red LInhay. You have created a lovely cottage out of the converted barn. Everything we required was available. But I must mention your wonderful welcome basket, table arrangement and the most delicious Yule log. On the second day we had it slightly warmed with some clotted cream. Also your dedication in ensuring we had contact with the outside world by sorting the wifi problem. Thank you again for the most amazing location, we left saying that we’ll have to visit again. Best wishes, Pippa XXX
