We spent 2 nights at Lower Yelland Farm in April and our stay was fantastic! The hosts, Peter and Jane, welcomed us warmly and were very friendly and helpful. Our large room with 4 poster bed was really clean and warm and a steaming hot bath in the en-suite was the perfect way to warm up after a Spring swim... More

What could be more welcome than a bath and plenty of hot water on a cold May Day ! Great b & b . Nice touches included homemade bread and several different sorts of home made jam and marmalade . Also fudge in the bedroom ! Lovely ! Thanks.

This was a last minute booking as we decided to stay in Devon another night en route home and we were pleasantly surprised by the very warm welcome we received by the gentleman owner who, I am guessing, was Peter... We were shown 2 rooms and chose the one with the four poster...the room was lovely, warm and comfy with... More

We 'thoroughly' enjoyed our long weekend break at Lower Yelland Farm; Peter & Jane made the two of us feel very welcome. The room was perfect, really clean & tidy with 'nice' touches (Tea/Coffee, Biscuits etc), the bed was very comfortable, makes for a good nights sleep after a days walking. Breakfast; what can I say, a good choice of... More

Referring to a stay in November for nearby birthday celebrations. The B&B sits between the scenic Tarka trail and old road between pretty coastal village of Instow and Fremington .. as other reviews confirm, welcome is warm and inviting, rooms extremely comfortable, with tasty home-cooked breakfasts to set you up for the day. Peter always to hand with helpful advice... More
