Mazzard Farm Cottages

We had a wonderful stay at Mazzard Farm, Ruud and Jacqueline are fantastic hosts and looked after us very well. The grounds are stunning with lovely spaces for children to play and explore, although the star attraction for our 3-year-old was undoubtedly Rory the (very patient) dog. There is plenty to see and do within reasonable driving distance of the cottages, with the Donkey Sanctuary, Sidmouth beach and Pecorama being just a few of our favourites. We would certainly recommend this as a lovely place for a holiday!

We had a wonderful stay at Mazzards farm. There was loads for the children to explore, from woods, orchards and playground. And an Aladdin's cave of toys, bikes and books to play with. All three generations enjoyed the comfy beds and clean, spacious accommodation. It was a thoroughly enjoyable stay in the beautiful Devon countryside.

Great place. Well run. super friendly. Electric car charger! Amazing gardens...

Situated in the bottom of a wooded valley, Mazzard Farm is a special place, particularly for families. Lots of things for children to do on site and plenty of places nearby to visit. Only 6 miles to the coast at Sidmouth! These spacious, well-appointed cottages exude rustic charm, but have many modern conveniences.

Great place in a lovely setting. The owners are helpful and friendly and they offered us lovely scones and cream and jam on arrival. The cottage was spacious and homely and our toddler loved the garden, the goats, chickens & toys. We enjoyed some fun days at the beach in Sidmouth, Branscombe and Beer, which are just a short drive. Highly recommended!

This was our 3rd stay at the wonderful Mazzard Farm. Paradise for kids, relaxing for adults. Near enough to the town and beaches to be able to get out and about easily, but also feels like you’re miles from anywhere. We definitely recommend for anyone with little ones who love open spaces!

We stayed in Mazzard farm in the last week of August 2019 with our two yound children (4 &6) and grand parents. We had a great time in this quiet location, far from any noisy urban environment. The weather was good so we had BBQ and watch the stars. Lovely garden with great tasty apples, for the pigs too. The children loved it and it was a pleasure to walk around discovering all the secrets of the valley.

Our family stayed in Medlar Cottage for a long weekend in January 2015 with our two year old daughter and could not fault Mazzard Farm. The grounds are perfect for exploring with little ones and the cottages are well stocked with everything you could need, including the necessary cots, monitors, high chairs and toys which toddlers require! Nearby Ottery St. Mary has plenty of lovely foodie shops, perfect for buying local produce to cook and enjoy back in front of the log burner in our cottage. We are certainly planning to return next year and would highly recommend.

A really wonderful stay - very welcoming hosts, beautiful grounds and splendid accommodation. It was our first holiday with a new baby and we could not have been better catered for. We hope to return one day; highly recommended.
