The Experience

A triumph of style and design. Inspiring duo Carl and Peet have transformed an old livestock building into a sleek space with interesting stuff – much made by them – at every turn: carved wooden stools and seating, quirky light shades, an oak and perspex chandelier, striking fabrics and wall hangings. The attention to detail is impressive. 

They live in the main farmhouse (pop in on Thursdays for tea, cake and a peek at their wares), and there are other buildings dotted around but the one-storey Piggery is an oasis of calm.

Take a seat in the private garden after a walk by the Avon and enjoy some home-produced apple juice overlooking the orchard. Whip up supper in the attractive kitchen, throwing open the bi-folds if it’s sunny, or firing up the wood-burner on nippy nights.

Reviews

This quirky converted piggery, full of art and character, is the perfect place to unwind and get away from it all. Or explore the massive amount that the area has to offer- from beaches to yoga classes and plenty of walks. Eat well (Carl and Peet have a massive amount of recommendations) and then don't forget to explore the farm itself- a plethora of wildlife and biodiversity, along with a load of art to admire, and perhaps purchase.

What a lovely place to stay. Peet is fantastic with her communications and the recommendations for our dinners were excellent. The property is very well kitted out and a great place to relax. Would highly recommend.


Rhea, Bristol

Had a super relaxing, fun girls weekend at this wonderful place! First of all, we loved the homemade decor it looked very artsy/modern. We thought it was bigger than what the photos looked like which was a great surprise! The place felt very clean and tidy. We liked the cd player with a range of blues/jazz cd's - it matched the vibe :) The fireplace was so cosy and the kitchen was well equipped. The homemade cider was sooo good we bought two bottles to bring home! there is also sheep in view from the garden too. I honestly have O negatives! Thanks a lot guys!


Fiona, England

Complete rest, relaxation and warmth from the wintry weather. On top of that there's the quirky and welcoming interior, which is both inspiring and homely. The view is wonderful and days of watching the beauty of nature unfolding in front of us were spent in the window seat. The orchard is full of so much flora and fauna, the more you sit and look, the more you see and you will never tire of watching it all. But a walk around the are from the Piggery is highly recommended, as are the many wonderful beaches and towns. Rest or adventure - it's all on offer! Don't hesitate to book!


Jem, Hereford

A stunning retreat, lovingly renovated. We adored it! The furnishings, archectectural detailing, furniture, sculpture and wall hangings are beautiful, all with exceptional attention to detail. Altogether an extraordinary and peaceful holiday let, nestled in quiet Devonshire countryside. Very welcoming hosts. Strongly recommended!


Location

The neighbourhood

The Piggery is right in the centre of the South Hams and just a 15-minute walk from Loddiswell village where you’ll find a Spar shop, cafes, a pub, post office and garden centre. Kingsbridge, a larger town, is 3.5 miles away and has a wide range of shops, supermarkets and eateries. The dramatic scenery of Dartmoor is a 25-minute drive, as are the golden sands and independent shops of bustling, boaty Salcombe.

Local points of interest from Peet Hahn

  • Well situated a short walk away from Loddiswell, and right in the centre of the South Hams, The Piggery offers easy access to the stunning coastline with its famous South West Coast Path, beautiful and secluded beaches or magnificent Dartmoor 15mins drive.
  • No need to drive.. walk across the farm down the magical and ancient Silveridge Lane to the peaceful River Avon. You can choose to stay on our side of the river and climb back up to us via the neighbouring Reeds Farm. A real pleasure throughout the year.
  • Across the Avon and to the right eventually takes you to Avon Mill Garden Centre with its cafe and deli. Indulge yourself in one of the best cream teas and try to walk back up the steep climb to the footpath back to The Piggery
  • We are in a perfect spot to drive to any of the wonderful beaches, coves and rugged coastline. Or within 15 mins, the magnificent expanse of Dartmoor is yours to explore. Look to the sky and choose - we can advise on some of the best spots - just ask!
  • Our Orchard is our pride and joy. All of October is taken up with harvesting, crushing, juicing and cider making .. We welcome extra hands however tiny and often end up lunching with the team in the Farmhouse kitchen.. Apple juice, cider and chutneys here.
  • The Farmhouse is open to Piggery guests at mutually agreeable times or between 2pm and 6pm on Thursdays when cakes are on offer... we are both happy to answer questions about our work and the farm and can give a guided tour - you can try on a hat or two..
