"Adequate facilities but in need of modernising and overpriced"
We chose this accommodation as our son was using a trials bike venue 5 miles away and accommodation at this place was booked. We were limited to this exact week and booked in advance and payed the full amount. It was expensive for the standard on offer. We found most things dated and tired and in need of updating, especially bathrooms, soft furnishings, bedding and carpets. We used it as a base for trials biking and visiting local towns such as Clovelly, Bude, Bideford and Padstow. Read less
Likes:
Quiet and peaceful.
Dislikes:
Mostly the bathrooms and bedding.
Response from Mettaford Holiday Cottages:
3 adults + 2 lads @ £21.50 per person per night, peak Summer week, seems very reasonable value, and is probably the lowest for a cottage offering all our additional facilities in this area.
We don't grade our accommodation: Visit Britain do, and their Inspector is happy with the standard as assessed in February 2011.
Our programme of up grading our accommodation continues on a year by year basis.

We appreciate guests who use all resources carefully. Local authority recycling requirements apply, excellent re-cycling facilities in all local supermarkets. Leave your car at Mettaford: regular local bus services to Bude, Bideford and Barnstaple. Light bulbs replaced with energy efficient where possible. Some solar heating for swimming pool.Due to our rural location we have low broadband speeds: we offer WiFi as a complementary service, but our business is our priority use. Thanks.
