"well hidden jewel"
A week holiday with 2 children 7 and 9 years old. We wanted peace, quiet and nature and we found it here. The owners, Brian and Leone, were very, very friendly. We got the option to change cottages because we'd booked one that didn't fit very well (I'm 6'7"tall and the cottage is low in places). Cottage is well equiped and nicely furnished. Property isn't big but the kids loved the games room and the animals. Surroundings are very green and most times all you hear is the birds. Great place to re Read less
Likes:
Nicely equipped cottages in a beautiful location. Very friendly and hospitable owners.
Dislikes:
It's strong point, being in the middle of exmoor, is sometimes it's weakpoint. Shops and activities are quite a drive away

Leone & Brian Martin would like to welcome you to Riscombe Farm self catering holiday cottages, high quality accommodation in the heart of Exmoor National Park, near the border of Somerset and Devon in the West Country of England. We are 15 miles from Minehead. Our beautiful area has recently received a lot of coverage on BBC TV by wildlife enthusiast Johnny Kingdom. The farm is over 300 years old, and is in a peaceful, relaxing location beside the River Exe, near the beautiful village of Exford. Stroll along our riverside fields and through the woodland, and relax in one of our beautiful cottages after a day out enjoying Exmoor and the nearby majestic coast.
The holiday cottages provide very comfortable self catering holiday accommodation with character to return to after your exploration of the nearby spectacular coast, open moorland, wooded valleys, old villages, castles and lots more! We have a games room, laundry plus drying room and secure cycle storage room. Whilst no longer a working farm, we do have ponies, lambs, chickens, ducks, goat, guinea pigs, etc. We also have stabling at Riscombe Farm, so you can bring your horse with you for DIY livery. Dogs and other pets are welcome.
Whilst staying in our self catering holiday cottages, you will be in the centre of Exmoor National Park, located in the northern part of Devon & West Somerset and covering an area of 267 sq. miles (692 sq. km) extending from the Brendon Hills in the east to Combe Martin in the west. Exmoor offers peaceful, open spaces, spectacular coast, clean air, glorious scenery and a friendly welcome. It has one of the finest stretches of unspoilt countryside in England.
Environmental Statement
Riscombe Farm encourages all visitors to recycle as much as possible. We provide a separate bin for recyclable matter. All cottages have low energy lightbulbs and double glazing. The cottages are cleaned using Enjo (chemical free) cleaning products.
