This was our second stay at Fowlescombe Farm and it only reinforced our view that it is one of the most special places to stay in the UK.
This time we stayed in the Pond Suite, which was every bit as beautifully designed and comfortable as our previous accommodation, with lovely views across the surrounding countryside. Being one of just three rooms within the Farmhouse, we particularly enjoyed having direct access to the spacious, well-equipped kitchen and the cosy lounge areas...

Really enjoyed our weekend away. The Charterhouse is within walking distance of the beach and the town. Perfect on a sunny day! Beautiful, well looked after grounds with outdoor seating and a swimming pool. Marion and Les are lovely and very helpful, they go out of their way to make you feel welcome. They have a vast knowledge of the area and lots of ideas for days out. Breakfast is great and so much choice, definitely sets you up for a busy day of sightseeing! Their homemade bread, jams and...

Great hosts, parking permit was provided which saved us a lot of money, easy walk to the harbour. The room was huge and cleaned every day. The only let down was the British summer weather!

The whole hotel is only around a year old and everything still seems like it's brand new. The breakfast was superb, the room was really nice and there's excellent on site parking in the two level underground carpark too.
Will definitely be going back - Thanks.

We booked a last minute one night stay. I felt slightly nervous after reading some reviews but there was no need to be. From the moment we booked until leaving the staff couldnt be more helpful. From making sure we got booked into the spa to allowing us to use the spa changing rooms for the outside pool ater checking out. We even had drinks delivered to us whilst in the hot tub. We were on the first floor and had a lovely view over the pool and harbour. We couldn't have been more pleased and...

Stayed for a week start of September, on arrival was greeted by Gary and Julie the owners, who are super friendly, shown to our room. Room was quite small, but very clean, comfortable bed, all we needed. breakfasts is good, whatever combination of a breakfast you want you can have, also cereal and toast are available. Could do with some fruit and maybe brown or whole meal toast options. Ate dinner in the hotel twice, big shout out to the chef Adam, food was great. Deserts were amazing. ...

Very nice spacious apartment
Lovely views and great location
Car park is very small and tight
Above a pub so can be noisy
The pubs kitchen fan is on the balcony which is quite loud so not a very peaceful sit on the balcony
Lots of kitchen essentials and games
Comfy beds!
