Summary: This was our second stay at The Old Piggery and once again we were so grateful to find accommodation that meets the needs of my disabled husband. The cottage offers ample space for his large wheelchair and the essential equipment he requires, which made our stay both comfortable and stress-free. The owners are exceptionally thoughtful and caring. Although they were away on holiday during our visit, they stayed in regular contact to respond to any queries and to ensure everything was going smoothly. We were fortunate to have beautiful weather, which allowed us to enjoy several lovely days out along the coast. The nearby seaside resorts of Westward Ho!, Saunton Sands, Croyde and Woolacombe all offered stunning views. The good weather also meant we could make the most of the garden, which is equipped with comfortable furniture and surrounded by the soothing sights and sounds of the countryside, sheep in the fields and birds in the trees. I wholeheartedly recommend The Old Piggery, especially for anyone with accessibility needs. I’ve struggled to find anything else that compares in terms of both thoughtful design and the welcoming attitude of the owners.

Summary: We were very lucky with the weather and thoroughly enough our week. I am in a wheelchair and we had young baby , as well as a dog. So it was a good test of the old piggery and it passed with flying colours.

Summary: We fell in love with this cottage from watching the beautiful video on YouTube and were not disappointed. We were delighted to find a cottage that had all the accessible features we required for my husband's disabilities. It was our first holiday with the challenges of a wheelchair but we experienced no real difficulties staying in this property. It was warm, comfortable, clean and cosy, tastefully decorated throughout. It was useful having the owners, Sue and Tom, next door, on hand to answer questions and respond to requests. They were always friendly and approachable. We hope to come back in better weather and spend some time in the peaceful garden.

Summary: We booked the Old Piggery specifically for a family holiday for our disabled mum who has MS. Everything worked really well considering my mum has very poor mobility. Hosts were really friendly and very accommodating too. We would definitely return. Many thanks.

Summary: Beautiful well equipped and comfortable cottage adapted discreetly for wheelchair use. A little misleading regarding the washing machine as it is not in the cottage itself but available if required in a communal area attached to the owner’s house. Very helpful owners on site Well located to visit local attractions. We thoroughly enjoyed cycling the Tarka Trail. Thanks for a lovely stay

Summary: We really enjoyed our stay at the old Piggery. The hosts were really helpful, lending us extra chairs for a BBQ and made us feel very welcome. The cottage was spotless and had everything you would need including coal and firelighters for the BBQ. On arrival we were given the nicest cream tea I have ever had. The ground floor bedroom is accessible without steps and has a step free shower in it's ensuite. It is in a beautiful rural location. We would definately recommend the property.

Summary: We had another wonderful weekend away at The Piggery, this was our second visit. The facilities are great just what we need for all the family members, ie a ground floor bedroom with an ensuite wet room with hand rails etc and separate bedrooms and shower room upstairs. With such amazing weather being able to sit outside on the comfy garden chairs was an added bonus. Also the location is great in the countryside, but with Barnstaple quickly and easily accessible with plenty of choice of shops and supermarkets and then also having the beautiful Exmoor on your doorstep as well. We highly recommend this accommodation with the delicious homemade cream tea and milk to welcome you.
