Selection of stunning self-catered holiday cottages with a heated pool, tennis court and plenty of f
Wheel Farm Cottage's are situated in the stunning landscape of Exmoor National Park, a designated Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and just a few miles from some of North Devon's finest coastline and countryside. Converted from a 17th century watermill and farm barns, the cottages retain the original features. More modern additions include an indoor swimming pool and sauna, a tennis court and a children's play area.
Although the forecast was showing rain each day it was really only 2 days this week and hardly anything to spoil the day. This was great to see, there’s real treasure in Wheel Farm. Amazing to see so many guests this weekend especially with a difficult time for everyone.
Only in North Devon do you get a sunset, a weather forecast with no rain and then heavy rain and hail! So many were caught out but we just made it back!
May be ideal weather for ducks but there’s plenty of sunny spells the forecast never reveals. Are you looking for a place for Easter? We have various cottages still available, all now internal painted and courtyard garden all looking great. Guest will enjoy afternoon tea complimentary with local devon scones from the Combe Martin bakery. Children will have an Easter Egg waiting for them on arrival. Contact the booking office on 01256 833333.
Can’t wait until the next season commences and we have a few new projects to reveal
We have a variety of cottages available for anyone looking over this half term. Can’t offer any beautiful sunshine, but there are plenty of things to do in North Devon even when it’s raining..

High temperatures are predicted in Devon next week of up to 26C
Got all the patios cleaned of weeds the last 3 weeks with a team, that was after hedges lowered. Can’t accept anything overgrown !
Successfully connected new washing machine to the Farmhouse now! Ideal, as we have everything now brand-new within the last year, and that should at least ensure that everything is working to its very best efficiency, and of course, not likely to lead to any complaints. We’ve been investing in appliances over the last year to make sure that over the next two years, every appliance, accept cookers will be brand-new. Laundry units x 7 completed.
Have been getting the site ready for Summer. Treehouse parts ordered but will be closed over summer (the original play areas have been repaired). Sad news with inflation right now as costs to maintain what we have is £69,000 more than last year and so far keeping the rates even lower than last year. Looking forward to meeting you over the next few weeks.
🌿 Attention, Wheel Farm Cottages community! 🌿
We've got some exciting news to share with you today! 🎉 It seems the rumors about our hedges getting a bit too wild and overgrown have reached our ears. Fear not, dear guests and nature enthusiasts, for we have taken swift action!
Introducing our newly employed "Rabbit Mower" 🐰, a highly skilled and herbivorous creature with a keen eye for unruly Himalan balsam and nettles. Our Rabbit Mower has been working tirelessly, hopping from hedge to hedge, making sure everything is perfectly trimmed and picturesque for your enjoyment.

So, whether you're planning a relaxing countryside stroll or a romantic getaway, rest assured that our hedges won't be stealing the limelight. Thanks to our dedicated Rabbit Mower, the balsam and nettles have been shown the exit, leaving behind a landscape that's as breathtaking as your stay with us.

Great day for exploring your first holiday when you are a little pup!
We closed this coming Monday. 
Charlie and I visited the Quince Honey Farm this afternoon so we can ensure we recommend it to visitors. I recall the old site many times as South Molton’s tea shop and the old honey shop were great locations to stop with the family on a very long drive to Cornwall.
The new site has been planned out well with a very large play barn for children also offering a good range of menus for children. There is a lot of education stops with learning about candle making, what plants are good for bees, seeds, insects and a beekeeping demo and making your own candles, and tasting in the factory. Lots of hands on things to keep your children active although I personally think older children (mine being 5) would benefit more, there’s a lack of keeping the younger ones busy with a trail or lifting flap kind of fun that age group will benefit from. Amazing shop when you come in but strange you have to go to one for shop items and another for the entrance to the location. There is a loyalty card for regulars to the farm and you can just do the playbarn or get a meal without paying for the access of the attraction.
Overall recommended great afternoon out, I wouldn’t get there before 2pm as when the talks start.

View of Baggy Point. Cloud not ideal.

We visited Baggy Point this evening. Marwood Gardens earlier and Great Hangman by Combe Martin last night all with my daughter Carina.
Sunset over Wheel Farm Cottages. I tried to ensure the one angle covered how close we are to the see but the sunset towards the north just does not work.
Everyone loves Charlie’s enthusiasm for showing
Guests around and giving them the welcome notes.
Hayloft now offers a sofa bed and will be the base for our guests today on a 7 day stay. Swivel round and benefit from the 360 images.
I have the thanks of one of our regular guests and friend Anduela Ismaili for getting up much earlier than would on her stay in April just a few weeks after we took over. All bedside tables now have these Coasters. We also have them for sale, see me for details.
A visit to Combe Martin Beach, just 8 mins/2mile drive around sunset time each evening always gives a surprise. I just need to time my drone to capture the farm in the foreground.
Availability for this summer for your escape from travel chaos!

Charlie plants our first new trees for the Jubilee Celebration. We are planning with your support 70 trees. Now we have ‘Platinum Hill’ where a number will be planted and the newly named Jubilee Copse plants to replace dying Ash and fallen Pine trees following the Great Storm of 18 February 2022, the day we took over management! #WheelFarmJubilee
