Happy Christmas from Stonehayes Farm! We’d like to say we’re winding down for the festive season but that wouldn’t be true because we’ll still be busy with change overs for Christmas and New Year. But we don’t mind at all, we love welcoming guests to our family friendly Devon holiday cottages whatever time of year it is.

Our gorgeous holiday cottages at Stonehayes Farm are perfect for walking breaks in Devon, for when you want to spend the days exploring beautiful countryside, returning to a place that’s warm and cosy, somewhere peaceful where you can spend the evening relaxing before you settle down for a restful night’s sleep, waking up ready to face another day of striding out across the hills and fields in the glorious fresh air.

We’re sat here today looking out of the window and yep, it’s definitely a bit wet out there. Fair to say that the weather has turned!

In line with the government announcement on 22nd February 2021 we can welcome guests to our holiday cottages near the beach in Devon from April 12th**.
