Kittiwake Cottage,  Moor and Sea. Beautiful space on Exmoor

Bijou, well furnished and comfortable chalet in a great location for North Devon tourism. We are keen walkers and my husband is an amateur artist - the Kittiwake suited us perfectly for a short late summer break. It is unusual in the UK holiday cottage market to find somewhere quite as nicely finished as this. From the original artwork of the walls to the range of blankets, rugs and turkish bath towels; it is all so tasteful, easy to use and wholesome. Made for a joyous and relaxing holiday.

Lovely holiday rental in great location

We spent a week at this beautiful lodge and wished we could have stayed twice as long. The surroundings are magical, and the lodge itself is wonderfully designed—cozy and bright. It's a perfect place to relax, play games, do some remote work, and cook all at once. I highly recommend this place. Additionally, the hosts are amazing; we felt truly welcomed and at home.

A place you can call home

Our family spent a wonderful week at Kittiwake Lodge in June of his year.
The lodge had everything we needed and was beautifully decorated.
The utility room came in very handy and was well equipped.
The grounds were absolutely beautiful. We would certainly recommend a walk up to the fields behind the lodges and walks further afield.
Bridget and her partner were wonderful hosts and easily contactable.
We look forward to returning .

A wonderful stay at Kittiwake Lodge

The lodge is clean and comfortable with everything you need, including good wifi and a beautiful view. It's a great location for exploring the North Devon coast and the hosts are very friendly. We liked their eco-friendly approach too.

Excellent

I recently had the pleasure of staying at Kittiwake for a plein air painting course. I had a wonderful time; I would highly recommend both the accommodation and the course to anyone looking for a relaxing and creative getaway.

The accommodation was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped, with nice views of the surrounding countryside. Bridget and Richard were very welcoming and helpful hosts. They provided lunches each day which were delicious and healthy, with fresh ingredients, and catered for any dietary needs. 

David's teaching style is relaxed and inspiring, he is also an incredible artist. The painting locations were stunning, and I really enjoyed the opportunity to paint en plein air in such beautiful surroundings and with a lovely group of people too.
