This beautiful cottage combines rustic charm with modern comfort, offering the perfect rural retreat. With space for up to six guests, this cosy cottage provides everything you need for a relaxing and memorable stay.
Inside, you'll find a welcoming open plan kitchen and dining-area, fully equipped with all the essentials, making it easy to prepare anything from a quick breakfast to a hearty family dinner. The large dining-table is the perfect place to gather, share stories and plan tomorrow's adventures.
The sitting-room is full of charm, with its exposed stone walls, original wooden beams and large, comfortable sofas inviting you to sink in and relax. There's also a television for cosy movie nights. From the sitting-room, you can access your own private raised garden terrace, furnished with a table, chairs and parasol. It's an ideal spot for sunny breakfasts, lazy lunches or evening drinks while watching the sun set behind the treetops.
Downstairs, a spacious twin bedroom overlooks the courtyard and sits next to the main family bathroom, complete with a full-sized bath and fitted shower. Upstairs, there's a comfortable double bedroom and a charming cabin-style twin room with L-shaped beds that children will love. There's also a convenient WC and wash-basin making family stays even easier.
Guests staying at Puffin Cottage also have access to the shared facilities at Robin Hill Farm. Take a dip in the indoor heated swimming pool, kept at 28 degrees all year round, or head to the games-room where you can enjoy a friendly game of pool, table-tennis or foosball. Outside, you'll find 14 acres of meadows and woodland to explore along signposted trails.
For larger gatherings, all six cottages at Robin Hill Farm, Wren Cottage (6038), Swallow Cottage (6039), Kingfisher Cottage (6040), Heron Cottage (6041) and Gull Cottage (6043) can be booked together, making it the perfect choice for extended families, friends or special celebrations. With a mix of double, twin and bunk bedrooms, private gardens and spacious living areas, each cottage provides both comfort and privacy while giving the whole group access to the farm's fantastic, shared facilities.
North Devon is filled with places to discover; the seaside resort of Westward Ho! offers miles of golden sand, perfect for surfing, kite flying or simply paddling in the shallows.

For a truly special day out, take a trip to Lundy Island, where you might just spot the cottage's namesake, the colourful puffin with its bright orange bill and black and white feathers, along with seals, dolphins and seabirds that make the island their home.
Whether you're exploring the rugged coastline, cycling along the peaceful Tarka Trail or simply enjoying the tranquility of the countryside, Puffin Cottage is the perfect place to relax, reconnect and experience the best of north Devon.
