Property and garden were beautiful. Everything we needed for indoors and out. Central location with easy access to shop, pub and dog walking field. Sarah our host was very welcoming and helped with parking and other local amenities. Our dog Albie loved exploring the secure garden. Would definitely recommend a stay here. ...

We have stayed at Little Bessemer three times and have always had a wonderful holiday. The cottage is perfect for couples and has a beautiful private garden. The owners are very kind and welcoming and a homemade cream tea awaits you when you arrive! The cottage has a very well equipped kitchen and comfortable lounge and is always spotlessly clean. It has everything you need and is just a lovely place to be! The village is beautiful and there are lovely views over the countryside from the cottage. There is a well stocked village shop and Combe Martin is only a short drive away, as is Ilfracombe and the lovely beach at Woolacombe. We would highly recommend Little Bessemer!...
