Polly the Lorry

Brilliant off the grid location, but not far from South Molton centre if you want to hunt down some cheese, bread, wine and a wonderful, quaint farmers market. Location - perfect, with sheep, horses, tractors, "a swamp" as my son called it, but actually a moss filled pond. Lots of beautiful nature to unwind and reset in. And lots of different seating to take in the breath-taking views of it all. Outdoor bath - smashing addition! A woman's touch. Very, very nice with all the necessaries. Both romantic and just downright "au-natural." Very well done on this. Fire pit - perfect, with unlimited logs and kindling and fire lighters, all to be able to enjoy bbqs, and smores with the family. Hosts - what a wonderful family. To be greeted hospitality by Nicky and children and dog, Mabel. But also to be called prior to our trip was ultimately the best customer experience. If you want family owned, authentic kindness and nature. THIS. IS. THE. PLACE. We came here as an escape from London city life but also to celebrate my son's 11th birthday. They immediately took this on board, put up a Happy Birthday, banner and left him a cone of candies personalised to him. Touched by details. Anemities, were all above board. Plan to revist. Well done to our gracious hosts! ...

Our hosts were so kind and helpful and our daughter really enjoyed playing with their kids and the animals on the farm. It was a unique and unforgettable experience.

Polly exceeded our expectations as first class "glamping" accomodation. It was the perfect "off-grid" detox in a beautiful location, with nothing for miles other than the nearby farm animals which children will adore. The accomodation was very well equipped and the owners had certainly thought of every little detail. Comfortable, clean and perfect for a family of 3 or 4. We stayed across a particulary hot spell (35degC!) for the UK, but the accomodation was comfortable to sleep at night and the small private wood with hammock, was a lovely cool spot to relax. For food, the "lorry" is well equipped to cater, but The Bell - in Chittlehampton, which is a very pleasant walk across a few fields, serves great food. Thanks to Nicki and family for helping where needed and their young son for transporting our luggage on his "Petrol Pony" :). Thanks again for a great escape!...

Polly the Lorry - perfect...highly recommend it! Very nice people, great setting, great condition.

Our short break in Polly exceeded all our expectations. A totally, get away from it all holiday in a beautiful, secluded location. Polly was very well equipped, comfortable and clean. The private wood offered welcoming shade on a very hot weekend especially after walking to the local pub - The Bell - in Chittlehampton where we enjoyed a delicious roast. Nicki and Arron, Polly's owners, were lovely and helpful. Thank you for such a relaxing break!...
