Maddox Down Farm is situated in a quiet hamlet with stunning views over the Countryside - quiet and completely rural. It has been in the Lerwill Family since the 1500's, and is a working farm, only 2 miles from the edge of Exmoor National Park, and 3 miles from the sea. From the top of the farm, on a clear day, you can also see Wales, 25 miles away. The farm lane is a cycleway, route no 56, and there is also a Public footpath running through the farm, which takes you to Combe Martin, passing a standing stone of local interest. Going the other way you pass the ancient Church at East Down before reaching our local hostelry "The Pyne Arms" which is open all day for food and liquid refreshment.

The traditional stone barns have been converted to five comfortable cottages in keeping with the area, with one to three bedrooms. Each cottage is well equipped, with TV, video and DVD, and kitchens with cooker, washing machine, microwave and fridge, as well as dishwashers in the larger cottages. The Dairy has one double bedroom to sleep 2, while The Granary, The Roundhouse and The Stable have two bedrooms; the second bedroom in The Stable has twin beds plus a full size bunk bed, so can accommodate up to 6. The largest cottage, The Barn, has three bedrooms, also to sleep 6.

On site there is a games room, a converted cart linhay, with pool table, table tennis, table football, darts, play area for smaller children and an area with books, board games, videos and DVD, together with an area outside with swing, ride on toys and swing ball. In the meadow below the cottages there is a catch and release fishing lake, stocked with Trout and Carp which can be used by our guests free of charge. Dogs are welcome in some cottages. Short Breaks welcome subject to availability.
