Thank you so much for the unforgettable stay!  We had without doubt one of our greatest holidays ever and really enjoyed your cottage and the surroundings.  Exmoor is fabulous!  We left two of our walking guides so future visitors can enjoy them.                         July 2024

Team Griffiths!

What a fantastic stay at the Red Linhay! Comfortable accommodation with everything thought out- from the local produce hamper
(including Louise’s home baking!) to the picturesque views from such a peaceful location. And the riding!! Louise led every route to match our horses fitness and our capability- taking great care to check in with us at all stages!
Great local eateries and interesting local places to visit- we particularly enjoyed Lynton and Porlock Weir.
Thank you for a brilliant time- we will be back 🥰

We had a wonderful stay at Hollacombe Farm. The cottage is very comfortable, the view of the valley is a treat and there are lots to explore and do in the surrounding area. Louise’s communication was impeccable.         May 2024

Thank you so much for your hospitality during our stay in the Red Linhay cottage; we had the best time and the whole family really enjoyed themselves!  I (Katie) particularly wanted to thank you both for taking me out with Berry (pony), it was amazing to see such beautiful countryside, especially from horseback.  The beach was certainly a favourite for me and an experience I will remember for ever!  I am hoping to persuade Mum that we will come back and visit soon with 2 horses so she can ride aswell!                                                                        August 2023

A lovely 5 night stay at The Red Lindhay with the three kids (18 months, 7 and 10) The cottage was clean and well equipped. All the useful bits and bobs for travelling with a toddler (highchair/stairgate/plates/cot) and kids loved the play equipment and WiFi!! Beautiful setting and wonderful in the evening to listen to the stream. Would recommend – thanks Louise 😊                     August 2023

Minako Sato – Review of Red Linhay

Exmoor is our favourite destination for holidays.
We stayed a few places over years but Red Linhay at Hollacombe Farm is the place we would love to go back again.
Quiet, peaceful and a lovely view from living & dining area.
During the last stay in May, we enjoyed looking at many wild birds flying back & forward from trees to bird feeders in front of the window.  It is easy to see how much care the owner is taking to look after the wild life.
The cottage is surrounded by “living hedge” hosting a variety of wild flowers. During our stay, many swifts were noisily flying around one of the owner’s barns for nesting.
It’s such a special place to spend time, feeling relaxed and rested.
Highly recommended.                                                May 2023

Amanda Amanda We had such a wonderful time in Devon and Exmoor. Our host and hostess were so kind to provide provisions upon our arrival. We enjoyed walking on the farm and even got to see some cows and horses. Our kids loved the resident dog and the playground in the backyard. I just loved the view — it is breathtaking. It is well-situated for access to Exmoor, where we were so impressed by every hike we took. It is so beautiful. I only wish we could have stayed longer.

Hi Louise! We had a great stay and it’s very easy to relax in such a lovely place. We will miss marmite and will find it strange to not have her around. Thank you both once again for another lovely stay. Rachael and Stephen

Frances Ratcliffe  recommends The Red Linhay at Hollacombe Farm.

We had an amazing time here. Louise was a fabulous hostess and couldn’t have been more helpful; a beautiful and peaceful spot . What was the best was being able to go somewhere like this with fantastic riding with both our own horses and our dogs. Highly recommended! Thoughtful amenities

Finn and I have now enjoyed 3 stays at Hollacombe Farm. The weather has always been on our side meaning we could get out and enjoy the stunning scenery.

Can highly recommend Hollacombe Farm to anyone wishing to bring their horse on holiday with them. Thank you to Louise and Ian for making us so welcome xx
