Nine stunning cottages set in 30 acres of private grounds
Whatever the season, you'll find a warm welcome awaits you at family-run Newhouse Farm Cottages, a rural retreat of 9 cottages set in 30 acres of courtyard gardens, organic fields and woodland in the heart of Devon. The Grade II listed stone barns have been converted to a high standard without losing the character of the buildings, which are full of original features such as stone walls, exposed wooden beams and roof trusses.
Our award-winning cottages are 5* rated by our guest reviews on Trip Advisor as well as being commended in the Visit Devon Tourism Awards. We’re an accredited Dark Sky Friendly Business with Exmoor National Park and thousands of stars, constellations, planets and the Milky Way are clearly visible in the skies above us.
Whether you're looking for a romantic break, a memory-making family holiday or a friends and family get-together, Newhouse Farm Cottages is the perfect venue. We can sleep up to 47 guests at any one time, have a wheelchair accessible barn (The Linhay) and we're dog friendly too. For large groups our function room, The Hayloft, is available for dining, meeting and partying, which means that everyone can come together when they want and return to the privacy of their own cottage for rest and relaxation when needed!
If you're looking for a venue for your corporate team-building event, a sports club tour, or a yoga or holistic retreat please do get in touch and we'll do our very best to accommodate your requirements. Please take a look at our site plan to get an idea of the layout here and floor plans can be seen on the individual cottage pages.
Debbie, Stuart, Keith and Doreen look forward to welcoming you to Newhouse Farm Cottages at any time of the year for a holiday or short break.
Trip Advisor Review - November 2022
“This was our first trip to Newhouse Farm cottages and we hired out the entire site for the weekend - it is perfect, the cottages are all lovely, the grounds, pool, function room and the games room are all excellent and enabled us to have an amazing weekend. Debbie, Stuart and family are super helpful and couldn’t do enough for us to ensure we had everything that we needed. I am already planning next years trip and cannot wait to return."
Trip Advisor Review - August 2022
"The standard of accommodation was of the highest order and the recreational activities were varied and of a very high standard. The older children were never bored and all of us had a thoroughly enjoyable week. But what really makes Newhouse Farm Cottages special is the presence of its owners, Debbie & Stuart, and their team. Always on hand when needed but in a very unobtrusive way - they have the balance absolutely right! They are helped, of course, by being in a delightful part of Devon, and whilst secluded there are many good places to eat and drink near at hand. Thank you everyone at Newhouse Farm for making our week so memorable in all the right ways."
An idyllic setting in the heart of rural Devon
Situated in the heart of Devon, just outside the village of Witheridge, Newhouse Farm Cottages is a rural retreat offering a great base from which to explore the whole of the county.
Set amidst unspoilt countryside Newhouse Farm Cottages offers a sense of incomparable peace and unrivalled tranquillity from the moment you arrive. Footpaths wind steeply down to the lake and tributary of the Little Dart River, offering quiet corners and picnic spots. As the land isn't actively farmed and is free from pesticides and fertilisers, we have an abundance of wildlife – including resident barn owls, badgers, hares and deer.
