The Old Mill is the ideal choice for a family seaside holiday or a relaxing escape at any time of year. This historic, Grade II listed house is thought to be the oldest in the village dating back to the 17th Century. Steeped in history it retains many of its original features, charm and character. Bucks Mills was the home to Prunella Scales during World War II. The Old Mill was the village guest house at this time and its landlady is thought to have been the inspiration for Sybil Fawlty.
Just a stones throw from the secluded sand and shingle beach, it sits in the tiny cliff top hamlet of Bucks Mills, one of the most beautiful villages in North Devon, a secluded hidden gem with pretty white washed cottages speckled along a wooded valley at the end of a no through road. This delightful, spacious holiday home is one of the last adjacent to the steep clifftop pathway which leads you down to the glorious beach overlooking Lundy Island and the Atlantic Ocean. There are plenty of rock pools to keep young and old entertained or have a go at sea fishing.
There is plenty for everyone with birdwatching, fishing, riding, golf, surfing and sailing close by. The coastal path passes by the cottage and leads you to the famous fishing village of Clovelly and the unspoilt beach at Peppercombe, or if you are feeling energetic, walk all the way to Westward Ho!
A village store and post office is one mile away and nearby Bideford has restaurants and town amenities along with boat trips to Lundy Island, or hire a bike and explore the nearby Tarka Trail. RHS Rosemoor Gardens, Docton Mill and Hartland Quay are well worth a visit along with many pretty fishing villages to explore including nearby Instow and Appledore. For family fun the Big Sheep, The Ultimate Adventure and Milky Way Adventure parks are a must. Beach 200 yards. Shop 1 mile, pub and restaurant 2½ miles.

We had a excellent family hoilday
The beds and bathrooms were lovely

We had a great few days with the family. Ideal for walking the coastal path in both directions and easy access to other places by car. It was well equipped comfortable and clean.
It was a last minute decision to book - but the owner responded really quickly and was very helpful.

We had a great week at The Old Mill.
We had a great week at The Old Mill. The house is really lovely, very old, interesting and full of character. It was very clean when we arrived. The beds were very comfortable and there is plenty of space with 2 very comfortable sitting rooms. The kitchen is exceptionally well equipped with 2 fridges (one large American style) a freezer, dishwasher, washing machine and dryer. There was also everything you could need to prepare food and cook ie excellent knives, more than enough pans and a fabulous range cooker. We had no issues with the wi fi. We managed to park outside the house to unload and always found a space in the lane near to the house. The main car park is not that far away and there was always lots of space in it. A more powerful shower is the only thing that we would have liked but that’s a minor issue and would not deter us from re-booking. The location is wonderful with the beach just a few minutes walk away. It’s a great beach to take kayaks out which we did. We did the walks to Clovelly and Peppercombe which we recommend and went to the beach at Westward Ho. We had a great time and would definitely recommend both the house and location.

Thank you very much for this wonderful stay! It was one of the best cottages and location we have travelled to in Devon. Overall, we scored 8 only due to 2 points raised by some of the team. 1 being the water pressure of the shower. It was quite weak. It is probably due to it being a cottage and so it is understandable but perhaps there should be some consideration for this. The on-suite bathroom door is noisy which is problematic during the night when everyone is sleeping. The heating settings for scheduling was quite difficult to navigate and there was always someone in the house at all times and when we tried to put the heating / hot water on manual it was constantly turned off without notice. Meaning someone in the middle of a shower would experience the water turning cold. Apart from these points, everything else was great! the cottage is quaint but yet spacious. The kitchen is very comfortable for making food as it has all the equipment necessary. The internet is a little weak but this was warned about in advance and, if you travel to stay at this cottage in the first place, then no internet is even better for that ultimate relaxation and detox with nature. The location was one of the best features, waking up with the ocean laid out in front of you and only a 2-minute stroll down for a swim or to shower under the waterfall, was such a freeing experience! definitely recommend, especially for a group travelling together. The handbook provided with the cottage by the host is a really helpful guide to great recommendations for maximising the great opportunities around the area. Thanks again!

We have just come back from a 7 night stay and can honestly say we've had a brilliant time.
We have just come back from a 7 night stay and can honestly say we've had a brilliant time. The cottage was very very clean. Everything you could want for. Kitchen well stocked with crockery, the beds, bed covers / pillows all very clean and comfortable. We all slept very well. There is a space to put kayaks (we had 4 of them) and plenty of other storage for wetsuits and life jackets. TV in the cosy lounge had Netflix which was enjoyed by the children and adults one evening. We fished and kayaked off the local beach, walked to Clovelly (a must to visit) one morning we did a run to Peppercombe beach (hilly but fun) we also explored lots of the local areas, Saunton Sands, Bude, Westward Ho! etc We even did a day tip to Adrenalin Quarry which was the children's favourite day, We did the Zip Line and Aqua Park. The Owner has been fantastic pre warned us that the scaffolding was due to come down the morning after we arrived and a plumber/electrician to fit a shower head and some new bulbs. Sent info via email day before our arrival. We cannot fault our stay, the property has recently had a make over, new carpets and painting has been done in some rooms which has all been done lovely. Parking is a 8 min walk to the car park (you get used to it, it's not so bad) can load for 30 mins outside though. The Cottage is very charming and great that we were able to take our dogs. 10/10 would stay area if going to the area.

Communications with the owner were excellent, especially as there had been ongoing problems with the internet. Bucks Mill is both beautiful and serene whilst being not too far from the larger towns of Bideford and Barnstaple.
