Stickwick Manor & Cottages - Newton Abbot

My sister won this wonderful weekend away at the beginning of November at the Devon County Show. We spent the weekend in the Farmhouse which was massive and had everything that you could ever think off. The kid's loved the games barn and feeding all the animals each morning. The puppy loved the open spaces and running in the fields. Alison and her family were very welcoming and made us feel right a home. We were very sad to leave..

I just spent 5 days here on a sewing retreat. This being my third time. Which was excellent.
The accommodation was super. It has everything you could possibly need or want. It quiet, clean, cosy and warm. The owners have done everything to make your stay memorable. Children are made very welcome.

This was a second time at Stickwick and loved it just as much as the first. As a young family the accommodation was perfect for us and the provision of so many of the things that kids need made life easy.

The farm itself is set in beautiful countryside and offers lots to entertain children on site and there are loads of great things to do within a short drive.

Above all, the welcome we received from Alison, Linda & Richard really made our holiday, we look forward to seeing you next time!

We had another wonderful week back at magical Stickwick to celebrate my 70th birthday. Three generations (18 of us) and Stickwick is perfect for everyone. The houses are warm and welcoming, spacious and well-furnished, with modern bathrooms. Everything you could possibly want is provided and the hosts are generous and on hand if needed.

Feeding the animals and birds with Alison and Richard was the start to each day, enjoyed by children and adults. We used the games barn, the garden, the Pizza oven and the Toasting Shack. There’s a Larder Room on site with local produce and other essentials. We had a supermarket delivery on arrival day. We all ate several meals together around the amazing dining table in the Manor House.

The local pub is a 15 minute walk away and it’s a short drive to Dartmoor National Park. There is lots of information about what to do in the area in each accommodation.

Thank you Alison, Richard and Linda .. we will be back

We had a lovely peaceful time at Stickwick, with our three generational group occupying all of the Manor, farm house and cottage. The property is very clean, beautifully furnished and decorated, and has everything you could need. The hosts are the owners and also run the farm, and are thoughtful and welcoming while also unobtrusive. Alison every morning took the children (and any adults who wanted to come along) around all the animals for feeding, grooming and petting, which was an unmissable highlight of every day! Also lots to see and do in the vicinity, countryside, Dartmoor and the coast. We loved it!

We have just returned from our 13th visit to Stickwick Manor for New Year - and it was as lovely as ever. Perfect location, near to the amenities of Bovey Tracey yet in a beautiful rural setting. The house has character, is comfortable, with modern bathrooms and is very well supplied with kitchen equipment. The hosts are lovely and very helpful! We'll be back!

My partner and I recently celebrated our civil partnership at Stickwick Manor - we booked all 3 houses for a week, which enabled us to invite lots of family for a lovely week away together.

Everyone was delighted by the accommodation and location. The gardens are a great place to spend time in with games barn and outdoor shack for fireside fun. The views from the front bedrooms are stunning, the farm is very accessible so feeding the animals with Alison and her farmer-dad Richard was great fun. Everything we needed was there, and the houses together suited large numbers and worked really well.

Alison was so helpful with the planning of our special week, and was faultless in her approach; so friendly yet professional, and a source of good local knowledge and advice. This is a place you will want to go back to again and again! Thank you so much Alison and family.

We spent a weekend at Stickwick cottage in June 2023 - it is a lovely, well presented home, plenty of space for a family of 3. The cottage was very clean and had all the amenities expected. The pdf guidebook was very useful to have in advance.
We didn’t book a supermarket shop to be delivered and would advise doing this as it saves time and money.
The farm and outdoor space is brilliant; our son loved visiting the animals each morning and we enjoyed speaking to Alison, Liam and Richard.
Highly recommend and we will hopefully return one day!
