Laying in a little coombe between Barnstaple and Ilfracombe in rolling countryside with an abundance of wildlife and wild birds you will find Centery Farm. A restored traditional Victorian farmhouse run by Beverly and Stephen Green who offer farmhouse bed & breakfast accommodation to an 'AA 4 Star' standard in a professional yet relaxed and informal atmosphere plus a one bedroomed self-catering cottage. Centery Farm is ideally located when visiting both North Devon and West Exmoor. Due to the very close proximity of an unfenced lake to the farmhousehouse we do not offer accommodation for minors or accompanying pets therefore it is most suited to couples and single travellers looking for a quieter and relaxed quality venue. Well signed off the B3230 Barnstaple to Ilfracombe road. 'Sat-Nav' systems tend to deliver you to Hillcrest Farm (EX31 4HN) we are just down the hill from Hillcrest and share the same postcode. However most systems also tend to direct you via Blackmore Gate at Aller Cross just outside South Molton when travelling North on the A361 (North Devon link road). May we suggest that you stay on the main A361 to Barnstaple and follow your system from there.
All B&B guest accommodation has been inspected to the AA 4 Star criteria. All rooms are centrally heated and all bathrooms offer full size baths with a telephone mixer tap plus an additional shower over WC and wash basin. Each room offers a complimentary hot drinks tray with fresh milk complimentary bottled water satellite digital TV and radio bedside alarm clock & hairdryer. Please see our 'Access Statement' on our website for full details.
All B&B guest rooms offer cosy pine beds with quality mattresses for a perfect nights sleep after which wake up refreshed and ready for your classic farmhouse breakfast freshly prepared just for you. Although no longer a working farm we are still surrounded by nature and wildlife. Birds flock to our feeders; deer fox badger otter and a stoat have all visited at one time or another and our pond is well populated with fish and wild duck most of the time.
