Deer’s Leap was a brilliant place to have my 70th birthday celebration with friends and family. There were 10 adults and 7 children ranging from 4-10 years of age. The children were able to play safely on the tennis court and used the games room under supervision from adults. The main farmhouse was ideal providing areas for the different families to have access to a bathroom each. On arrival, the bedrooms were spotlessly clean and comfortable. Similarly the lounges and dining room were the same. The kitchens and utility room had everything you could have needed and the two dishwashers certainly proved a bonus. Any problems we had were addressed by the on site owners who additionally took on the role of chef for one evening meal so the adult could have a celebratory meal.

Deer’s Leap provided the ideal place for my family to celebrate my birthday. The house was well equipped for a large party with ample seating areas in both dining and sitting rooms. The garden area off the kitchen was prefect for all ages providing a secure garden for the little ones. Heather, James and extended family were the perfect hosts. Nothing was too much trouble. We had a wonderful few days !!

Wonderful host, warm, comfortable house with a well equipped kitchen (with 2 dishwashers and 2 fridges!) Perfect for our party of 13. The weather kept us from exploring outside, but the hot tubs kept warm even in January! Thanks so much for a lovely break!”

Deer’s Leep Retreat proved to be everything I could have wished for. Heather, her family, and fantastic team could not have been more welcoming; from the minute we arrived we felt ‘at home’. The peaceful setting of the cottage coupled with spring water on tap and the purity of the Exmoor country air makes it the perfect location to let go of the pressures of modern day life. The cottage itself is exceptionally well equipped, the sleeping options offer comfort and privacy and there are even 2 blissful hot tubs, a sauna and wood-burners – providing you with the space and tools in order to share quality time with friends, family and loved ones. I wholeheartedly recommend Deer’s Leap to anyone looking to celebrate and share an important occasion.
