About Knowle Farm

Knowle Farm is idyllically set in 44 acres of beautiful countryside with its very own woodland and riverside walks where you can truly relax and unwind.

We have six cottages which sleep from 2-8 people and these can be combined in different combinations for groups of up to 16.

Our purpose built indoor toddler soft play area is hugely popular with the little ones along with our pigs, peacocks, a donkey and Dartmoor Pony, rabbits and many other animals - open your cottage door and the chickens and ducks will be waiting to be fed.

Other fantastic facilities include an indoor heated pool, table tennis table, outdoor play area, pool table and tennis court. Our walk-in rabbit area with surrounding toddler 'Race Track' is incredibly popular.

Local attractions include steam trains, boat trips and an absolute multitude of fun things to do with the children. Fantastic sandy beaches are just 30 minutes away and the majestic Dartmoor National Park is right on our doorstep.

Our six individual cottages, which have each received the VisitEngland Gold Award for exceptional quality of accommodation, overlook lovely views and all include: Wood-burning stoves; Freesat T.V (CBeebies etc.); free Wi-Fi and just about everything you could hope for, including cots and high chairs on request.
