We had a wonderful weekend at Rydon Farm. Sally gave us a very warm welcome and we are looking forward to our next trip. The farm is in a great location to get around and explore. We went over the bank holiday weekend and went to some great places to eat. When I made the booking Sally suggested I book... More

We had a lovely visit to Rydon Farm. It was great to stay on an actual working farm and the location was a perfect base for visiting Devon. We stayed in the Dart and the Clyst rooms and both were amazing. The breakfast was one of the best we have had and Sally made us feel so welcome. When we... More

Stayed for two nights in May and would happily recommend to anyone. Rooms are large, spotlessly clean and the owners can't do enough to for you. The breakfast is also delicious. We took a stroll into the village both nights.

Sally has thought of everything to make staying at her B&B a lovely experience. We spent two nights at Rydon Farm over the period of Devon County Show (the showground is very close). Our room was immaculate and had everything we could possibly need. The bathroom appeared new and had a super, large shower, lovely toiletries and soft towels. Breakfast... More

We only stayed for 1 night ahead of flying from Exeter airport, but could easily have stayed longer. We were in the Exe room, which has a huge and impressive bathroom and a 4 poster bed. Breakfast was good, and the welcome warm. Watching the cows leaving the milking shed was a new and fascinating experience.

We used to stay at the excellent Rydon Farm B+B every May, when we went down to Devon to visit "Donkey Week" at the Sidmouth Donkey Sanctuary. We broke the habit due to serious illness 5 years ago and tried a few others in the area for a change. This year we went back to Rydon Farm again and what... More

We spent two nights here having found it first on Tripadvisor. Great location, excellent breakfast, comfortable and clean rooms. If I were to be picky, the bath towels could do with being a bit bigger. Very accommodating host. Dog friendly at no extra cost. Definitely worth a visit.

We have just returned from a three day stay at Rydon Farm. Prior to booking we spent some time looking for a location that would meet our needs as my father who was travelling with us is only partially mobile. Having looked at various hotels in the area I was beginning to wonder if we could find something suitable before... More

Rydon Farm was a perfect base for a weekend visit to the Woodbury area. The room was lovely, very clean and comfortable, and our hosts very welcoming. We will certainly try to stay again when we next visit the area.

My husband and I stayed for just one night at Rydon Farm, Woodbury and we wished we could have stayed longer but we were on the move - never mind, this property is in 'must return' book and we shall certainly go back when we visit that area again. The welcome was warm and genuine and our room was wonderful.... More
