Fab self catering. Plus good location for the wiscombe hill climb. V. Friendly too.

The first amazing thing about Higher Wiscombe is that, if you want to get away from it all, here, you really can. It is in a stunning, beautiful rural location apparently miles from anywhere and has no neighbours apart from rare breed sheep. There are several self catering units on site, one of which is really big, and as it is graded 5 star these are at the top end of the market. The owners go to a lot of trouble to maintain their high standards and look after their guests, and they live on site. It isn’t just the scenery that’s green, the business is too and guests are strongly encouraged to recycle. Unless you are a walker, you’ll need a car to explore the area, which is perhaps not so green, but Honiton station is not so far away so you could go there by rail and hire one locally. Supermarkets deliver despite the long drive — this is self catering after all. There is a small swimming pool and a recreation area.
