We flew into Bristol landing at approx 6pm and we picked up our car and arrived in Ide at about 7:30pm. Its about 1 hr 20 mins from the airport to the B&B. It was a great location for our first stop on our road trip around Cornwall and Devon. We used the post code on the sat nav and... More

We chose this B & B for it's quiet location and proximity to Exeter as a base for a trip to explore Cornwall. It was an excellent choice and great value. Our hosts, Nova and Mike were friendly and helpful, with hints on where to eat and how to travel to our desired locations. Before arriving we were able to... More

I have to say the only reason I chose to stay here was because it was the first place I found on google, but after staying here two nights for a shooting trip I've got to say its the best b&b I've ever stated in, and far better than a lot of hotels! Room was huge and well appointed, good... More

We first stayed at Drakes Farm House 9 years ago as a one-night stopover on the way to Cornwall. It was so nice, cosy, clean and comfortable, the following year we stayed for a week. We have spent a week there every year and even extra breaks in-between. We have just spent two weeks at Drakes Farm and went to... More

I cannot speak highly enough of Drake's Farm House in Ide. Nova and Mick were spectacular, the family room we stayed in was super spacious with three beds in the room (one for two and two singles), the ensuite bathroom was perfect, the breakfast was wonderful, and there was ample off street parking we could even glimpse from our room....

Nova & Michael were great hosts and welcomed us to their lovely home. We were only there for one night but thoroughly enjoyed it - the rooms had everything you could ask for and were spotlessly clean if though dated. Lovely breakfast lots of variety and Nova recommended the local pub for evening meal think it was called the poachers?... More

We very delighted with our one night's bed and breakfast, just what we wanted as we were visiting our son at Exeter University. The room was large, very clean and had all that you would expect. The owners were friendly and very accommodating. We would have no hesitation in recommending Drakes Farm House. More

Don't be put off by the old fashioned decor - this is a lovely place to stay. We had a large and very clean room with ensuite with power shower. Everything you need for a comfortable stay with added extras like a torch, tissues, shower cap etc. The owners were so welcoming and friendly. Cooked breakfast was freshly prepared and... More
