Very welcoming place! We loved the little treats and notes left for us, and the host was super responsive. The beds were comfy and there were lots of games for all ages. We especially loved having our meals all together at the huge table! The hot tub was a bit tricky to manage, and one more shower would be handy for a big group, but overall we had a great stay!

About the host

Hosted by Colleen

Host profile image
Hello and welcome!

We’re Shaun and Colleen, and together with our two children and our four-legged pooch, we’re delighted to welcome you to Paddon Moor House.

We live locally and love spending our spare time outdoors, exploring the incredible natural beauty of North Devon and Cornwall—whether that’s enjoying a day at the beach or hiking across the moors. We truly hope you’ll find the area just as stunning and special as we do.

A little about Paddon Moor…
This home holds a very special place in our hearts. It was Shaun’s childhood home—full of happy memories and the setting for many family gatherings. Built in the early 1900s, it originally served as a working dairy farm, where Shaun’s father began his career. Shaun’s parents later raised their two children here, creating a warm and welcoming family home.

Now that they’ve moved into a smaller property to enjoy a quieter retirement, we’re proud to open Paddon Moor House to guests. Our hope is that other families can experience its charm and create wonderful memories of their own.

We genuinely hope you enjoy your time here as much as we do.

Warm wishes,
Colleen & Shaun
