Mazzard Farm Holiday Cottages in East Hill, Ottery St Mary, East Devon, have been brought to market with a guide price of £1.99m.

The freehold estate comprises a four-bedroom 17th Century farmhouse alongside five converted holiday cottages arranged around a central courtyard. 

A one-bedroom annex adjoins the farmhouse, which includes an open-plan kitchen, lounge, conservatory, office and private garden.

The cottages, converted from farm buildings in 2008, each feature open-plan living areas and have supported a profitable business with strong repeat custom and around 90% of bookings made directly. 

The business was named the most ethical, responsible and sustainable business at the 2023 South West England Tourism Awards.

Further development potential exists on site for accommodation such as yurts, shepherd huts or safari tents, subject to planning consent. 

A livery yard with paddocks, stabling and woodland extending to around 10 acres is also available by separate negotiation.

Current owner Ruud Venneboer, who bought Mazzard Farm with Jacqueline Parker in 2007, said: “We purchased Mazzard Farm in 2007 and lovingly transformed the outbuildings before opening for business in July 2008. It has been a pleasure to own and nurture the growth of the business, which has gone from strength to strength over the years.”

He added: “Along the way, we’ve been honoured with multiple awards, the highlight being named the most sustainable tourism business in the entire South West of England in 2023. As we prepare to pass on the baton, we look forward to embracing new adventures and travel and are excited to see Mazzard Farm continue to thrive under new ownership.”

The sale has been initiated by international real estate advisor Savills. Miranda Ashcroft, of Savills Hotel Capital Markets, added: “This is a rare opportunity to acquire a highly desirable farmhouse and business opportunity with development potential. In 2024, £12bn was spent on overnight domestic holiday tourism, and in Q1 2025 domestic holiday trips increased by 11% compared to Q1 2024, according to VisitBritain, highlighting the growing demand for UK staycations.”
