A little message from us at The Burlands about booking direct. ❤️

We've invested a huge amount of time, money and effort into our website and social media, making it easier than ever for you to find us, explore our accommodation and book your stay directly.

But here's the thing. We need you, our guests, to make that change too.

Booking platforms like Airbnb are brilliant for discovering places to stay, and we're grateful for the guests who have found us through them. However, these platforms also charge fees and commissions, which can have a significant impact on small, independent businesses like ours.

When you book directly with The Burlands, you're dealing with us personally, not a third-party booking platform.

Why book direct?

You'll always receive our best available rates and access to any exclusive offers.

You'll deal directly with us, from your first enquiry to the moment you leave.

We can help you choose the right accommodation and make your stay that little bit more special.

More of what you pay goes directly towards maintaining and improving The Burlands, rather than paying third-party commissions.

We've worked incredibly hard to create somewhere special here in the North Devon countryside, and every direct booking genuinely makes a difference.

So here's our little ask...

If you discover somewhere lovely on Airbnb or booking . c o m , take an extra minute to Google the property and see whether they have their own website.

You will find a better deal, you'll receive a more personal service, and you'll be supporting an independent business directly.

And if you're thinking about staying at The Burlands, we'd love you to book through our website.

Thank you for supporting us, sharing our posts, recommending us to friends and, most importantly, choosing to stay with us.

There’s more to The Burlands than a lovely place to stay.

Did you know we have two lakes on the estate, ready for you to explore during your break?

Take your morning coffee down to the water. Find a quiet spot with a book. Enjoy a little fishing or simply sit and watch the wildlife.

No tickets to book. No packed itinerary. Just time to wander and see where you end up. We have local pub and restaurant The Jack Russell and Venn Valley Vineyard and Winery where you can book w**e tasting and tours. Both just a short drive from us or both walkable if you prefer (approx 30 mins downhill maybe a little longer on the walk home 🤭) Do as much or as little as you like.

Save this for your next North Devon escape.
