Countryside Holiday in Devon

Reconnect with nature at this unforgettable escape. The Piggery gained it's name from it's affectionate neighbours (our kunekune pigs), but it's far from slumming it. We recently renovated to bring you up to date comfort and luxury, whether you're relaxing in the private garden (don't worry, the pigs are behind a fence so won't steal your salad), snuggling up to watch your favourite film with our superfast satellite wifi or using it as a base to explore the local area, you're sure to be in for a treat.

Creatures great and small

During your stay you're likely to be visited by our friendly and inquisitive free-range pygmy goats who are brother and sister (Boris and Fern). We're sure that our much-loved Kunekune pigs would love to meet you and maybe you can collect eggs for breakfast from our hens (if it's laying season).  You may also get visited by our 4 cats.


Peace, quiet

and space to unwind 

Backlands is off the beaten track, away from any main roads and overlooking the local farms and hillside.  You'll have access to the Piggery and it's private garden as well as ample parking right outside the property.  The local village is a short drive or 20 minute walk away and has 2 shops (1 being a post-office), a pub and a cafe.  Witheridge is in the middle of both Dartmoor and Exmoor so provides an ideal starting point to explore everything that the Devonshire countryside has to offer.
