Reviews
What little beauty Small but very well stocked everything we needed including cake & milk ! Our first break since the start of Covid & I have to say it was well prepared for the “new way of life “ since Covid . Would book again Good parking for our 4x4 even if the Devon lanes aren’t ! My only negative is the electric shower Scolding hot or freezing cold needs replacing as a danger !
Just got back from a wonderful week in Devon. The location was perfect, just what we needed! A week of relaxing, walking the dogs and the odd glass of wine!! The cottage was very clean and comfortable and was equipped with everything we needed. The welcome card, Lemon Drizzle Cake and milk was a lovely touch. I was a little worried staying away from home with the Covid situation but there was plenty of hand wash, hand sanitizer and anti bac spray (We had taken our own too) Also the additional information given regarding the extra precautions taken gave me peace of mind. The garden was lovely too, quiet, relaxing and private. The dogs loved it, especially watching the cows in the field next door. It was so good we’ve just booked for 2 weeks next year!! Thank you for a lovely holiday xx
We enjoyed a really restful week here. It is very well equipped, with everything we needed and more (other than a hair dryer - maybe we didn't look far enough). It has a secluded garden with picnic bench (a couple of deck chairs might have been nice to relax in the sun!), and a nice airy and bright kitchen/conservatory. A very comfortable break in a lovely, very quiet, village, with good local walks.
Cosy well appointed cottage in a secluded position, quaint 16th century 'Dolhin' pub within a short walk from cottage, really enjoyed our stay, was given a warm welcome from Claire the property manager, very welcoming log burner in the lounge for the colder nights,virtually every thing we needed for a comfortable stay...would definitely book again
