The cottage was superb, beautifully presented and so clean with wonderful gesture on arrival of scones, clotted cream and jam with a bottle of bubbly and fresh flowers not forgetting the treats for our fur baby. It was idyllic. Its a little out of the way so expect to travel down some narrow lanes but well worth it and we loved the walk up the laRead morene on to the south west coast Path, within minutes we had beautiful sea views and enjoyed trips to various Devon towns. The kitchen had all the equipment needed to comfortably cook there and we felt at home immediately, would highly recommend recommend, the setting of the cottages is stunning. Hide

A real find: excellent, well-equipped, dog-friendly cottage in a super location. The cream tea and treats for the dogs awaiting our arrival were an unexpected bonus. A good heating system with a simple, responsive control - why cant all holiday cottages be like this! Excellent meals to be had at the Hunters Inn nearby.
