The cottage is in a great location. Hannah was extremely helpful when the dishwasher needed attention and it was resolved quickly. The fresh eggs and fugde were enjoyed by us and the welcome treats were enjoyed by our dog. For information: there is a freezer but not in the cottage - it is in the communal area.

This was our first time at this cottage complex, it was a perfect location for our plans to see our friends who live in north Devon, it was very cosy and comfortable. It was great to have the dog walking lane, just make sure you have suitable footwear as it was quite muddy in places especially at the bottom of the hill, it didnt bother the dogs thoRead moreugh!

Lovely little cottage with everything you need. The enclosed area at the front was very useful for our dogs. We loved visiting Saunton Sands beach and the fish and chips in the local pub was excellent.

Lovely cottage in a excellent location for exploring all the wonderful North Devon beaches, about 30 mins away by car. There are also lots of lovely coastal walks within easy reach. The accommodation was clean and spacious for me and my daughter plus 2 dogs. I think it has underfloor heating, we found it very cosy in the cool evenings.
