A characterful cottage with tranquil countryside vistas set in the sleepy village of Tedburn St Mary and within easy reach of Exeter. This rustic retreat is perfect for a small family or couple adventuring with their favourite four-pawed companion. Grab the lead and set off on a wildlife-spotting adventure along the winding estuary trails of the Exminster Marshes with plenty of intriguing scents to explore, then stretch soggy paws for a snooze by the crackling wood burner in your lounge.

This stylish property boasts a charming country interior with exposed beams, a traditional stone inglenook fireplace, and earthy tones and textures throughout. Stroll beneath the archway to the cottage entrance then unravel yourself from layers of woolly scarves and hats. Pad into the farmhouse kitchen/diner and pop the kettle on for a post-adventure brew and treat your waggy-tailed pal to a chew. There is also a handy utility room for sprucing up any mucky pups of the group. Whip up a hearty feast overlooking the lush garden then gather the pack for a celebratory supper at the wooden dining table beside the feature exposed wall. Retire to the cosy lounge and sink onto the plush seats then settle in for a movie marathon on the Smart TV. Scope out the cosiest nook for a fluffy dog bed in the two bedrooms upstairs, consisting of a bright king-size and an airy twin. Early risers can sip their morning coffee perched on the outdoor furniture while your curious dog roams in the enclosed lawned garden.

Cultured canines can explore the hound-friendly city of Exeter, 10 miles, to sniff and stroll amongst the impressive Gothic architecture or settle in for a leisurely lunch on the heated terraces overlooking the quayside where refreshing bowls of water are provided. Bound, roll, and wave-crash along the doggy-designated section of shoreline at Dawlish Warren Beach, 20 miles, or scamper along the woodland paths to the cascading waters of Becky Falls, 25 miles, and settle in for a picnic on the rocks. ?

This is a gem of a holiday cottage. It has everything you need, is comfortable, clean and has a lovely garden with a great view, and we were supplied with biscuits and milk on arrival. I would not hesitate to go back there.

The cottage was beautifully decorated, and stocked with everything we could need, including all the requisites for the wood burner, which we enjoyed lighting each evening. Great location, handy for Dartmoor, and easy to find off the A30. Highly recommended

We had a wonderful stay in this delightful cottage. It is very well equipped and comfortable with lovely views across the countryside. The owners have a keen eye for detail & nothing is overlooked. Celebrating our (adult) twins birthday, we loved sitting in front of the woodburner playing boardgames in between country walks. Highly recommend.

Absolutely loved our stay in this beautiful spotless cottage, countryside views from all windows. Was lovely sitting in the garden for our morning coffee overlooking the sheep in the next field.
