Property code: OC-SUMMER

Overlooking the East Lyn River, this delightful stone and redbrick cottage is a welcoming retreat with sumptuous interiors and a gorgeous patio garden in the heart of historic Lynmouth. Ideal for a friend or family gathering on the North Devon coast, nobody will be left behind with one or two canine companions welcome to join you on your West Country extravaganza.

Enter via a light and airy hallway with plenty of space for boots and coats, then move through to the cosy living room with its roaring wood burner that’s sure to be a hit with the hounds. The fully equipped kitchen/diner is a sociable place to spend time with loved ones, preparing and sharing a delicious meal. Alternatively, head out to the beautiful patio garden to the front of the property and dine alfresco overlooking the river and woodland beyond whilst Rover sniffs around the enclosed borders. After a long day of adventure, soak tired legs in the family bathroom''s tub, then head to bed in one of three inviting bedrooms, two of which enjoy more of those wonderful river views.

The twin villages of Lynton and Lynmouth are linked by road and by an incredible water-powered funicular railway, the only one of its kind in the world still in operation. Furry friends are welcome to ride with you and will find thirst-quenching bowls of water provided upon entry and exit. Lynmouth''s vast shingle beach is 300 metres from your door and welcomes pooches year-round with plenty of rock pools to investigate and other woofs to meet. The South West Coast Path passes through the village, leading to magnificent cliff-top scenery and walks to get tails wagging. After all that exercise, head to either of the village''s pubs and receive a warm reception for both you and your pawed pal. More often than not, a doggie treat or two will be awaiting their arrival!

A welcoming, comfortable and warm cottage located on a quiet road but close to the town, it has a well appointed kitchen with a dining table that will sit 6 comfortably. the living room is spacious and light and there is a pretty courtyard garden with 2 caf style tables at the front. Parking is easy enough once you get the hang of the permit systemRead more, a digital permit would have been better than having to write a permit voucher each day before noon. Hide

A beautiful and comfortable cottage that feels homely. The cottage was clean throughout and smelt fresh upon arrival. Great location, having a parking permit made parking much easier in such a busy village. Would highly recommend this cottage, second time we have stayed and would certainly return.

Summerville is a home from home in the most gorgeous location right at the side of the river. It's spacious, really well equipped and beautifully decorated. We literally wanted for nothing. It's close enough to walk into Lynmouth and Lynton, and also the start of some beautiful walks. We were very lucky with the weather, but even if it had been awfRead moreul, we had a lovely base to come back to. Hide

Well equipped cottage in a great location. Parking outside was OK when we needed it but isn't reserved so would recommend buying a 7 day permit from the council in High season which allows parking just across the bridge and in lots of other car parks.

The cottage easily sleeps a family of 6, we didn't bring our dog, but the cottage is suitable for pets.

Had a lovely stay at Summerville, thank you for the lovely cake and milk very much appreciated after a long journey. The property was lovely and quiet, very clean and spacious. The only negative we found was the overgrown trees in the front garden that made inside dark, and made it unable to have the evening sitting out. This has been raised to Read morethe housekeeper who has said she will speak with the owners. We would return to Summerville in future with no hesitation. Hide
