"The cottage was delightful with modern decor and everything was immaculate. We had no hesitation in using items out of the cupboards without having to wash them first and the sheets and towels were snowy white. We had full control of the heating, such an important feature when the weather is so changeable . The views are wonderful and a delight to wake up to. Owners are on hand if needed and they are really nice and welcoming."

"A group of four spent a week at this location. From the moment we arrived the owners were friendly and very helpful. The property was spotless and nicely decorated with everything you need for a stay. The beds are amazing to sleep in. The location is perfect to explore Devon as it's fairly central so easy to branch off to different places. The fishing lake is one of the best places we have ever fished. We literally caught one after another and all were good sizes. We will definitely be staying again and can not recommend this highly enough."
