Holiday Rental Description

Holiday home
Ash Cottage, sweet, detached barn conversion in the quiet village of Longdown. Four miles from the historic cathedral city of Exeter, and on the edge of the Dartmoor National Park. Well placed for exploring the area, this bright, welcoming cottage is within easy reach of many sandy beaches and lots of family friendly tourist attractions. On the ground floor the open plan living/kitchen/diner has a lofty full height ceiling and smart wooden floors. Sitting above, reached via a striking wooden staircase, is the first floor mezzanine. Here you'll find twin beds tucked neatly into the eaves. The master bedroom and stylish family bathroom are both situated downstairs. Outside your own private patio garden from which to sit and watch the sun set, and on a clear days take in the spectacular views towards Exeter.

Accomodation Details
Ground Floor: Open Plan Lounge/Kitchen/Diner. Bedroom 1 with double bed. Shower Room with shower, WC and washbasin. First floor mezzanine: Bedroom 2 with twin beds (best suited to adults or older children due to the open stairs - no door).

Area
Exeter is city in south Devon with a cathedral, historic quayside with artisan shops and cafés, guided tours of the underground passages and bars, shops and restaurants. There are museums tracing the city’s history including 'The Tucker’s Hall'. Nearby, Parliament Street is less than 25 inches wide. Rougemont castle's gatehouse and tower still stand, surrounded by gardens. Within a 15 minute drive of the city, there are beaches at Sidmouth and Exmouth, and the Jurassic Coast, all provide ample opportunities for relaxation, sport and exploration. Exeter is an ideal base from which to explore countryside and Heritage Coast.

Sharon and David were very nice and looked after us really well.. The cottage was lovely and cosy and we really enjoyed our stay there. There were card games, board games; even a pair of binoculars with a diary to note down the local wildlife that we spotted. They also provided a very unexpected welcome hamper. Overall a very well equipped cottage and the best holiday we've had with Sykes Cottages! (so far) Although it snowed quite a lot (it was January so bad weather was inevitable), there were lots of local walks; Exeter was only up the road and Dartmoor was just a short drive away. If you're into geology then Dawlish and the coastiline is definitely worth a visit and is also only a short drive away. We thoroughly enjoyed ourselves and have recommended the cottage to our friends and family.

The cottage was cosy, warm, comfortable, well stocked with everything that you needed.. Lovely little extra touches left ie milk and cream plus a beautiful Xmas hamper. Great location and quiet just perfect for our Xmas winter break and we would definitely go back!!

Excellent little country cottage for 2 to 4 people.. Very warm and comfortable with lots of thought gone into making our stay a bit special by the owners. Highly recommended and great if you want to visit the surrounding moors or cities.

Ash cottage is in an ideal place to explore Devon.. The cottage itself has commanding views of the countryside looking towards Exeter. The welcoming basket of goodies was most appreciated and consumed.

It took absolutely ages to make the booking.. We had a provisional booking for many months and when you did get around to asking us to confirm that provisional booking, you allowed us only 24 hours to complete. You where not prepared to take an 8-day booking, demanding 7 or 14 days, even though the owners are perfectly happy to take bookings of more than 7 days. Finally, you have bombarded us with marketing emails, sometimes more than twice in a day.
