The cottage was excellent - having both a swimming pool and a pool table was fantastic.. All in the group enjoyed these facilities, but the setting was great as well. We really enjoyed the walks and views around the cottage as well as seeing the sheep. It is a perfect location for a family holiday with things for all members to enjoy. Also, the proximity to Teignmouth makes it easy to find so much more of interest. We would definitely book again!

The Cottage was perfect! Plenty of living space for everyone especially 4 little children. It was so helpful having so many bathrooms. The pool was lovely & warm we used it everyday. Pool table great for the adults & that big room doubled as a play room. Phil & Julie were very welcoming & really encouraged us to explore even letting the children cuddle a lamb. Easy access to the coast & Dartmoor. Thanks very much .

Our hosts were most welcoming and made our family birthday get together a pleasure.. The cottage was warm with a lovely log burner, and swimming pool for the children.
The cottage was very well equipped and covered all our needs.

Great location for a Family gathering - plenty of space in a countryside location & close to Teignmouth.. Ideal base for exploring this part of Devon. The Swimming Pool & the Pool table added to the wow factor.
