We are just coming to the end of our week in the Old Post Office and we have really enjoyed it. The village of Down Thomas is quiet and rural, despite being only four miles or so from the city of Plymouth. This means you get the best of both worlds. There is a good local shop and pub a couple of minutes walk away in the village and another decent pub about 25 minutes walk down the lane. We actually had a walk to Plymouth one day, you can take the cliff path to Mount Batten then get the foot ferry. A taxi back in the evening was very reasonable. The house is comfy and cosy but not too small. Having two bathrooms makes it ideal for two couples/families and a teenager. Said teenager was pleased that the Wi-fi is faster than at home lol. All the bedrooms are a decent size, even the single. The kitchen is really well equipped and contains everything we’ve needed to make proper meals. The bonus is the garden which doesn’t appear on any of the website photos - it is a huge lawned area. It isn’t immediately obvious as you have to go through a courtyard and down a little path to get to it. The cottage was well priced (given that it is high season) and we are very happy with our decision to stay here.

Everything was very good apart from the weather which you have no control over! Gwen left the cottage in good order with a lovely welcome pack. She kept in touch so we felt valued. We would highly recommend this cottage to anyone.

Lovely cottage, very cosy.. Ideal for exploring all parts of Devon and Cornwall. We had 5 adults staying and plenty of room for us all.

We were concerned the vacuum cleaner is kept in a bathroom although we appreciate that it would be difficult to store it elsewhere in the cottage.. .

Would highly rate this cottage, it’s bright, airy and Spacious. With a great layout. Could do with updating a few things like the sofas but apart from that it’s excellent.
