Two bedroom stone cottage near Dartmoor and Devon beaches
About this house rental
Located in Ashburton, this charming house for $82 per night is a great choice for your next break. Milk Churn Cottage is part of a 17th Century Manor House and is located within a walled courtyard shared by two other cottages with its own private access and car parking facility. The building was previously part of a large working farm and the 'Milk Churn' is where the milk would have been placed before going out for delivery. It has recently been refurbished and boasts a new bathroom along with a lounge and two bedrooms. There is one double bedroom and the other has bunk beds. The cottage is located close to the main A38 which goes to Plymouth and Cornwall so access to the tourist sites of Devon and Cornwall is very easy. It is within walking distance of the town of Ashburton, known for its Antiques Trail and long history as the centre of the wool and mining industries of days gone by. It is also within walking distance of a pub/restaurant at Furzeleigh Mill as well as the town of Buckfastleigh which hosts the South Devon Steam Railway running to Totnes. Access to Dartmoor is within ten minutes by car and the beaches of South Devon are less than half an hour's drive. We are currently ensuring that the property remains empty for 36 hours between each guest in order to minimise the risk of Covid19 transmission.

We found the accommodation fantastic, very clean, up to date and suitable for our needs. Lovely new kitchen and all round presentation.
A small issue was dealt with quickly with great comms from the owners who are friendly and personable. I wouldn’t hesitate to book again.

We had a very tranquil time at the cottage. It was clean and well provisoned. An added bonus was that it was only a four minute drive from Buckfast Abbey. We stayed there for a quiet holiday but the location also provides access to oter locations such as Paignton and Torquay. We met the owner of the property and he was very friendly. We are very likely to return in the future.

Perfect for Devon Exploration
MCC is well equipped, clean & comfortable. Mark was on hand & made us feel welcome. The cottage is easy to heat & there was plenty of hot water. The court yard is perfect for out door lunches/dinners. The property along with the other 2 cottages in the courtyard would be perfect for large family gatherings. The only addition that would be welcome would be a washing machine. The cottage handbook was informative, providing information on local amenities & attractions. Also the walk suggestions from the property were a good way to see the immediate area. Would recommend the next door neighbour’s eggs which are on sale from an honesty stall just up the road. Would certainly return here if back in the area.

We will be back!
The listing was as described (washing machine was on when we booked but has since been removed - it isn’t something I look forward on holiday so is a moot point!
Location is ideal
Local amenities are just what we need.
The touches that the owner adds are a welcome addition - the welcome pack means we could have a cuppa with a biscuit while we unpacked without having to go out again!
All the facilities in the cottage are of a really high quality!
The owners are really helpful & the bed is SO comfortable!
This is a gem of a find!!

Milk churn cottage
Milk churn cottage was very clean and well equipped. We had a comfortable stay and we were very happy with the property overall. The location was beautiful with easy access to local tourist attractions and coastal areas. Mark and Helen were very welcoming and helpful. We would definately visit again and would not hesitate to recommend this property for a holiday in a beautiful part of Devon.

Lovely upside down property in the middle of the countryside, perfect for walks and seeing nature. Welcome gifts were a lovely touch, as well as the useful walking guides, which we used a few times.

Break from london
Very comfortable and peaceful stay.

The property was a good size and was able to work for us with a 9 month old baby. The property was very clean and comfortable and we thoroughly enjoyed our stay.
The owners were welcoming without being intrusive and although there was nothing we needed from them I have no doubt they would have assisted if we had any queries or anything additional for the property.
The location is just off a main road but we did not notice the noise if the road.
Being a short drive from the coast and Dartmoor, we were able to make the most of both, especially with the good weather we had.
We would like to return to the area as feel we didn't do/see everything we wanted to.
We would definitely stay at the property again.

Great Location for a Getaway
Fantastic location away from the mayhem, perfect for relaxation and surrounded by beautiful countryside, great for outdoor activities. The barn was well equipped, warm and comfortable. The owners thoughtfully left some essentials of milk, bread, tea, etc ready for us upon arrival. We stayed for a whole week so would have been good to have a washing machine (listed as having one in the ad), this would be my only gripe and would love to return!

Brilliant
Very comfortable, clean, stylish, spacious house. Warm too. Just what we were looking for.
Check in difficult because HomeAway didn’t send us the details, and the App didn’t work. But owner responded to us very very quickly.
