A brilliant little place to spend cosy nights in! Very close to A38 so excellent transport links to Plymouth / Exeter. Lovely decoration, very clean and loves the warm fire and wine on arrival

This cottage was definitely one of the best we've stayed at. Very well equipped throughout, very comfortable and in a quiet location. Very friendly owners who made us most welcome. Ideal for a quiet holiday for two.
