Slapton 1.8 miles.
Nestled in Devon’s breath-taking countryside near Slapton in the South Devon Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty is Blackberry Cottage.
This charming, reverse-level holiday cottage benefits from a welcoming, bright and airy interior adorned with characterful features including exposed beams and A-frames and Velux windows, shared access to one and a half acres of grounds with seating areas, barbecue and ponds and a fabulous setting making most of both the countryside and coast; perfect for families or friends looking to explore Devon with their beloved canine companions.
Cross the threshold into your new home-from-home and climb the stairs to reach a sitting room, unwind here on the plush sofa or armchairs in front of the TV and gas flame-effect fire, ideal after a day full of exploration.
Later, wander into the fully-equipped kitchen/diner to rustle up a hearty meal that the whole family can enjoy around the dining table.
When the evening draws to a close, wash off the day in either the shower room or ground-floor bathroom before sloping off to sleep in one of three bedrooms; choose between a ground-floor twin or the king-size or bunk on the first floor.
If you can tear yourself away from this idyllic setting venture into the pretty village of Slapton where you can stock up on all of your self-catering essentials, enjoy a break from the kitchen at local pubs like The Tower Inn or The Queen’s Arms which both serve delicious food.
Be sure to take advantage of the cottages setting close to the beach by exploring the glorious coast at Slapton Sands which has stunning sea views or the iconic Slapton Ley Nature Reserve where you can marvel at local wildlife brimming around the freshwater lake.
Follow the coast to find the historic town of Dartmouth where you can immerse yourself in the area’s history at the Riverside Dartmouth Castle and Bayard’s Cove or while away days upon the sandy and shingle shores of Blackpool sands which is hugely popular with watersports enthusiasts.
Dartmoor National Park is also within reach offering keen ramblers an abundance of walking and hiking trails as well as climbing, cycling and horse riding; all in a picturesque setting.
