• "Beautiful cottage, clean, comfortable, full of character and with a secure garden and fantastic view."

  Convenient to travel into Kingsbridge by bus or car, and ideal for driving to the stunning walks along the coast path. The pub opposite is friendly and serves a variety of very good meals. We would definitely recommend it.

  Not too far from the coast either.The owners live right next door and were very friendly and helpful whenever we needed to ask them anything. Definitely would like to go back and stay again.

• "We had a great stay at Furneaux Hatch."

  Location was brilliant within quick access to beaches and only a short drive to Kingsbridge for shops. The cottage was really cute, and facilities were excellent. Our hosts lived next door and were really friendly but kept their distance unless we needed them. Only issue was that the fridge freezer packed in on the last day which spoilt our remaining food, the owners would have fixed it for us sooner but as it was our last day we agreed we could live without it for one day.

• "The cottage and surroundings were simply superb and the owners were so welcoming and friendly."

  We have already recommended it to our friends and would love to visit again! One small tweak I would recommend would be a grab rail in the shower to help keep your balance, but really the place is perfect.

  The location of the cottage is perfect for exploring South Hams and it had everything we needed. When there was an unexpected problem during our stay, the owners could not have been more helpful. We would very happily stay at Furneaux Hatch again.

  Spotlessly clean. Blinds and new sink are great additions. Welcome pack best of any cottage we’ve stayed in. Location is also excellent, we can’t fault it!

• "Lovely cottage with stunning views from the garden."

  Property was in great location, decent pub across the road, most beaches and towns like totnes, Dartmouth and salcombe were in a 20 minute drive radius. Lots to do in area. Lovely hamper with high quality products on arrival which was much appreciated. Negatives: Bathroom had unpleasant smell of damp and the downstairs felt a bit dark, but as it is an old cottage this is to be expected, but the photos on the listing made it look a lot lighter than it is. Mattress not supportive and could do with being replaced, gave us sore back. Cottage could do with some electric dehumidifiers upstairs. It felt very clammy upstairs, it was hard to dry towels between use.

• "We had a wonderful stay at Furneaux Hatch."

  Very pretty little cottage and lovely comfortable sofas and beds. Could do with a couple more oven pans, but not a major issue. The garden was beautiful, with stunning views over rolling hills. My favourite place was to sit on the garden chairs watching the sheep. 1 thing that would be a huge benefit, would be to take down a small section of wall/hedging along the furthest edge of the garden, to create a parking space for the car (accessed by the side lane). Instead of having to park a bit further up the lane.

• "From the moment we arrived we were extremely impressed with Furneaux Hatch."

  The location is ideal and the views of the surrounding countryside are breathtaking. On arrival, our hosts, greeted us with a hamper of delicious local produce including bread and milk. The cottage itself provided a lovely atmosphere of tasteful decorations and furniture in a modernised interior. However, the period character has been maintained in all the rooms. Everything was spotlessly clean and all the facilities were just as we were expecting! All in all we really enjoyed our stay and would highly recommend it for a short or long stay at any time of year!

• "1. No bin in bathroom so a bit difficult with young women staying at that time of month."

  Indeed no bins provided anywhere except the kitchen. 2. Oddly no side lamps in the twin room at all. For such a well equipped cottage (and it was beautifully equipped), these two omissions are strange. We moved one leaving the double with only one. 3. We knew it was 9.00 am check out but it really distracts from the cottage enjoyment especially with a long drive so we didn't sleep well. It clearly was 10am before Covid because some of the signs say that. Did not see a cleaner so sure it could be moved back. 4. Owner was very helpful as we had a hot water problem. 5. Garden is amazing with a great view that we had not expected.

• "We had a lovely stay in Furneaux Hatch, it’s a very nice cosy little cottage."

  It’s a listed building and very well maintained throughout and very very clean. We were totally relaxed, as was our small dog. Everything you need is to hand and the owners (who are next door) had kindly left a small food basket and made us aware that if we needed anything at all we only needed to say… The cottage is right next to a lovely peaceful church and opposite a quiet cosy country pub, that serve great food, the staff in the pub are brilliant and gave a warm welcome and the dog got a treat and a blanket to sit on bye a log fire… Inside Furneaux Hatch, the ground floor shower room has been beautifully decorated, and along with the well fitted kitchen has under some floor heating.. The open plan living room is cosy with choice of lighting and two fires.. Just before our arrival new custom fitted shutter blinds had just been very well fitted, they look really nice and work so well complimenting the cottage.. Being a listed building I guess they are limited to what they can do but we thought that a very old lovely old cosy cottage has tastefully been merged with up to date facilities including good Wi-Fi.. Outside, with the cottage being quite high up it gives the opportunity to see some fantastic views all around, this gave an added pleasure to walking the dog down the lanes.. Although the cottage itself doesn’t have its own car parking space it was easy to find a space close bye…. 20 yards up the road is a post office/small store.. Right outside the cottage is a bus stop where No 3 bus stops on the hour linking Dartmouth to Plymouth and the towns between, so we left the car parked and went out on the bus taking in the fantastic views… Our weather was mixed but didn’t spoil anything. Thank you M for a fantastic week… We will be back……

  Thank you for your lovely feedback. We are glad you enjoyed your stay and we look forward to seeing you again. Property Owner

• "We had the most wonderful stay at Furneaux Hatch Cottage."

  The cottage was clean, warm and had everything we needed. Malcom and Carol were very welcoming and dropped in briefly to ask if there was anything else we needed which was lovely. A generous welcome hamper with local produce was a lovely touch and extremely appreciated. The cottage is very well placed near to Bantham Beach, opposite a lovely pub and has the most wonderful views from the rear garden. After our busy days out it was always so relaxing to return to the cottage with the log burning fire, hot shower and a very comfy bed. We really enjoyed our stay here and would definitely give it 5 stars. We look forward to returning shortly.

  Thank you for your lovely comments and we look forward to hosting you again in the future. Property Owner

  The owners who live next door were very welcoming, friendly and helpful, though not intrusive. A lovely welcome hamper on arrival with local produce was very thoughtful and really appreciated too. The cottage was very clean, cosy & warm especially liked the woodburner fire in the lounge on a cold evening. The cottage is situated in a great location, with beautiful views across to Dartmooor from the garden and absolutey perfect for exploring the local area which is stunning. The Church House Inn opposite was wonderful with great food, good atmosphere and very welcoming staff where dogs are most welcome too. We would highly recommend Furneaux Hatch and will definitely be returning again.
