  • "Beautiful cottage and garden."

    Lots of extra touches such as a freshly baked loaf, fresh flowers and warm welcome made this a special place to stay.

    Hi Claire, I'm so glad you had a good stay here and enjoyed the cottage. It was lovely to meet you all. Linda Property Owner

  • "An absolute gem of a property."

    We stay at many cottages during the year, but this one must be the best. Absolutely spotless, everything you could need. Beautiful gardens maintained by the lovely lady owner who lives next door. Never intrusive but there if required ( an 11pm hassle with boiler sorted out) a welcome pack of so many things, but the fresh flowers in every room and homemade bread were a lovely touch. A lovely rural location but quite central for travelling around Devon and surrounding areas !!

  • "Beautiful ancient property with lovely gardens that run down to the river."

    Fabulous birdwatching spot- we saw nuthatches, woodpeckers, goosander and dippers with a plethora of garden birds. Very well equipped and comfortable.

The property

The Miller’s Cottage, a charming two-bedroom abode full of character and original features is nestled in the enchanting village of Jacobstowe near Hatherleigh, Devon.

With a woodburning stove to keep you cosy, and two en-suite bedrooms, this cottage offers the perfect rural retreat for couples or families alike, just a stone’s throw away from the Dartmoor National Park.

Cross the threshold into The Miller’s Cottage and you’ll be welcomed by a characterful interior that extends throughout, with wooden beams and vaulted ceilings; the open-plan kitchen/diner is the perfect spot for rustling up delicious home-cooked meals with all the necessary cooking utensils and a utility room is also provided for further convenience.

After dinner, retire to the sitting room and curl up on the sofa with a good book, or simply admire the roaring flames of the woodburning stove; alternatively, if you’d prefer to make the most of your surroundings, why not head outside to the enclosed garden so you can bask in the last of the sun’s rays with a cold beverage in hand.

When sleep calls, retreat to the first floor, you’ll find two beautifully-styled bedrooms; a super-king-size with a TV and an en-suite walk-in shower room and a king-size with a TV and en-suite access to the Jack-and-Jill bathroom.
