"Before booking any cottage we tend to read the reviews and there are many for Eastdown Annex - all highly positive, which we can throughly endorse."
Rather than repeating these we wanted to add something which will be helpful. We found accommodation in any nearby towns or sites invariably meant parking away from the property. If like us you bring all but the kitchen sink on holiday, it was extremely helpful to park by the entrance - and the Annex couldn’t be more convenient! Paul & Margaret

"Just had a great week at Eastdown Annexe!"
Lyn, the owner, left us a lovely welcome pack and treats for the dog. Really well thought out hideaway close to plenty of places to visit. Will return I'm sure. Thank you!

"The holiday annex was situated in a perfect location, not more than ten minutes from the sea and Dartmouth."
The local store not far away and in the village post office had all the items one would need to be self sufficient. Even down to the birthday card left at home for the wife. The break was for a period of one week and unfortunately weather this year wasn’t to kind and ment only one day on the beach at Slapton sands. The unfortunate situation was our blind dog who developed cataract a week earlier caught his toe nail in the shingles at the annex and needed veterinary care immediately back home. But we enjoyed the three days at the annex before returning home early. We would certainly recommend this accommodation to anyone wanting to visit south Devon. My only critique would be to lay artificial grass instead of shingles in the garden to prevent small dogs tripping or stumbling.

"The Annexe was very well appointed with everything you would need."
It is in an ideal location to travel to the well known tourist attractions and beautiful beaches near by. Lynn is a lovely host and checked in on us to ensure everything was satisfactory. Our holiday experience was greatly enhanced by beautiful sunny, warm weather.

"We had a wonderful stay in Eastdown annex."
Really clean and nothing was left uncatered for. The owner,Lynne, left a lovely welcome pack and couldn’t have been more helpful during our stay. Will definitely be booking again.
-
"Super clean and welcoming."
Quiet surroundings. Very handy for nearby towns and beaches. Comfy bed. Small kitchen but well equipped. Could probably do with some shelf storage above sink but that's a minor point. The welcome pack could list location of nearby petrol stations, closest supermarket, farm shops maybe?

"The property is as described and very well maintained."
We had everything we needed to cook basic meals , the bed was very comfortable and everywhere was spotlessly clean.The milk, eggs and biscuits left to welcome us were much appreciated.We were glad of the fan in the lounge as we did have a couple of hot days but the bedroom remained nice and cool.
-
"Lovely property for two and a dog."
Lyn the owner is very helpful. The annexe is always immaculate. It is in a great location just a few minutes drive from two beaches.
-
"Lovely cosy and clean and comfortable property."
Lyn the owner is very helpful without being intrusive. This is our 5th stay and we are already booked in for next year.
-
"Eastdown Annexe is a superb self contained property tucked away in the South Devon countryside."
I found it to be quiet and very relaxing. There is easy access to the coast and the beaches of Blackpool Sands and Slapton Sands. Dartmouth is close to hand as well with river trips and steam train rides to Paignton. Lyn was very friendly and helpful and nothing was too much trouble. It is the perfect place for two or one to get away from it all, and I am looking forward to the day I return. Highly recommended.
-
"Most comfortable 2 bed accommodation set in the countryside."
High standard of presentation on entry to the property. Welcome pack and note from Lyn on the table, and a really comfortable king size bed. Highly recommended. Thanks Lyn Norman & Barbara Jones

"This is the 2nd time we have been to Eastdown Annexe."
It is in a beautiful spot. Everything you need for a comfortable stay, comfy bed and all the amenities you need. The garden is a sun spot with loungers and barbecue. I’m sure we will be visiting again in the future. Thank you to Lynne for the welcome packs for us and our dog.
-
"The website and description for Eastdown Annex do not do it justice - it is better than it looks."
Bedroom and lounge are good size; Kitchen and bathroom are "compact" but will equipped and sufficient for the two of us. Peaceful. Wonderful view over rolling farmland. Quiet location (down a lane but not a white-knuckle ride). Perfect central location for all the places we pre-planned to visit (Dartmouth, Dartington Hall, Compton Castle, Slapton Leys). Also discovered quirky Totnes, food in Torcross, chilling on Blackpool Beach and peace in Tuckenhay (the last is not for the faint hearted driver).
-
"A lovely property set in a idyllic quiet place."
Very secure for your dog. Everything you need is provided like a home from home. Lynne the owner introduced herself and was such a lovely lady. The property was spotlessly clean. No doubt we will return.
-
"A lovely quiet, immaculately clean and superbly equipped abode."
This is my return visit and Lyn has gone out of her way to make ones stay, plus dog, enjoyable. Thank you and I hope to return again soon but meantime will highly recommend your property. Christine McLeod

"Eastdown Annex was lovely just right for us and Millie our Cockapoo with a very secure garden."
Should we need anything then Lyn was there to help. She tells us her son in-law is going to put a handrail by the steps into the property which will be great. I have Spinal Stenosis so needed help getting up and down the steps so that will be much better should anyone else struggle. I would certainly recommend this property and it is in beautiful countryside. Lyn had also left us some treats which does not always happen so again very much appreciated. Thankyou it was all lovely. Jill.

"We found the annexe extremely warm, cosy and comfortable."
It was very clean and had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. Places to visit were not very far away.
-
"Everything we needed."
Warm and comfortable. Owner is very helpful without being intrusive.
-
"Fantastic, Lynn was so helpful and understanding."
Some very nice touches (welcome pack, tea, coffee etc) Will re book at some time in future.
-
"Lovely small bungalow accommodation, just right for two people."
Situated down a country lane, so very peaceful, but only a few miles from Dartmouth and the coast. Ideal for visiting South Devon. Both Torquay and Plymouth are around an hour away, with plenty of other small towns and other attractions within that range. There are quite a few National Trust properties in the area, so having a membership to the NT is a good idea. Another good trip is to visit Buckfast Abbey, its a lovely peaceful location. The only issue we had with the accommodation was due to my wife's poor mobility.she struggled on the small stones used outside the property for the outdoor seating area and also the two steps up to the property itself as there is no rail to hold onto. Will definitely consider the property again next time we are holidaying in the area.

"An amazing Annexe with everything super clean."
-
"All as advertised, met the owner a nice OK Lady !"
Just one thing which would give it a top rating from me is the seating ! In this instance the Sofa ! As a Pensioner who lives on his own should I of taken a fellow Pensioner mate down with me on Holiday then we would of had to of taken a Camp bed ! A nice Sofa Bed in the living room would of caterered for my situation , this is not in anyway a criticism just an observation ! I eventually went on my own anyway but for the future !
-
"We really enjoyed our stay at EASTDOWN."
Everything was perfect very clean and everything we needed for our stay was on hand. We met LYN the owner a lovely lady who deserves to make the letting of EASTDOWN a success. We enjoyed ourselves so much we have booked again for a week in October
-
"What a lovely 2 weeks holiday."
Accommodation was 1st class, the attention to detail1st class. The owner came and introduced herself, and she made us feel welcome. It is set in the beautiful countryside of Devon. Enjoyed it so much we have booked again for 2023.

Extremely clean, beautifully appointed with lots of little extras and very peaceful garden area. Would certainly recommend to anyone wishing for a peaceful break in lovely surroundings
-
"Great rural location within easy reach of many beautiful beaches, towns, heritage railway trips and river cruises."
The property was spotlessly clean and we could not think of anything that was not provided. The welcome pack of milk, eggs and biscuits was much appreciated. The bed was especially comfortable and really helped make a restful stay.
-
"Lovely place, run by a lovely person!"
Lots of peace and quiet in a lovely rural setting. Thanks for the tip about the beach Lynn! Property is well located for accessing various towns in south Devon.
-
"Spotlessly clean with a welcome basket for us and the dog which was a nice touch."
The bed was extremely comfortable. Lovey little gravel garden which was a sunny spot with bistro seating set, a couple of sun beds, and a large BBQ. The kitchen was small but had everything you needed and the shower was nice and hot. Would definitely like to stay there again.
-

We met the owner during our holiday and she was friendly and helpful. Happy to recommend this accommodation.
-
"Absolutely lovely stay, the cosy accommodation was well equipped and spotlessly clean."
The outside space was perfect for the dog. The lovely little touches from Lyn made it home from home We stayed for 3 nights which was relaxing after some lovely walks We ete a couple of times at The Sportsmans, a short drive away, would highly recommend too.
-
"Very comfortable with good quality furnishings and fittings."
Thoughtful welcome basket really appreciated after a long journey. Only 15mins to Dartmouth and the coast plus lovely starry skies on clear nights. Would recommend and stay again. Just as described on the website.
-
"Small but comfortable."
The only problem we had was the hot water system, one minute we had hot water the next it ran cold, when it ran hot it was too hot. The shower was very good though. It was the kitchen taps and bathroom taps that were the problem.
-
"A private comfortable little cottage in a good location."
The only issue we had was with the heating, it was cold on our first night. However you rectified this quickly and the rest of our stay was enjoyable.
-
"This was a little heaven hide away!"
It seems like your in the middle of no where, however there was a lovely pub up the road and only about 15 minutes away from Dartmouth and Dartmouth town is beautiful. Really dog friendly and we will definitely stay here again.
-
"A lovely well kept property."
We had a lovely time. Thank you
-
"We had a wonderful stay at this lovely little annex, it was big enough for two adults and a dog, very clean and a beautiful location."

"Lovely setting, peaceful ,spotlessly clean, taste full furnishings cannot remember when we have felt so at home, would recommended it to anyone wanting a good place to holiday."

"I was slightly worried because the annexe looked quite small."
It is small but well designed and had everything we needed.Not sure the picture in your brochure does it justice. We were very pleased that the place was spotlessly clean and the bed very comfortable.
-
"Great farm location for visiting the area."
Very clean well equipped with everything you could need Very comfy bed. Fully enclosed garden great for the dog.
-
"Booking the property was not satisfactory."
An unexplained sum of £25 was added to the bill and was only visible on line after payment was made. It has been impossible to get an answer on the telephone for an explanation. This was the first time using sykes, and will more than likely use Toad Hall next time. Have to say that the property was fine.
-
"A delightful and guite luxurious holiday accommodation one to keep in mind for the future."
Favourite spot .having a cup of coffee at Dartmouth Castle looking over the beautiful river Dart
-
"We had a brilliant week, weather was good Eastdown was comfortable and we did manage a distanced chat with the owner despite covid and she was very welcoming."
Plenty to do in and around Dartmouth without having to go very far. Will want to try it again when covid is out of the way and going out is easier.
-
"Our stay at Eastdown Annexe was fantastic, we wish we had stayed longer and we would be happy to return and recommend."
The annexe was very well presented on arrival, cleaned very thoroughly and there was a lovely welcome basket with a few essentials for us and the dog. The annexe is very well equipped; a lovely big bed, generous bedroom storage, a very good shower and a kitchen will all the pots, pans and utensils you could possibly need. The location of the annexe is great, secluded, private yet easy to find. Slapton Sands (dog friendly beach) is only a 10 minute drive and is very beautiful. Dartmouth is a twenty minute drive which is great for stocking up on essentials. We also found a number of walks to be taken from the annexe itself which were enough to keep the dog happy.
-
"Eastdown Annexe is a great place to be if you are just a couple or have a dog."
Just 3 miles from Dartmouth, it is located in the countryside and is superb. The facilities are great and the place is very safe and secure, in a great location to explore the surrounding coast. I will definitely go back, I loved it!

About the location
DARTMOUTH
Totnes 12 miles.
Dartmouth lies on the banks of the beautiful River Dart estuary in the popular and picturesque South Hams area of South Devon. Located within an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty and close to the coast, Dartmouth is one of the most popular tourist destinations in Devon. It offers a stunning waterfront, ancient narrow streets lined with boutique shops, restaurants and art galleries plus many local events such as the annual Dart Music Festival and the Port of Dartmouth Royal Regatta, along with the Dartmouth Food Festival held every October. There are many interesting cycling and walking routes around Dartmouth, including the South West Coast Path, the Dart Valley Trail and plenty of quiet country lanes. A trip on the Dartmouth Steam Railway through picturesque countryside to Paignton is a must, and so is a boat trip across to Kingswear and on to Brixham, a pretty little harbour town. For those seeking some beach activities, there is a wide choice in the South Hams area such as Blue Flag Award winner Blackpool Sands, and Slapton Sands, both extremely popular and just a stone's throw from Dartmouth. A relaxing location in South Devon.
