  • "Is only two years old in 2024 comfy and nicely decorated, very dog friendly ."

    More space than I was expecting. Access - if you’re coming from Exeter direction, take Port Road on the right, just before Sainsburys. Taking Fore street in Kenton, your first option and the way the satnav took us, is the long way round on very narrow roads. Good array of crockery and cutlery. Plenty of fridge and freezer space. Large smart TV. Would highly recommend. Plenty of local pubs and takeaways .

    Thankyou for your kind positive feedback. Great to hear you enjoyed your stay. Thankyou for the heads up re sat nav and directions. We have addressed this issue previously but will look into it again. Kind Regards, Sharon & Dave Property Owner

    I found the lounge sofa uncomfortable.

    Reviewed by Dave5.0Oct 2023

  • "The cottage was lovely except from the small bedroom - NOT for older adults I’m afraid - the fault was the bunk bed - FAR too big for the room with a low ceiling AND could only get out one side - (ok for children) luckily we found the bed settee or our stay would of been miserable - they really should do something about that as sleeping in the living room with the stairscase leading from it to the rest of the cottage its not very convenient - also a long wall mirror is needed in both rooms rather than on the landing but that’s a very small matter - the bunk beds were a definite no no for us - if that was changed we would definitely book that cottage again."

    Many thanks Lorraine.

    Beautiful inside, comfortable furnishings and clean . My husband was impressed with the size of the tv and the very comfortable bed. Lovely little courtyard garden, with Dawlish Country park less than 10 minutes away in the car , if like us you need to give your dog exercise. Would definitely recommend to friends & book this for ourselves if visiting Devon again.

    e. no foil or cling film or worktop spray sanitisers.

  • "Fabulous cottage, everything thought of for you to be able to enjoy your stay."

    Dawlish Country Park 3 minutes away for great dog walking and dog friendly beaches at Teignmouth and Dawlish Warren (very difficult with a pushchair, some families really struggled in the dunes to get to the dog beach). Mum did struggle with the height of the bath(80 years old) so that may be something to consider. All in all the perfect holiday experience and an immaculately clean cottage.

    Thankyou so much for your kind and lovely feedback. We're glad you enjoyed your stay with us and were able to get out and about to explore the area. Re height of bath. Sorry this caused a problem for your mum. We have provided a "step up" to help with this but will take into account that this may not be suitable for all guests to use. Glad you enjoyed your stay.

    From the minute we opened the front door we were amazed at how wonderful the cottage was, it was so well presented and modern everything had been thought about, all those little extras that make your holiday. We loved the comfort and well set out rooms we would definitely stay again. The dogs loved being there lots of places to go walking, everywhere we visited were happy to see the dogs and welcomed them. We would recommend that if you get the chance you too would enjoy your stay.
