  We also had a visit to see how things are from the owners, which was a great touch. For a couple, it was perfect away from home. Highly recommended.

  Although the property is on a main road, we were out all day, and it was quiet at night. Very convenient location for exploring East Devon by bus and for walking.

• "Cottage equipped to a high standard, very clean and well kept, well organised with good information."

  Ideal location for walking with the Exe estuary 5 minutes away and lovely walks into Exmouth. Close to bus routes into Exeter and Exmouth. Secure parking for a car. Owners very welcoming and helpful. Ideal for active couple, would not suit anyone with mobility issues as stairs to bedroom could be a challenge.

  Thank you for your positive comments. We are glad you enjoyed your stay. We hope that we have provided sufficient description and pictures of the steep stairs on the website. Colin & Jacqueline Property Owner

  Sadly the weather changed one or two of our plans but we still had a lovely week in Exmouth. This cottage is located on the Exeter Road, very close to bus stops into Exmouth and Exeter and both a Co—op and a petrol station.

  Thank you for your feedback. The owners were most disappointed to hear of your hot water struggles as they only live next door and were on hand to assist any way they could during your stay. Unfortunately the fridge does not contain a freezer compartment , but there are some books left in the property for a rainy day.

  The facilities were good but let down by the fridge. We always provided either a fridge freezer or fridge with a good sized freezer box, the self defrosting types, now widely available, means you do not have problems between changeovers. The bed was particularly comfortable. A very good cottage that we definitely use again when visiting our family in Exeter.
