"A great little place, full of character and ideally situated for exploring South Devon."
While it was small, just two floors, it had everything we needed and the owners couldn't have been more friendly and helpful. The cottage was within walking distance of two recommended eating places and it was an easy drive to get to other centres and beaches.
We'll definitely be going back again.

"Warm and welcoming, the owners left a food parcel with a good selection of essentials, they also provided everything you would need for an home from home experience."
Very comfortable ideal for two either a shout break or longer, short walk to the local bus stop. Although last bus back left Paignton at 5.55pm. A welcome bonus was the garden pool not big but perfect for chilling and relaxing when you get back after a busy day. There's also an assortment of garden games available, sun beds, tables with umbrellas. We loved it and if in the area we’d love to stay again. Highly recommended!

"It was the perfect stay for what I needed."
A lovely peaceful cottage in a nice quiet village where I was able to get some downtime from the noise and busy home life and able to take time to plan my backpacking travels. Matt, Rob and Lisza were very friendly and welcoming. The cottage was really comfortable nice for cosy nights in and the layout is really cool, exposed beams, the bedroom upstairs very spacious with a nice clean good size shower cubicle, basin & mirror. The kitchen had everything you need to cook yourself meals and a table by the window or nice comfy sofa for those lazy evenings. A great location for visiting seaside resorts like Paignton, Brixham and close to Totnes which is one of my favourite places in the UK! I would highly recommend it.

"The cottage is delightful."
Quirky and well equipped. The garden is absolutely beautiful. Shame we didn’t get better weather to enjoy it but that’s English weather! Very helpful, friendly owners. The only problem we had was that the settee was a bit low for my more mature and less mobile husband to get in and out of but that didn’t detract from our wonderful time at this lovely place.

"The cottage was lovely, very quaint and characterful."
The grounds, decking and pool were well planned out, large and well maintained. The cottage was well equipped and had everything we needed for a weeks stay. The location is great. Providing a base to explore many of the beautiful places the area has on offer. The main improvement as it stands would be to have a more sturdy handrail on the stairs. The stairs are very steep (which is not an issue as that is clearly listed), but the handrail is very flimsy and did not feel strong enough to bear much weight at all. Making descending stairs more difficult. After talking to the owners they are planning an overhaul of the property. Eventually an upstairs toilet would be ideal. If you want a place to stay in Devon, which is handy for local attractions but peaceful, beautiful and with character, this will be a perfect choice.

"We had been notified that we would not be staying in our original booking due to some issue."
Instead we had a upgrade that was most satisfactory. Warm welcome on arrival by our host, the cottage had everything you need.
Nice touch is the "welcome basket " and fresh milk. The holiday cottage set in the old part of the village with a 5/10 min stroll to the pub.
If ever in the area again would certainly like to stay again. Highly recommended

"We were upgraded to Rose Cottage and found it to be very clean and comfortable."
Everything worked as it should with great wifi and a cracking smart tv. Car parking was good but the exit onto a narrow road was made a bit more difficult due to some bushes that need cutting back. The present owners have only been there for a few months and i am sure what is already great will get better and better.

All amenities provided including very fast WiFi and smart TV including Netflix. The only slight issue was the step up to the toilet some may find a bit awkward. Had a fab week in October, would recommend.

"The owners were welcoming and friendly."
The cottage was clean and tidy and had some added touches. However, we felt that it possessed some challenges, particularly for older people or those with mobility issues. The stairs were difficult to negotiate and lacked a second handrail, The downstairs toilet was hard to use as the toilet pan was perched on a large step. The shower in the bedroom was very restrictive and hard to manoeuvre in. The issues were to do with the physical makeup up of the building and not to do with any shortcomings of the owners. It was cosy and secluded but these issues rather detracted from our enjoyment.

"We had a relaxing and enjoyable four day break, based at Lilac Cottage."
We thought that this was a lovely cottage for two. The recent additions made by the new owner enhance the cottage and make it more cosy and comfortable. We loved the welcome pack. The location was good for visiting Coleton Fishacre NT, Kent’s Cavern and Dartmouth Steam Railway. We also enjoyed a tasty carvery and dessert at Ye Olde Smokey House.
