Lovely property,love walking out the garden gate straight on the Tarka Trail & walking down to the Old Mill pub for a nice meal. 5 minutes down the road by car & your close to the beach & more walks. The weather could have been kinder to us but it was a real chill holiday but the Netflix was very useful, shame we couldnt sit outside & enjoy the seaRead moreting area which was great. Warm house which made us feel right at home, place was spotless & the welcome pack was huge which we throughly enjoyed, Hide

Great location,cottage excellent,and garden very dog friendly as also fully enclosed. Tarka trail right outside from front door so great for evening walks. Beach only five minutes away,maybe too far to walk so take into account car parking fees. One of best holidays we have had,and will be booking again.
