A well presented 1 bed cottage in a lovely location. The addition of an indoor swimming pool with sauna and jacuzzi was a welcome addition. Very easy to get to lots of local coastal beaches.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Honey Pot cottage. Stunning views and a quiet, but perfect location to get to all the local attractions, towns and beaches. We hope to return again.

Beautiful accommodation, luxurious bedding, quality crockery, very quiet and donkeys in the field right next to us! Swimming pool lovely and perfect temperature. Very narrow lanes to property (typical of Devon).

Had a lovely stay, will hopefully be back. Some very minor touch ups in the cottage could be beneficial, but other than that it was great. Really beautiful scenery
