Located in the pretty village of Marldon, this cosy retreat is ideal for couples, friends or small families looking to enjoy the Devon countryside and coast. With the English Riviera within easy reach (2.5 miles), there’s plenty to fill your days – whether that’s relaxing by the sea, wandering through charming towns or going on scenic walks. Paignton (2.5 miles) has a lovely sandy beach and classic seaside atmosphere, while the historic fishing town of Brixham (7 miles) is the place to be for waterfront cafés, restaurants and freshly caught seafood.

Step into the welcoming hallway of this reverse-level cottage and leave your coats and shoes. On the ground floor are two beautifully finished bedrooms – a spacious double and a king-size with an en-suite shower room, both with Smart TVs. There’s also a separate shower room with a walk-in shower and WC. Upstairs, the bright open-plan lounge, kitchen and dining area is lovely for spending time together, with comfy seating, a Smart TV and a decorative wood burner (not in use) for plenty of character. The contemporary kitchen has everything you need for easy holiday cooking, and there’s a dining table for sitting down to relaxed meals. From the lounge, step outside and down a couple of external steps to the paved courtyard, where outdoor furniture provides the perfect spot for sunny afternoon teas. You’ll have private parking for two cars within the courtyard.

You’re just 5 miles from Totnes, a characterful market town with winding streets, independent shops, cafés and an impressive castle overlooking the countryside. For outdoor adventures, head to Dartmouth (15 miles) where you can partake in water sports along the river and coast. Dartmoor National Park (15 miles) is fabulous for walking, cycling and horse riding among dramatic moorland scenery.

We enjoyed our holidays in Kiln Cottage. It was hot during our stay, and it was perfect to sleep on the ground floor. Kitchen and living room above were very nice and comfortable, lots of equipment and books. We enjoyed sitting outside in the evening. It was great having a dishwasher, washing machine and 2 bathrooms.

We had a lovely week at Kiln Cottage. It is very comfortable, extremely well equipped and provides a relaxing base from which to explore the many towns and attractions of the area. On returning to the cottage it was reassuring to have allocated parking and the beautiful courtyard garden, with quality furniture, was a real bonus. The Church HouseRead more Inn, a short walk from the cottage, was well worth the visit with a good beer garden and restaurant. If returning to the area, we would have no hesitation in re-booking Kiln Cottage. Hide
