This is the scene that will greet you on arrival. Stunning!
Mount Pleasant Lodge is in a glorious setting with delightful, beautifully maintained gardens to enjoy.
The spacious kitchen/dining-room looks out over the gardens. The stairs in the corner lead to the living-room.
The extremely well-equipped kitchen is set at the far end of the dining-room. The utility-room is through the door to the right of the picture.
The main bedroom has plenty of space and a luxurious king-size bed.
This is the start of the Jurassic Coast at Sidmouth, a short drive from the other side of Honiton.
This is the view from the front of the Lodge - there are doors to the gardens from both the kitchen/dining-room and the living-room.
Cooking up a treat for friends and family is a pleasure in this lovely contemporary kitchen.
This really is just the place for an elegant dinner to celebrate your holiday.
Another view of the main bedroom.
You will be tempted to have a long lie in in this comfortable room.
The en suite wet-room is down a couple of steps from the main bedroom.
This is the other double bedroom, just as calming and comfortable as the master.
There is a door to the patio so you can lie in bed, and let the fresh morning air and the sound of birdsong in.
You will start each day relaxed and refreshed.
The newly refurbished bathroom is stunning.
A super spacious and modern bathroom awaits. Perfect for unwinding in after a full day of adventure.
The living-room has a choice of wonderfully comfortable reclining chairs, with a wood-burning stove for out-of-season evenings.
There is also a private sheltered area at the side of the Lodge. It is quite a suntrap. This area can be enclosed if you wish.
What a fabulous spot to enjoy a glass of something tasty.
More treats to make the most of your stay here.
Mount Pleasant Lodge has the most amazing gardens for guests to enjoy, stretching out right in front of it.

The gardens are bordered with trees, and there are ancient woodlands on the doorstep too.
There are many tranquil and tucked-away private places for you to sit in the gardens.
Some friendly faces!

Mr Peckitt May 2021
2 week stay with a lot of wet weather but there was still a lot to do and see. Quite isolated but ideal for walks in the local forests (lots of routes and super views) and only 40/45 minute drive to a variety of different villages on the Devon coast - Lyme Regis, Seaton, Beer, Sidmouth, Exmouth and Dawlish. The location therefore gives a great deal of options as to how to spend the day. The owners Gill & Terry are on hand for any issues but never intrusive. The property is set in super grounds and there is an abundance of wildlife in the garden including various birds and even a fox wandering across the grass. The property is equipped to a high standard and the beds very comfortable. Newly refurbished bathroom. Tasty home made bread and lemon drizzle cake part of a nice welcome pack. Overall, an excellent cottage to hire and highly recommended. ...

Mount Pleasant is a lovely, well furnished property overlooking extensive & beautiful gardens. Owners were welcoming, but not intrusive, and went the extra mile to offer help and assistance in every way possible.
Mrs Goodman May 2021
Absolutely superb in every respect! This was a week long stay for our 33rd wedding anniversary and we could not have chosen better. The property is beautifully presented with every comfort you could ask for, and the grounds have to be seen to be believed, just gorgeous. Gill and Terry are truly lovely people who welcomed us warmly and were so friendly but not at all intrusive throughout. A real unexpected bonus for us was the fantastic walking available directly from the property, much appreciated by our Collie dog Jake, who was also made so welcome. Definitely at the top of a long list of properties we have visited....

Wonderful cottage in a great location. Owners are really helpful and friendly. We have no hesitation in recommending Mount Pleasant Lodge.
Mrs Day July 2021
Terry and Gillian were fantastic hosts, making us genuinely feel at home at their property. The home baked bread and cake were very well received by all in our party, and Terry and Gillian also helped us out with a few food essentials which we needed. Terry also kindly helped us out with some emergency car maintenance. The property is lovely, and spotlessly clean and has just about everything you might need for your stay. One small piece of advice to anyone considering booking Mount Pleasant is that the roads in the area leading to the property are very narrow (one car width) so expect to reverse into passing places when you meet an oncoming vehicle. Oh, and most importantly, take exit 28 Collumpton off the M5 - do not follow your satnav if it suggests otherwise. ...
