This is a gem of a cottage. Beautifully quiet, only birdsong to hear most of the time. From the patio we could hear the waves breaking on the beach when the sea was rough, which was unexpected but lovely. Some great walks starting from the cottage so didn't use our car for several days. Good take away food at 'Brittania on the Beach' at Beesands, with friendly service and lots of outside space to sit. Visited Overbecks, which is a gorgeous garden with great views over Salcombe and the estuary. Worth using the path through the fields for the last part of the walk to Beesands. Will book this one again....

A very cosy comfortable cottage in a truly rural location overlooking amazing gardens, offering peace and tranquility. We thoroughly enjoyed our week exploring this beautiful part of Devon and the wonderful coastal walks with our dog. Great to return and enjoy the garden each afternoon. The pub is walkable (40 mins)but down very narrow lanes and then you need to climb back up! The roads are not for the faint hearted as extremely narrow but worth it. The only negatives were the lack of a second sun lounger, seemed a bit strange to only have one. However we will definitely return as we loved the setting. ...

The location is beautiful and the beach at Beesands is remarkably quiet and well worth the walk. I think this is a perfect cottage for people who enjoy a good walk, you just need to be aware of the traffic as the lanes are very narrow. There are lots of lovely coastal walks that you can do and the scenery is breathtaking. The cottage is a very comfortable and pleasant place to return to after a day in the fresh air....

This is a lovely little cottage and very close to the beach. However the garden is on the small side for our dog who couldn’t really run about in it.

The cottage is situated in a stunning, idyllic place, with views of a beautiful garden (albeit of the neighbour’s) and cows coming down onto the pastures above. Unfortunately the house is a bit run down, and the garden too small.
