Crab Apple Cottage at Daisyland Farm - with a large enclosed garden and open views over the field to the woodland beyond.
The sitting-room has a wood-burning stove and deep comfy sofas to curl up on.
Two sets of doors open onto this wide paved terrace and the fully enclosed garden. The post and rail fencing also has rabbit proof wire and so is as secure as is reasonably possible.
The kitchen/dining-room is really spacious, with the front door opening to the farmstead.
The two and a half acre arboretum is the most beautiful and peaceful place to explore, sit with a book or have a picnic lunch.
Stairs lead from the sitting-room to the first floor of the cottage. There is also a door directly out onto the patio.
The kitchen is a delightful sociable space to cook in, with the farmhouse table in the other half of the room.
The sparkling worktop will inspire you to cook, but there is also a footpath through woodland directly to the friendly local pub.
Another view of the sitting-room. This is a sunny dual-aspect room but so cosy for a restful stay at any time of the year.
The gorgeous cottage in a fabulous setting.
The main bedroom has a king-size bed and its own en suite shower-room. High ceilings and a large window make this room lovely and light and airy.
You can sit in bed with your morning cup of tea and look out over the meadow. You are quite likely to see deer grazing in the evening or early in the morning.
The two bedrooms are at opposite ends of the corridor.
This is the en suite shower-room for the master bedroom. The wonderful shower has a rainfall shower head as well as a conventional one.
The second bedroom has views out over the 2.5 acre arboretum which is filled with unique tree species.
The bathroom next to the twin bedroom has a bath as well as a fitted shower.
The second bedroom set up as a super-king bed.
What a fabulous countryside setting these friendly neighbours have to roam and enjoy.
The garden is fenced to reassure parents with young children and guests who wish to bring their dog with them.
A perfect place to enjoy the sunshine, and get immersed in your favourite book.
The outside space is perfect for all the family.
Newly installed EV charger for extra convenience.
The very lovely Beer beach.
Lyme Regis beach is a great place for a day out.
Pay a visit to the peaceful Otter Estuary Nature Reserve.
Killerton House and Gardens are well worth a visit.

Crab Apple Cottage is a real gem. Beautiful location and near to so many local attractions. Lucy and Ian are fantastic hosts and very welcoming. Lovely places to eat nearby too.

Crab apple cottage was every bit as lovely as we remembered it from last year. Everything you could need for a relaxing holiday had been thought of by Lucy and Ian who are excellent hosts. Ourselves and our dogs had a wonderful week and will definitely be booking for next year....

This is a beautiful cottage in an ideal location to access lots of Devon. Furniture, bedding, etc all good quality. The owners Lucy and Ian are very friendly, helpful, their home made produce of chutneys, jams and cider were delicious. Would recommend this cottage to families and couples throughout the year....

This is our third visit to Crab Apple Cottage and we still enjoy it as much as our first visit. Lucy and Ian are great hosts and nothing is too much trouble. The cottage has everything you need for a very comfortable stay and a good location to get out and about. We have booked again for later in the year and again for next year....

Crab Apple cottage is a wonderful space to relax and unwind in the heart of East Devon. The cottage itself is cosy, beautifully furnished and very well equipped. It's within easy reach of the coast, Exeter and Dartmoor but there are many gems to visit closer to home too; magnificent hill forts at Blackbury Camp and Hembury, beautiful woodland at Blackborough and wonderful gardens and houses at NT properties Killerton, A la Ronde and Knightshayes. We also especially like the Donkey Sanctuary at Sidmouth and walking the coast path between there and Branscombe. Another favourite spot is Budleigh Salterton where the walk to the cafe at Otterton is full of wildlife and interest. The Drewe Arms at Broadhembury is excellent for food. Lucy and Ian are exceptional hosts at Crab Apple; they are on hand if needed but generally unobtrusive. The welcome pack is full of home produced, delicious treats. Last, but definitely not least, I need to mention the arboretum; literally on the doorstep, this is a magical place to listen to the dawn chorus, soak up the scent of the apple blossom and truly get away from it all, relax and recharge. We've visited four times now and already looking forward to our fifth stay next year! ...
