The garden is idyllic with lots of visiting wild birds. There are two seating-areas and the summer-house to choose from.

There is an Aga for you to enjoy too!

Looking into the sitting-room from the French doors. Your parking is right outside the front of the cottage. The owner's farmhouse is seen to the left.
Another view of the twin bedroom. This room looks out into the original cobbled farmyard - the cottage makes up two sides of the courtyard and the farmhouse makes up another.
Four steep steps lead down to Bedroom 2, the utility-room is to the right of the photograph.
Stable Cottage faces onto the farm courtyard on this side, and the garden on the other. Parking is in front of the cottage and the owner's house to the right.
Children will love to see the chickens - you might even be treated to some fresh eggs!
The driveway up to Ford Farm often has grazing sheep either side of the little lane.
There are many lovely fishing villages and seaside towns along the east Devon Jurassic Coast. So much to explore and fabulous coastal path walks.
Walking along the east Devon Jurassic Coast offers one stunning view after another.
The Regency town of Sidmouth is well worth a visit. There is a wonderful long promenade, and the cliff top cafe and gardens in the picture are a treat at the end of your stroll.
This is a view of the Jurassic Coast from the coastal path above the fishing village of Beer, with Seaton in the distance.
Budleigh Salterton is a truly unspoilt little seaside town. This boat says it all.

Lovely rural location but in very easy reach of Honiton for shopping, and beaches in Devon and Dorset. (Lyme regis too busy in school holidays, but Charnmouth beach great for families with a river that children can play safely in, sand and rockpools. Safe for swimming. Plenty of parking, though take cash or download the parking app before you go as phone reception v poor). A garage selling basics 3 minute car journey away from cottage. Lovely eggs from Sarah's hens left for us, plus a bottle of wine in the fridge which was a lovely surprise. Lots of nice places to eat, we recommend The Tuckers arms (portions huge!) and The Little shop of Seasons in Hontion for a fabulous cream tea and possibly the best scones we have ever eaten. Very spacious house for 4 people, huge and very well equipped kitchen/diner. Also 3 toilets, both bedrooms ensuite. Comfy beds. Lovely view from house into garden, and we sat out most evenings....

This was a lucky find. Chosen simply because our week had to end on 24th June to dovetail with a trip to Peppa Pig world! (We live a long way North so East Devon was near!) We all liked the place very much. Two bathrooms, huge kitchen diner between bedrooms and sitting room. Summer house up the large garden, a hen run big enough for a builder to put up a pair of semis, sheep baaing, the train to and from Exeter rattling past at intervals, just lovely. We had "changeable"weather. Wind so strong you could hardly walk, then showers and sunny intervals set in, then finally the mother of all storms in Exeter. Our star visit was to Forde Abbey, free to Historic Houses members. Montacute (NT) was a disappointment, Beer was the place we went to twice, each time having a sandwich down at the beach cafes. Wish we were there now....

An excellent cottage in a great location. It is spacious, well appointed, and very easy to settle into. The extra touches by the generous hosts were greatly appreciated. We especially enjoyed the garden, with its open views. The bank of primroses was stunning, and the summerhouse is a great place for tea and a sit in the sun. We hope to become "regulars" here!...

Would not hesitate in recommending Stable Cottage. This cottage is of a very high standard and is very spacious. The cottage was immaculately clean, extremely well presented, and very comfortable. Stable cottage was very well equipped, the furniture and drapers/blinds were quality. Everything about Stable Coattge was of a very high standard. The location could not be better for travelling Devon south coast. Access to the large attached garden, the summer house and the views enhanced the high quality of this lovely cottage. ...
