Old Forge Cottage is such a charming gem, tucked away in this walker's paradise.
Your private and secluded patio-area is the perfect spot to relax with a good book.
The master bedroom is home to this exceptionally inviting king-size bed.
Even the kitchen has a top of the range wood-burning stove.
What a lovely spot to retreat to after an action-packed day of adventure.
The comfortable sitting-room also has a wood-burner, which is perfect for those cosy nights in.
If dining al fresco isn't your thing, this dining-area is perfect for serving up a feast.
The kitchen/dining-room is such a lovely open plan area.
The sitting-room leads through to bedroom 1 and the ground floor shower-room.

Highly recommend, such a wonderful place and property. We had such a great stay, which despite being two weeks long our hosts were very accommodating/thoughtful throughout. Lots of lovely touches; the lemon drizzle cake on arrival being one. Enjoyed learning about the history of the property and the local area. Lovely place to stay and will definitely be coming back to stay again. Thank you. ...

We had a lovely week in Old Forge Cottage. The cottage is in a lovely, quiet location. The eggs and cake on arrival were lovely touches and we enjoyed them! We explored Devon and Cornwall and the cottage was in a good spot for both.

We had the most wonderful week at this property. If you are after total relaxation in an idyllic spot by a working water wheel and within a stones throw of a beautiful river and walks in all directions then this is the property for you. The property is very spacious and everything and more you could need has been provided. Two outdoor spaces at front and back so you can maximise the sunshine from morning to evening. A very cosy living room with comfy sofas and a woodburner. Ideally placed for adventures of all kinds, yet many walks from the door and a village with good village shop etc only a 10 minute walk along the river. The property is so full of character, it was like staying in a modernised, well maintained National Trust property with garden views to match! I highly recommend this property and it was thoroughly enjoyed by our family of three plus our cockerpoo who thought she was in heaven with daily river swims, long walks and trips to Dartmoor/ Plymouth in easy reach. A little slice of heaven in Devon! ...

A beautiful setting and great location giving access to moors and coast. We kept to the beaches on the western side, Bantham, Bigbury, Mothecombe and Wembury to avoid the bigger crowds and traffic. Lovely to walk to village along river, only 10-15 minutes. Locals do swim in the calm side of the river away from the rapids. Village store and deli, pub okay and the Station House Cafe/bar/ restaurant perfect. Plenty of walks for those who don't want to use a car , peaceful setting for lazing, but easy to access the A38 for days out. Upstairs beds comfortable, downstairs probably more suitable for children. 11 year old loved the mezzanine configuration. Having three bathrooms was wonderful for our group! ...
