About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

We invite you to share the soothing natural energy of our unique and beautiful valley, to relax and revitalise in the heart of mother nature, away from traffic and the white noise of TVs and mobiles for a beautiful, stress-free rural retreat and to experience holidays like they really used to be – away from it all. In a typical steep-sided Devon coastal valley that’s virtually untouched by the modern world (a watermill has been here since medieval times though this one was built in 1754).

There’s a whole valley to explore, great for free-range kids – woods, orchard, meadows, & the Gara Brook for paddling, damming, or for pooh sticks or home-made rafts & pirate ships. Freedom to play with imagination away from TV and mobiles. There’s no light pollution so the star-gazing is heavenly.

It’s doggy heaven – plenty of walks from your cottage door & almost no traffic, only the postman passing through. Green lane walks from your cottage door and plenty of dog-friendly cafes, pubs, shops and restaurants locally. Dogs are £25 per dog per stay. Please keep dogs under close control around the cottage grounds as we have free-range poultry and there is livestock in the area.

During your stay at this cottage, you'll be close to Strete Gate Beach. The cottage offers free WiFi and a kitchen.
