Luxury Cottage in exceptional private grounds with private gym, table tennis
SPECIAL OFFER FROM 20th AUGUST FOR 5 or 6 nights £225 per NIGHT FROM £275
Poppy’s Cottage is a detached property set in the grounds of a large country house. Located down it’s own private lane and tucked away, this is a quiet, beautiful, hidden away escape, yet is within 15 mins drive of the centre of Exeter - Devon’s capitol city.
For a really good sense of the cottage inside and out, do watch the video
The well equipped cottage provides amongst its many comforts: underfloor heating, a woodburner, Egyptian cotton bed linen, Range cooker, fast WiFi, two smart TV’s (one in the twin room) for streaming Netflix etc. and access to wonderful walks from the front door. You will be welcome to enjoy some of the main house’s incredible gardens which in turn access public footpaths which lead into seven square miles of forests.
There is a fully enclosed private garden for your young children or four legged friend, along with a covered barn with table tennis and BBQ and outdoor tables and sun loungers. There is also a gym.
Accommodation includes One Master with En suite shower room. Two further bedrooms, one twin and and with king size bed, all good sizes. There is also a substantial marble tiled family bathroom upstairs with double ended bath and separate luxury power shower. There is an additional bathroom downstairs so three in total.
A wood burning stove with logs in the sitting room, a full kitchen with island and bar stools, separate dining room with underfloor heating, separate snug with desk area, and downstairs bathroom.
There is an attached video which best shows all aspects of the cottage
Poppy’s Cottage is newly renovated throughout and provides a warm welcoming space to relax in. We are delighted our guests so far have been so lovely about their stays and glad to see some returning. The house does offer a unique, secluded setting to unwind as a family, with total privacy and only the sounds of nature, along with access to the most stunning gardens. You are welcome to explore an additional 12 acres of our gardens and grounds with some unique plants and stunning floral displays.
We know all the local farm shops, supplying meat, fish, vegetables, takeaway foods (even locally made Middle Eastern meals which are our favourite) local game pies and even seafood, all delivered to the door. Waitrose and Tescos, Sainsbury's all deliver here. This is a cottage to enjoy long walks, sun bathing if the weather allows, games, films, table tennis, wonderful meals, bird watching and even badger and deer spotting. If you are very energetic then there is a private gym in which to escape though I can't image why anyone would do this!!

Frequently asked questions
About the host
Hosted by Nikki Chambers

I have been living in Devon since 1998. We fell in love with our house and embarked on a huge renovation program of both the main house and the cottage, both of which needed pretty much everything doing. Seeing the finished results has made it all worth while and we look forward to welcoming guests to the beautiful house and grounds
Why they chose this property
Close to the sea (pop on local train 10 mins drive away with free car park) and have one of the most scenic train journeys along the coast to the beach, or discover wild Dartmoor, historic Exeter, the North Coast The Tarka Trail or simply stay put in beautiful surroundings doing little more than enjoying the peace and gardens...Poppy’s Cottage is a wonderful central location to see and do so much
What makes this property unique
Poppy’s Cottage is set in amazing grounds and one of the most amazing gardens in the country. Its is totally removed from the noise of cars and surrounded by woods, gardens and wildlife. However Exeter is under 15 mins away and therefore great for eating out or going slightly further afield to the sea (catch the local train) or Dartmoor
