Quintessential English Cottage close to Dittisham Quay

Donore is a superb 200-year-old cottage in unspoilt Dittisham, with excellent views over the village towards the river Dart and the countryside beyond. It has a wealth of charm and character throughout and is decorated to an extremely high standard. The large, lawned, garden is planted with shrubbery and flowerbeds. A canopied and an open patio gives you a choice of spaces for you to relax and dine. There's parking for two cars, plus ideally located for the riverside and village amenities.

Accommodation:

The front door leads into the large but cosy open-plan living room. It's filled with character with a slate floor throughout, exposed beams, and whitewashed stone walls. The lounge area has three sofas and a TV. (The pictured log burner is for decoration only).

The dining area has a long table that comfortably seats seven. Off the living room is a separate cosy snug with river views, a TV and a DVD player.

A large spacious kitchen features a family-size table and chairs, dishwasher, microwave, fridge, separate freezer, induction hob, electric cooker, and a docking station.

A utility room houses the washing machine and tumble dryer. From there, a stable door leads to one of the patios and onto the garden. There's also a ground-floor WC.

There are two bedrooms - an en-suite double room, and a second superking-size room (which can be configured into two single beds upon request when booking)

The large family bathroom has a bath and a separate shower.

Upstairs on the second-floor, another large bedroom set into the eaves with three single beds and river views from the Velux windows.
