About this property

Pet Friendly, Tranquil, 2 Bedrooms

Orchard Cottage is a delightful, south-facing holiday cottage in Dittisham Court. It's perfect for a romantic stay or a small family holiday in this lovely riverside village. Enjoy the sunny, private patio with village views, and access to an orchard of Dittisham plum, flowering cherry, apple, and willow trees. The river and village amenities are all in walking distance. There's access to four acres of communal grounds and one allocated parking space right outside. Dogs are welcome, too.

Accommodation:

The entrance hall takes you to the open-plan living area with a sofa and armchairs, log-effect fire, TV, DVD, and CD player. French doors fill the room with light and lead out onto the private patio. The dining area seats four guests.

The shaker-style kitchen is very well equipped with an electric oven and hob, integrated dishwasher, fridge/freezer, washing machine and microwave. A serving hatch connects the two rooms. Also, on the ground floor off the entrance hall is a small cloakroom with a WC.

Upstairs there are two bedrooms - the light and airy master bedroom looks out over the orchard towards the village and a twin room at the front. It features a kingsize bed, a built-in wardrobe, and an en-suite shower room. The twin bedroom also has a built-in wardrobe. There is also a recently refurbished family bathroom featuring a bath with an electric overhead shower.

A travel cot and highchair are available on request.

There's central heating throughout.

The cottage benefits from a small enclosed patio immediately off the living room, complete with garden furniture. Perfect for sitting in the sun and enjoying the peace and quiet Dittisham provides. Steps down from the patio is access to the orchard and the wider communal grounds including large grassy areas with vantage points over Bow Creek and over towards The Quay. Guests are welcome to exercise dogs on the grounds however we ask they are kept on leads.

A lovely little find
It was our first time visiting Devon and we fell in love with Dittisham. Perfect for the dog and our baby. The village is amazingly quiet and peaceful. The cottage was exactly what we needed, a lovely space. Dart valley cottages went above and beyond for our needs and we felt very welcomed. The relaxing break we needed. The cottage is dated in places but was nice and clean throughout. We will definitely be considering staying here again in the future.

Wonderful stay in Dittisham
We had a lovely short break in Dittisham. The cottage was thoughtfully prepared and equipped with everything you might need. We had a comfortable stay and didn’t want for anything. It would be helpful to let guests know that the smoke alarms are sensitive to steam from the bathroom, so the bathroom door should be kept shut to avoid them being set off.

Great position.
Lovely setting. House very comfortable with lovely sunny patio. Recommend the short walk to the quay and taking the boat across to Greenway House. Dartmouth a short drive, but Park & Ride provides an excellent service and is great value for money.

Comfortable cottage
We were only staying a short while but really enjoyed this small but cosy and comfortable cottage. It is in a good position with lovely gardens. It’s warm and clean. The single beds are really meant for children not adults It was a nice bolt hole for our short stay in the village

Staying at Orchard Cottage
We had a great stay at Orchard Cottage. We loved the fact that you could walk from the patio into the orchard to walk the dog and to other places on foot from the property. The only other thing I would add is that it would be useful to have a booklet to know how to work the heating control. The one in the airing cupboard isn’t the one for the new digital control.
