Lovely quiet cottage set in beautiful grounds with views.

Lovely little cottage, tucked away but close enough to visit the surrounding towns and beaches. Beautiful gardens and views from the cottage and so quiet. Felt at home in the cottage and had everything that we needed for our stay. Afternoon tea was a welcome surprise. Owners were welcoming and available should we have needed anything. Enjoyed the area, in particular Dartmouth where we were able to take a boat trip and a steam train along the coast. Enjoy walking so we were spoilt for choice with many good walking spots. Would definitely return if in the area again.

Perfect holiday

Greenswood cottage was just perfect. The location meant peace and quiet and the gardens are an absolute delight, where better to relax. Our hosts were friendly, attentive and only too ready to please. The cottage is comfortable with all the necessary requirements including milk and eggs when we arrived. We would certainly recommend Greenswood and look forward to having a holiday there again. Excellent.
