Fabulous cottage, beautiful location

Immaculate, well equipped cottage in a courtyard, surrounded by fragrant fields, yet only a mile from the beach, shop, pub, restaurant & cafe. It was fabulous to wake up to the beautiful view and delicate scent of wild flowers. We stayed with our dachshund & it was great to be able to use the extensive garden, field & pond area. Guy & his family are lovely and very helpful. The area was fairly quiet and unspoilt but there are endless places to visit within an hour's drive. The beaches at Downderry and Seaton are spacious and dog-friendly. We loved our stay & wish we had booked for longer.
