About this property

Finest Retreats | Court Cottage

Court Cottage is a recently renovated characterful cottage set in the heart of the Devonshire village of West Buckland. Pets are very welcome at the property and the cottage is well suited for dogs with its enclosed garden which looks out towards the village's church spire in one direction and the rolling countryside in the other.

Walking into the spacious hallway through the front door, the kitchen/diner leads off in one direction and the cosy living room in the other. The kitchen has all the appliances and amenities required to cook up a feast on your self-catering holiday including a Nespresso coffee machine, microwave, dishwasher, washing machine and large fridge/freezer.

Guests will love the spacious living room with its garden views, wide window seats and imposing inglenook fireplace. It has a working log burner which guests can enjoy the warmth from during the autumn and winter nights. Pets are well catered for too, with various dog baskets provided. The main TV has an Amazon Firestick for guests to use and there is also a DAB digital radio.

The three bedrooms and house bathroom can be found upstairs. All of them enjoy garden and countryside views and have been tastefully decorated and come with luxury white linens. The master bedroom enjoys a king-sized bed and has plenty of storage along with the benefit of a TV which guests can enjoy during lazy morning lie-ins.

The second bedroom can be arranged either as two singles or as a super-king sized double while the third bedroom is a small 4' double.

The house bathroom has a separate bath and power shower which makes it ideal for young families.

Court Cottage is perfectly situated for guests to enjoy both Devon's coast and its countryside. West Buckland is a pretty rural village with its own shop and part-time Post Office and is surrounded by rolling countryside. Exmoor National Park is only a stone's-throw to the North East while Devon's famous beaches are a short hop in the other direction. Saunton Sands is a dog-friendly sandy beach that welcomes pets 365 days of the year. Woolacombe beach, which is further round the coast, is also a wonderful stretch of coastline and ideal for walking on all year round and for sun-bathing in the summer.

There is free, on-street parking for 2 cars next to the entrance to the cottage. All bed linens are provided but guests are asked to bring their own towels.

The property is very pet-friendly with an unlimited number of dogs allowed but guests are respectfully asked not to allow them upstairs or to be left unattended at any time during the stay. There are 2 very large, 1 large and 1 medium dog crates provided. Please note we can only accept XL Bully dogs to stay if they have an Certificate of Exemption.

Beautiful cottage
Well equipped cottage in nice small village. Suited us well but may be a little too far from anywhere for some. Shared drive had its challenges occasionally meeting loose dogs but they were very friendly so no problem. The garden was great and safe for my dog. Beds were comfortable, bedding and towels really clean. Scones on arrival were very welcome. Would we stay there again? Definitely. Would be nice if we had known just what equipment was included like a hairdryer so we didn't carry extra stuff. Agent obviously didn't pass on requirements after asking us if we had any.
