Listed Cottage for 2+Rain Shower+Free Parking+Dog Friendly+Near Kingsbridge Quay
End of terrace Victorian cottage, outside recently rewilded and just a few minutes level walk to the Quay, the bustling hub of the town, this cosy cottage offers everything you need to enjoy the ideal stay.
The living room is the perfect place to unwind after a day of exploring with comfortable arm chair, sofa and a wall mounted 40 " flat screen TV.
A chilly evening? then fire up the wood burner or pop across the road to the friendly Seven Stars pub or visit Restaurant Twenty Seven by Jamie Rogers.
The cottage has a fully equipped kitchen, don’t want to cook, then you can visit a range of restaurants/pubs within walking distance.
Upstairs, the bedroom has a brass antique style double bed with Vi-Sprung mattress and Brinkhaus pillows and duvet.
Modern hi spec bathroom with walk in power shower recently installed
Gas central heating throughout.
100 Mbps fibre wifi
Designated free off road parking space 150 meters.
This area of south Devon is loved for its rugged cliffs, sandy coves, peaceful countryside, pretty villages, rolling hills, secretive estuaries and dark night skies.
With its unusual geography, the Salcombe-Kingsbridge estuary is a wonderfully rich haven for wildlife and people alike; from teeming rockpools to seagrass jungles, seahorses and dolphins to the odd basking shark. The bus station is a few minutes walk giving easy access to Salcombe, Dartmouth, Plymouth and Totnes.The Salcombe ferry is close by.

About the host
Hosted by Mike Miller
I moved to Kingsbridge, south Devon from Buckinghamshire, retiring early, twenty years ago.
I have always loved the countryside and its wildlife and am enjoying living in this beautiful part of England.

Why they chose this property
The row of cottages were built around 1840 and lived in by brewery and mill workers at the time.
In the 1960s and 70s the cottages were scheduled for demolition, but fortunately saved and now Grade II listed, as can be seen by the original wooden sash windows with the old wonkey glass.
As a consequence, any changes have been done in a sympathetic manner, but at the same time making it a warm, welcoming place to stay.
