Excellent location, wonderful Host

Totnes is a beautiful historic town, with a wealth of unique shops on the high street. The home is in easy level access reach to the town centre and river. Our host for the accommodation was wonderful and accommodating to our needs. Happily use this home again.

Perfect location, lovely little place

Stayed here with my elderly mother for 2 weeks. Perfect base of operations for exploring this area of Devon. Just one street over from the shops for convenience but far enough away for the street to be quiet at night. Beware that the stairs to the bedroom are shallow and steep, so if you have any mobility needs this might be difficult for you. Luckily this was not an issue for us.

Outstanding location.

Really enjoyed our stay at the property in Totnes. Location great and place feels homely. Extremely well kitted out and cooking easy as a result with a few sundries in cupboard. Decor is a little tired and a few things needed replacing (blind string fell apart from what looks like a previous repair). However had a genuinely great time and would recommend.

Our stay in Totnes

Property very nice and convenient with all amenities needed. Close to centre of Totnes and bus stop (railway station a bit further). A bit of noise from the street in one of the bedrooms. Great travel suggestions by owner and nice walks in the area.

The property was very good equipped, very close to the city centre and also quiet - besides of the seagulls ;-) Host book very helpful for the usage of the equipments in the guesthouse. Totnes is a very good location to visit and the distances to the points of interests is also very good.

Enjoyable

Like Totnes, the feel of this cottage was a bit quirky owing to its French owner perhaps. Blissfully cool inside, top 20’s out, it had everything a holidaymaker required for a comfortable stay. It’s position to the town and river is great with the only downside being the lack of a parking space/ permit.

Excellent Totnes Location

A lovely two-story cottage, very close to all the amenities of Totnes. We were very comfortable. Well-equipped kitchen, which was important to us. The outdoor grill, mentioned in the property description, wasn’t available, unfortunately. Too bad, as it was great grilling weather for much of our stay.

Cute Little Cottage

A lovely, quaint old cottage, amply supplied with all you need for your stay. The area is great. Parking is difficult but can easily be solved by installing the parking app on your phone. You can then renew your parking at 8am from the cottage. Just a couple of points - there is no DVD player and check-in is at 2:30.

Parking

The property was really good. However the description gives the impression that the property has parking. It does not have parking, we had to park in a car park 10 mins walk away and wake up at 8 every morning to book parking for the day. If the property owner wants to claim the property has parking then he he should provide a parking permit.

Nice spot but It could be cleaner.

The house was where and what we needed for a place to stay for a family wedding, if a bit dated. The standard of cleaning could be better; Indoors was ok, the outside needs jetwashing and tidying up. There was a plastic bag on the doorstep that had clearly been there for some time & the steps were slippery and potentially dangerous. Overall the place needed to be cleaned with more attention to detail. The radio needs a decent aerial so that it doesn't 'hiss' all the time regardless of retuning.

Excellent location

We would recommend this cottage, plenty of room for 2 or 4 people, well equipped and very clean with a small courtyard, which s always a bonus in Totnes as outside space hard to find sometimes Ii is located very centrally in to the wonderful town of Totnes., with an abundance of bohemian independent shops and eateries and a good choice of pubs/restaurants. Would highly recommend the 'pie shop'! Or venture slightly further afield to Ashprington to a very friendly Durant Arms or Tuckenhay to The Warermans Arms on the river. Plenty to do in Totnes. Would highly recommend the walk along the Dart Trail to Dartmouth (or you could break it up and get dart ferry part way there/back if 14 miles is a bit much). Beaches within 20-30 mins drive - blackpool sands and bantham beach worth a visit too. Would definitely return to this cottage. Thank you

Nice base for Totnes and Dartmouth area

Nice base for the area. Cottage is clean and has everything you need for a week away. No issues with the host. Loads of clean towels, good kitchen and dish washer and clothes washer if you need them. Only a few minutes walk to the high street for all the shops and bars. Would return again. If you are worried about parking as some reviews have said download the RingGo app and leave your car at the long marsh car park. The app sends you reminders to top up. It’s £4:20 a day as it’s free 18:00 to 08:00. The local buses are great. £5:00 day rover ticket and you will be able to see the whole area. Parking is an issue all over Devon but it is easy to get about without a car.

Great location

This was a characterful cottage in an ideal location in the centre of town. Mostly the fittings etc were fine but some annoying missing items incl mop for kitchen floor, extracor in bathroom and details for recycling rubbish. The biggest drawback was parking - limited parking outside property and all 24 hour parking a walkaway at a daily charge.
