Description

The Garden Cottage in Saltdene is one of three cottages set in four and a half acres of meadow and woodland just a few steps away from a small bay called Newberry Beach, near Combe Martin. Sleeping 2 people and a dog, the cottage has a cosy open-plan living area with comfy seats and a well-equipped kitchen. This property is on different levels with steep stairs to upstairs area. A stone fireplace houses an electric effect woodburner and there is a dining table for two. Upstairs, the bedroom has a king-sized zip “n” link bed which has the option to create two singles on request and a lovely seating area near the window. Four steps lead up to a bathroom which has a free-standing roll top bath with a shower attachment. Outside, there is a coved decked patio area and a sloped garden. The meadow overlooks Combe Martin Bay and the village itself is just 300 metres from the cottage. The South West Coast Path runs right past the hamlet and the walks around this area boast stunning scenery. Combe Martin consists of one long street that is wedged into the valley and runs for roughly one and a half miles. At one end of Combe Martin you can be in the countryside a stone's throw from Exmoor, at the other end you could be sat on the beach staring out into the ocean. Sheltered from the elements, this sandy beach is very popular with families and locals. Most beaches in the UK can feel slightly detached from the village or town they are connected with, but not Combe Martin Beach. You can be sat on the beach, just a few yards away from the main high street, a unique experience, but that is not to say the beach will be a noisy, bustling environment.

Reviews

A very small, but well appointed cottage. The very friendly owners have maximised the space available to good effect, very well equipped. The position just above a dog friendly beach was lovely, as was finding, beer, a bottle of fizz and a gorgeous Lardy cake awaiting us in the cottage!

This property is perfectly located as our dog could enjoy the beach as we were 2min walk from the beach which allowed dogs. The property was well appointed and very traditionally footage. The cottage is beautifully decorated.

Great property in a perfect location. Hosts are fantastic.

Mr L,

Fantastic location, with beach views from the bedroom window. Really short walk to the beach front and high street. Really cosy property, very warm and fully equipped - had a vast assortment of items in the kitchen, one of the best self-catering accommodations we have ever stayed in. Hosts are extremely friendly and helpful - their dogs are really friendly too.

mrs R,

Just what we needed, relaxing break, walks from the door along the coastal path with our dog, then home to a cosy night in with a fabulous log burner. Everything you needed was on hand and a wonderful welcome cream tea and champagne was awaiting our arrival. Would love to return to explore more.

Mrs T,
