Excellent cottage with a wonderful pool and great relaxing location. The roads leading to this cottage are narrow but it is worth the drive when you experience the beautiful countryside and John was really helpful with any questions we had.

A beautiful, quiet location and a lovely cottage with a very impressive swimming pool and hot tub looking over the orchard. The pool is a good size and has full changing facilities available. We had plenty of exclusive slots and one or two shared time slots which we made good use of. John (the new owner) was always on hand if required and provided Read morelots of information about the local area. Just be wary of the narrow lanes (hence the Good location rating) but if you use the one suggested by John or the road from Ipplepen (which we didn't find until later in the week) you will be absolutely fine. If you go ask John about it's famous previous resident! Hide
