This cottage and the garden are absolutely stunning. The owners are so helpful and excellent hosts. Greeted with wine, fresh bread and eggs. A lovely touch. The village is small but flowers everywhere and a recently done area with a beautiful mural and benches with flower pots, makes a very pleasant place to sit. Everyone we met from the Indian restaurant to the dairy and bakery shops and Golf club were so friendly and all within minutes of the cottage.Great place to stay to visit this part of Devon. Highly recommend it.

We had a very wet week which challenged us daily on expeditions. However, it was a joy to come back to The Coach House which was comfortable, very well equipped and had charming owners, Martin and Jane, who could not have been more welcoming and helpful. I rent normal between 2-3 cottages a year and this was one of the most comfortable.
