Marley Cottage was a beautiful charming holiday home close to Totnes. Its incredibly peaceful, clean, finished to a very high standard. Wonderful little touches! Responsive hosts. The garden felt very safe for our young children, plenty of parking spaces and each bedroom (each uniquely finished) has its own bathroom! Views are stunning!

Certainly recommended and I would rebook without hesitation. Its not often that you find a 4 bedroom property with a bathroom for each bedroom, plus ample off road parking for a large group. The clean and fresh property was very well appointed and has a pub within walking distance. Close to the Devon Expressway with Beaches and Dartmoor in easy driving distance (be prepared for narrow roads!), Not far from Totnes which offers plenty of shopping, coffee shops and pasties.
