Looking back to the cottage from the garden.
Such a lovely garden to relax in with the patio area at the end of the garden.
The cosy living-room area. The door leads to the garden.
The open plan living areas make this cottage a really great place for a family gathering.
The double bedroom, with its rather clever mattress which offers two comfort zones, medium and firm.
It's just a ten minute walk to the sea from the cottage.
The Old Post Office is the end of terrace cottage on the left of the picture with the garden above the village road.
As well as central heating, you have the log-effect gas fire to keep you cosy on those chillier evenings.
Looking out to your garden and the fields beyond.
The patio-area is a real sun-trap.
Dinner for two?
The cottage has some lovely features.
There's built-in storage for your holiday wardrobe.
The children will love the bunk-beds.
The family shower-room.
Enjoy a refreshing shower after a busy day exploring.
The pretty village of Holcombe. The cottage is on the left halfway up the hill.
Enjoy a day at nearby Dawlish Warren.
The traditional seaside town of Teignmouth is also nearby.
You can head across the estuary from Teignmouth to Shaldon.
The dramatic landscape that makes up Dartmoor is well-worth exploring. This is Haytor.
