This is the scene that will greet you on arrival. Stunning!
Mount Pleasant Lodge is in a glorious setting with delightful, beautifully maintained gardens to enjoy.
The spacious kitchen/dining-room looks out over the gardens. The stairs in the corner lead to the living-room.
The extremely well-equipped kitchen is set at the far end of the dining-room. The utility-room is through the door to the right of the picture.
The main bedroom has plenty of space and a luxurious king-size bed.
This is the start of the Jurassic Coast at Sidmouth, a short drive from the other side of Honiton.
This is the view from the front of the Lodge - there are doors to the gardens from both the kitchen/dining-room and the living-room.
Cooking up a treat for friends and family is a pleasure in this lovely contemporary kitchen.
This really is just the place for an elegant dinner to celebrate your holiday.
Another view of the main bedroom.
You will be tempted to have a long lie in in this comfortable room.
The en suite wet-room is down a couple of steps from the main bedroom.
This is the other double bedroom, just as calming and comfortable as the master.
There is a door to the patio so you can lie in bed, and let the fresh morning air and the sound of birdsong in.
You will start each day relaxed and refreshed.
The newly refurbished bathroom is stunning.
A super spacious and modern bathroom awaits. Perfect for unwinding in after a full day of adventure.
The living-room has a choice of wonderfully comfortable reclining chairs, with a wood-burning stove for out-of-season evenings.
There is also a private sheltered area at the side of the Lodge. It is quite a suntrap. This area can be enclosed if you wish.
What a fabulous spot to enjoy a glass of something tasty.
More treats to make the most of your stay here.
Mount Pleasant Lodge has the most amazing gardens for guests to enjoy, stretching out right in front of it.
This is the pathway to the entrance for Mount Pleasant Lodge. Beautiful plants in pots, a little herb garden and the secluded patio around the far corner.
The pond and wildlife within are breathtaking.
An abundance of wildlife and activity can be enjoyed in this beautiful spot.
The fish are bursting with colour and activity.
A truly magical setting for a walk or a picnic on a sunny day, or even a wintery one!
Bursts of colour roam free throughout these beautiful gardens.
The gardens are bordered with trees, and there are ancient woodlands on the doorstep too.
There are many tranquil and tucked-away private places for you to sit in the gardens.
Some friendly faces!
Killerton House is the nearest National Trust property, with lovely gardens and the 800 acre Ashclyst Forest to explore.
Cadhay House near Ottery St Mary, close to Honiton, is an incredible privately owned historic house and gardens that are open to the public on bank holiday weekends.

This was our 4th visit to Mount Pleasant, so safe to say we love it! Gill and Terry are wonderful hosts, they make you feel very welcome. The cottage facilities are excellent for 4 adults, we have found other cottages say they are but fall short. There are lots of excellent places to visit- this year we managed to get to Coleton Fishacre, and did a Round Robin trip from Totnes- Paignton-Dartmouth and back to Totnes. The views from the River Dart were wonderful. What makes a good cottage holiday? Accommodation that is comfortable, facilities as good as home, warm and friendly helpful hosts. Mount Pleasant has it all!!...

The property exceeded our expectations - from the moment we arrived the hosts (who live in the adjoining property) were super friendly and welcoming, whilst also giving us the quiet and peaceful break that we had been looking forward to. The rooms were spacious and well furnished - with quality beds and bedding. The owners maintain beautiful gardens where you can enjoy the local bird-life, squirrels and (if you're lucky) deer. The owners provide a really good welcome pack - some home-made! One of the best holiday lets we have experienced for a long while. ...

A very clean and comfortable cottage. Exceptional hosts who live on the same site but who are not intrusive. Lots of homemade goodies left which was much appreciated. Fantastic that the cottage is also dog friendly. We wouldn’t hesitate to recommend if you are looking for a very quiet and tranquil place but do not expect shops or pubs to hand! ...

Had an absolutely lovely holiday at Mount Pleasant. The hosts, Gill and Terry, are lovely and extremely helpful. The lodge is well equipped and very comfortable and felt like a home from home for us. The grounds are beautiful and you could very easily spend your holiday just sitting and relaxing whilst watching the birds and wildlife come and go - it is so peaceful. It's a great base to explore Devon, Dorset and Somerset from. Beaches are just 40 minutes away. We highly recommend Mount Pleasant - and we plan to return again next year....

Another great stay at Mt Pleasant Lodge, Gill and Terry are great hosts, the Lodge is spotlessly clean and comfortable. Love the peace and quiet and lovely to see the deer and rabbits in the garden. Already booked our next visit!
