Lovely cottage in excellent location for visiting nearby places of interest. We made use of the very good butchers and fishmongers in the village and also recommend both friendly pubs and the Garden Shop for eating out. We tried them all ! Beer was our favourite place that we visited...

The property exceeded our expectations! It was spacious and had everything we needed. A great location to base ourselves to complete 4 days of hiking the Jurassic coast section of the SWCP. Contact with the owner Tanya was excellent and it was a pleasure to stay in the hosts holiday home. ...

This is an excellent property for a family holiday, there were six of us and a dog and yet we never felt a lack of space. Plenty of room for everyone to be comfortable. The cottage is clean, comfortable and equipped to a very high standard . The inner courtyard garden is especially useful when you have an escapologist dog like ours, we can have the French door open without worrying the dog has got out , yet again. There is parking for two cars on the driveway, this is very useful with children, especially when you have been to the beach. There are lots of things to do in the surrounding area , or just local walks with the dog. We enjoyed a really lovely holiday there. ...

A second visit to this fabulous property and beautiful area of East Devon did not disappoint. We were blessed with glorious weather - unexpected which was even more of a treat. New places of interest were Powderham Castle, near Exeter and Forde Abbey, near Axminster - fascinating and so welcoming. We also loved the local walks from the cottage which are very accessible. Thank you again Tanya and Mike for choosing to share you beautiful slice of Devon - so looking forward to our next visit. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a relaxing luxury break from home. ...

Colyton makes a good base for exploring this part of east Devon and west Dorset and there are more shops and places to eat than you normally expect in a village that size. The cottage is spacious and well-equipped and although we didn't need them there would be plenty of activities to occupy children on days when the weather keeps you indoors. The personal touches make the cottage more like a home than standard holiday accommodation. ...
