I booked this in January and it was to have been only two of us my son and wife and young child overlapped for a few days. We managed to make this work despite the older two of us sleeping in the small children's room. We all had a very enjoyable holiday at the end of June. The high point was individual use of the small indoor pool via a sign up sheet. We went every day to exercise. The walled garden was very useful for exercise with play facilities for young children in a safe environment. Designated parking bay right by the cottage was also useful. ...

All in all it was lovely to stay in such a relaxing and quiet place, we thoroughly enjoyed our week at Jay's Cottage. Lots of great places to visit each day, we want to do it all again!

We had a fabulous stay! The children loved the swimming pools, the beds are super comfy, the house was absolutely spotless and really lovely. We loved having a combi boiler which meant hot water for the random shower times after the beach or pool. The Colmer Estate is really beautiful and we all loved exploring. For your first night we can recommend getting a COOK meal from the Spar at the BP garage. We loved Mothecombe, Bantham and Bigbury beaches - Make sure you head to Burgh Island to sample the Pilchard Inn, we had a lovely meal there. Burrator Resevoir is a stunning part of Dartmoor as is Lydford Gorge (we can recommend the Castle Inn). We popped to see family in Looe and have a day in Cornwall and it was the perfect base to explore this area of Devon and Dartmoor. The children are already asking when we can return! ...

A very comfortable cottage in a nice setting which lived up to its description and our expectations.
Dr Cummings August 2020
We had such a brilliant stay in this lovely little cottage -it's compact but perfect for what we needed. Facilities within the estate were an amazing bonus. Would love to come back when indoor pool open and we can make use of the table tennis table (only closed due to covid restrictions). The housekeeper was really helpful when we had a couple of queries. California Inn pub up the road was fantastic - proper delicious pub grub and service lovely. The cottage is well positioned to be close to lovely beaches (about 25 mins drive to most) but also good driving distance to other activities if you have children: clip and climb centre, Exeter; ibounce trampolining, Newton Abbott; River Dart Country Park. So we weren't beaten by the very changeable British weather! We DEFINITELY want to come back. A holiday of happy memories....
