Beautifully presented cottage in lovely quite location,
Mrs Smart September 2025
A beautiful little cottage in a small hamlet, well equipped and comfortable, but only a short drive (or walk) into the nearby village of Hartland for shops/pubs or to the coast at Hartland Quay. Highly recommend this property.

Lovely cwtchy cottage and in a great location to easily explore Devon and Cornwall. St Nectans church was a gem, so magnificent and a few metres walk away.

Vanstones is a very pretty cottage with a lovely back garden, fully enclosed and suitable for our Boxer dog. Perfect location, walkable distance to the coast with the fantastic views at Hartland Quay. The cottage did have some negative points as it wasn’t as clean as we would have expected, with us having to wipe around the kitchen and rinse the bath prior to use. Minor inconvenience on arrival but not ideal. The TV is listed as a smart TV however it’s very old and streaming apps can’t be updated and therefore did not work. Whilst may not be an issue for some, we do like to watch movies in the evening and the weather was awful one day so we ended up having to purchase a firestick as we didn’t come prepared with any books etc to occupy us. An indoor door mat could do with being provided because as the weather was wet, it meant that socks got very dirty and damp due to having to walk through the small entrance to get to the bathroom. Slippers are a must as stone floors downstairs were very cold and not clean. All above are fairly minor issues on their own but did add up to the feeling that it wasn’t quite up to scratch compared to other properties we have stayed in. It’s a shame as the cottage has so much potential. Overall, we enjoyed our stay but more due to the location more than the cottage itself. ...
