We had a lovely week at Glen Cottage. The cottage was really cosy and had everything you can want and the location is great, plenty of walks and a great bus service into Dartmouth and Kingsbridge - The bus stop is right outside the cottage. Sadly the pub in the village is only open a few days a week and doesn't do food in the winter / spring. There is a fish and chip van on Fridays and a pizza van on a Thursday- although the pizza van was being refurbished when we were there. ...

Character but yet modern with cozy feel property. Lovely location, away from hustle and bustle but near enough to get to it by car in 15 min. The sea is just, on walk, minutes away from Glen Cottage. The communal garden with direct access to it was a bonus. The best Easter meal ever, at the local Kings Arms community pub, (pre-book) with full sea views. The pizza from the pizza van was absolutely delicious. Lovely beaches at walking distance with fabulous cafes (pre-book), a bit pricey but worthy. Dartmouth and Kingswear is recommended, perfect for sightseeing, shopping and dining. ...
