The neighbourhood
The cottage is part of a luxury cottage estate in a small hamlet between the towns of Totnes and Dartmouth in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty known as the South Hams. There are footpaths in the grounds that lead into the surrounding countryside and to local pubs.
During your stay, you will have access to on-site leisure facilities that are shared by guests of all cottages.
Gorgeous grounds
Enjoy a gentle walk, a picnic or a jog in the 14 acres of beautiful estate grounds. There is plenty of interesting flora and fauna here, including the pretty bluebells that appear in late spring to wildlife such as hares, deer and buzzards.
Swimming pools and spa facilities
Take a dip in the indoor heated swimming pool, where there’s an adult only swim time each morning. Plus, there is a sauna, a steam room and chairs to relax on both inside by the pool and outside in the lounge area.
There is also a heated outdoor swimming pool that’s open daily (weather-permitting) from the end of May to mid-September. Once you’ve cooled off, unwind on the sun deck that is kitted out with loungers for chilling out and sunbathing. Next to the pool there is also a hot tub with superb views towards Dartmoor National Park in the distance.
In addition, nail services, beauty treatments and massage therapies, as well as personal training sessions can be pre-arranged. Please contact Guest Services for more information.
Children’s facilities
Indoors there is a soft-cushion playroom for little ones aged 5 years old and under. For outdoor fun, there are swings, an adventure playground and a toy shed full of buckets, spades, crabbing lines and body boards to take to the beach.
Other leisure facilities
Enjoy table football, tennis on the all-weather court (complimentary racquets and balls provided) or a game of boules.
Beyond the grounds
Just a short drive away you’ll discover some of Devon’s most stunning beaches such as Blackpool Sands (a 10-minute drive), as well as an unrivalled coastline and charming towns. Visit picturesque Dartmouth on the River Dart, Salcombe which is famous for its coastal views and fresh crab or go shopping in the historic market town of Totnes. You can also spend the day exploring the moorlands of Dartmoor National Park.
Getting around
A car is essential for travelling to the property and ease of getting around. If you are travelling by electric car, there are two charging points, but please bring your own cable and an upfront payment must be made prior to arrival.
