The cottage was nicely presented, clean and tidy. The living space was quite small but exactly as described and expected; the bedrooms are both good sizes. The cottage is well equipped but the selling point was the swimming pool, which we used every morning. (There are other leisure activities, which we didn't use only because the weather was so lovely we were out all day). The owner sent excellent directions, which you need as it is 'off the beaten track', and other instructions and everything was very well organised in the cottage. The location is picturesque but you do need to drive some narrow lanes before you start to get anywhere; however lots of lovely places are within easy reach. The owner had recommend a river trip to Dartmouth and that was the highlight amongst our varied travels. We ate in every evening in part because the cottage was comfortable and cooking facilities food but also because we didn't fancy the drive anywhere in the evening. It appears as with all HomeAway cottages there is a very limited hamper on arrival, which is OK except some milk and bread would be nice, if nothing else, because the first thing we want on arrival is a cup of tea! We always check what we can expect but when other cottage providers provide a wide range of local produce this omission always looks a bit mean and could catch other less organised travellers out.
