Orchard View
Description
In a peaceful spot in Kellaton is this private detached bungalow.
With its secluded setting and smart, light interior, this is a relaxing retreat for families or anyone seeking a tonic from a frenetic lifestyle.
Head down a few steps to the front door into your hall for discarding shoes and coats.
The sitting room is a charming, uncluttered space where you can watch TV beside the wood burner or sit quietly and gaze across lovely countryside views and spot birds and wildlife.
The property comfortably sleeps up to 4 adults and 2 children.
In the lounge, guests can relax on a three-seater sofa and two armchairs, with an additional bean bag providing a flexible seating option, particularly for younger guests.
The kitchen is neat and well equipped for preparing meals to enjoy in the dining room down a step.
The three bedrooms are simple and comfortable for enjoying a good nights sleep.
All around the bungalow you can stretch out, run and share barbecues on the lawn in the enclosed garden, and the children will have fun playing table tennis in the outhouse.
When you feel like exploring further afield, the beautiful sandy beach at Lannacombe is within walking distance and from there you can pick up the South West Coast Path for fabulous walking with cliff top views and a visit to the lighthouse at Start Point and the excellent pub and fish and chips café at Beesands village.
For more of a lively buzz, take the ferry from East Portlemouth to fashionable Salcombe to wander the tempting boutique shops and galleries and eat out at restaurants.
Kingsbridge is another interesting little town which also has a good choice of shops and restaurants, as well as boat trips.
And if activities are your thing, this is an excellent area for sailing, kayaking or paddleboarding around the lovely coast and estuaries.
With plenty of comfort and beautiful scenery, Orchard View is a smashing holiday home.

What guests are saying
We had a lovely week at Orchard View.
The cottage is clean, comfortable and very well equipped, in a lovely quiet spot. The facilities are excellent - comfortable bed and a great shower! Would definitely recommend..
Great week spent here in South Devon, Orchard View cottage has been everything we had hoped, spacious, comfortable and well equipped, from the kitchen to the bathroom.
.. everything was as expected, the description is very good. Good open landscape views from the living room and patio, the birds are abundant and frequently visited the garden, children loved the garden which is fairly large and usable, gated drive has parking space for two cars and, nights are so quiet and peaceful there which is a welcome change to the norm... No light pollution so on a cloud free night outside look UP! Nicely located between the towns of Kingsbridge, Salcombe and Dartmouth - Totnes not too far away either. Nearest beach is Lanscombe which is walkable, was lovely, sheltered and clean - both beaches of Mattiscombe sands and Torcross are but a short drive away. Walked the trail path from the cottage to Lanscombe, round to Start Point and the Lighthouse then back... Walk is stunning, with Seals, Raptors and birds of many kinds seen along the way. Oh, it's expected but still, be prepared for the narrow roads - no joke! Big thanks to the owners, it's been a great visit to South Devon and the cottage was a big part of it... it's been one to remember!
Our 2nd stay in this lovely cottage, a real home from home, so comfortable, cozy, great views, and so very peaceful.
Could hear a pin drop at night, plus a lovely starry dark sky. We totally relaxed after a stressful few months, enjoyed visiting Blackpool sands, Torcross, Dartmouth, Brixham, we are already looking to rebook for next year. The only change we would suggest is a new front door, but we didn’t want to leave, thankyou to the owners for the use of their wonderful cottage for a blissful week.

Property notes
Note: Towels are not provided at this property
Note: This property sleeps a maximum of 4 adults + 2 children
Note: Devon has more roads than any other county in the UK, and
as many of you have no doubt experienced, the majority of
its characterful byways amount to not much more than narrow,
winding backcountry lanes banked by thick hedgerows and with
a distinct absence of anything resembling road markings,
such are the joys of Devon lane driving!
Note:There are four steps down from the driveway to the garden path, which leads to the property.
Note: Easter Holidays to the end of the October half term break full week bookings only
