“We had a very warm welcome at Withymore cottage, with fresh flowers, fruit bowl and wine, milk and apple juice in the fridge.”

The cottage was very comfortable and clean and well arranged. We had everything we needed for a really lovely stay, including a very nice garden for Henry, the dog. Thank you.

- Mr Mills, August 2019
“Lovely cottage, very peaceful.”

Had everything we could wish for. Lovely welcome touches such as fruit bowl and milk and wine in the fridge.

- Mr Horton, August 2019
“Withymore Cottage is a lovely and well equipped cottage.”

The welcome pack was great, especially the fruit bowl. Thank you for a wonderful holiday

- Mrs Woodhouse, August 2019
“This is a wonderful cottage.”

A quiet but easily accessible location. Supermarket and two pubs not far away.Short drive to two good beaches and not far to Salcombe where there is a park and ride down to a little ferry across the estuary to other beautiful beaches. Jo had clearly thought of everything in the cottage.It is so well equipped. Bedding etc were pristine. We were greeted with wine, fruit juice, milk, tea, coffee, a bowl of fruit and fresh cut flowers.... just lovely. The patio is ideal for al fresco dining with lovely pots of flowers and there is a large enclosed lawn for play. What more could one want from a holiday cottage? Sunshine ? We got that too ! Many thanks

We have been to this cottage before ,the facilities are exceptional, and if we holiday in the area again we would want to stay there

- Mr Beverley, July 2019
“Our third family stay in this gem of a holiday home and hopefully not the last.”

A real home from home in a wonderful quiet spot, (remember it’s a farm, so expect the odd early morning wake up call from the cows) but only a 5 minute drive from the lovely Hope Cove and beaches, or just 10 minutes from more lively Salcombe. Great hosts and everything you might need in this extremely well equipped cottage.

- Mrs Hayman, July 2019
“This is our second stay at Withymore Cottage, the first was in May 2018.”

We are delighted to say that all our comments and feedback from last year are still valid, and we continue to find that this property suits all our requirements for a very quiet holiday base, but is close enough to easily access places of interest. Jo and Graham provide an excellent welcome pack. If time and circumstances allow, we will definitely be back.

- Mr Lawrence, May 2019
“Withymore Cottage was, without doubt, one of the best places we have rented.”

When we again visit South Devon this is one place we would be pleased to stay once more.

- Mr Norman, May 2019
“Withymore cottage was a delight in every way.”

Cosy and very comfortable. The garden was a haven for birds. Well placed for exploring the nearby Devon towns and walking the coast paths. Owners very welcoming.

- Mrs Gill, March 2019
“A lovely, immaculately clean cottage in a beautiful location.”

Everything we could possibly need had been provided and the beds were so comfy! We had a problem with the heating and hot water but as soon as we reported it to the owners they were on the case and it was fixed the same day. We had a wonderful week and would definitely book again.

- Mrs Jones, March 2019
“The owners went the extra mile in making our stay so comfortable.”

Apart from the fact that the cottage is extremely well appointed, we were made to feel very welcome with fresh flowers, a bowl of fruit and wine ready cooled in the fridge. A lovely convenient location on the edge of Malborough and not far from Salcombe.

- Mrs Dancy-Phillips, March 2019
“Lovely cottage, well equipped and perfect location.”

Liked the pint of milk, fresh fruit and bottle of wine that was there for when we arrived.

- Mr Holness, February 2019
“The owners were extremely friendly and helpful.”

We had a really lovely stay and would recommend this lovely cottage to anyone who wants a clean, well equipped, sunny and comfortable cottage in a quiet and peaceful location.

- Mr Hamilton, October 2018
“ALL GOOD THANK YOU”

- Mr Freeman, September 2018
“Very comfortable cottage and well worth a visit for anybody looking for either a family holiday or restful break off the beaten track but within realistic distance of shops, villages and places to visit.”

- Mr Bates, September 2018
“Our second visit to Withymore Cottage and hopefully not our last.”

Everything you could wish for in a peaceful, very well equipped, beautiful cottage. Great spot and lovely hosts.

- Mrs Hayman, August 2018
“Beautiful cottage in a great location, home from home.”

... would definitely go back.

- Mr Clarke, July 2018
“We have just got back from a week at Withymore cottage, a beautiful cottage and well located for beaches and Salcombe.”

Very clean and tidy and all that you could need from a holiday cottage. The owners are lovely and very helpful if you need anything. I would strongly recommend this cottage we had a great time.

- Mrs Ord, June 2018
“Over the years, we have stayed at many holiday cottages in various parts of the country, but Withymore Cottage has to be among the best.”

Situated down a long private lane close to the farmhouse on a working beef farm, it is a haven of peace and quiet (except for the numerous birds, including one particularly friendly robin!) The property is decorated, furnished and equipped throughout to an extremely high standard. The general living/kitchen area is particularly light and roomy, and connects well with the sunny patio and garden (south facing) by large French windows. The garden is fully enclosed, so is good for keeping an eye on children and/or dogs playing. A superb welcome pack awaits visitors, together with a warm welcome from the owners Jo and Graham Hocking. We had a fabulous week's break there, with easy access to many of the area's prime locations eg Salcombe, Dartmouth, Brixham etc, and the numerous cliff walks and coves that can be explored closeby. This property and its location are thoroughly recommended, and we aim to return there very soon!!

Owners made us feel very welcome

The property

½ mile from the pubs in Malborough, quietly tucked into a sunny dip in lush landscape, a renovated cottage facing over its patio (table/chairs, barbecue) with a few shallow steps up to a large raised enclosed lawned garden.

It is semi-detached to swallow-occupied, unused barns and adjacent to the main farmhouse (170 acre farm, beef/sheep) and its flower-filled gardens, with orchard and meadows beyond.

A tranquil retreat after a day on the beach, or just to sit and enjoy with a book and cuppa.From the patio, glazed double doors to open-plan living/dining/kitchen (dishwasher, washer-drier, microwave, fridge-freezer, electric cooker) with TV/DVD, Bluetooth radio and woodburner; ground-floor double bedroom (5' bed) and shower-room (suite).

Steep stairs (stairgates) up to two more bedrooms (washbasins) - a double (5' bed) with pretty garden view, and step up to a twin (zip-linkable to 6' double); bathroom (suite, shower over bath).

A brilliant star-gazing place. Malborough: village (church, pub, PO/shop) with many pretty thatched cottages dating back to when it was ‘an eminent settlement with a small port at Salcombe' (1½ miles), Bigbury Bay and Hope Cove (pub, PO/shop), 2 miles.

Kingsbridge, 4 miles.
