Rose Cottage in Holcombe

This is a beautiful cottage set in a quiet location.

The nearest beach is just a 15 minute walk all or you can drive into Teignmouth or Dawlish in a few minutes. Th cottage has everything you could possibly get need for a comfortable and relaxing stay. Throughly recommended

We loved our stay in this beautiful cottage and would definitely return.

Extremely comfortable and quirky throughout with everything you could possibly want. The only negative is the fact that the bathroom is downstairs and I unfortunately have to get up each and every night to go to the loo being a women of a certain age!

Fantastic place with great views and a beautiful church next door with very friendly people and a lovely service.

Rose cottage is a beautiful 400year old building, you can park out side the cottage on a very steep hill so can be a pain to manoeuvre your car as the road is quite narrow.

There is a lovely pub at the top of the hill called the castle inn which was very friendly with good food. There is a dog friendly beach in Holcombe, which is a 5 minute drive. Overall a good holiday

Beautiful cottage.

Very comfortable. Idyllic setting. Would highly recommend.

Rose Cottage met all our expectations and more.

A well appointed, gorgeous cottage with everything you need. Being able to walk to either Dawlish or Teignmouth, directly from the house was a real plus despite the steep bits.

Lovely quaint cottage, quiet area also warm and cosy, our dog loved the garden would definitely recommend

Cosy and comfortable cottage.

Addition of a microwave would be good, but otherwise there was everything we could need. A car is needed for the less mobile as it is in the middle of a steep hill. Garden is smallish but very secluded and safe for my dog. The stairs are steep and a handrail the other side as well would be welcome.

A cottage with so much charm and character.

Beautifully appointed and well-eqipped. We felt at home immediately and enjoyed waking up to the view of fields of sheep in the distance. Thank you for a special stay.

Fantastic cottage Really quite and peacefull Everything you could want Lovely touch of scones and jam Bit dodgy parking on a steep hill but that minor Only downside was a joining cottage not sure if local or holiday maker but smoking weed constantly in garden was awfull smell Other than that was lovely stay in Beautifull area

Excellent will be booking again

Great location.

Cute little cottage

Lovely cottage in a great location.

Only issues were that the hob is small and difficult to use. Also only one very worn frying pan.

Very clean and amazingly comfortable beds with quality bedding and towels.

Loved the fire and aga. Also the coffee machine!! Although pur stay was for sad reason, the cottage gave us a good base and restful to come back to. We would definitely recommend and would like to rebook another time. Thankyou for having us

This was such a gorgeous, cosy cottage.

Absolutely everything we needed for a relaxing week away. Hamish was so helpful. There was a gift basket of goodies on our arrival which was so welcome. I will be telling all my friends about this hidden gem

Lovely cottage in a good location with very comfortable beds!

! Could do with supplying dog bowls though as is dog friendly accommodation.

Really loved our stay in this cottage last year.

I come to Holcombe every year for the past 8 years or so. Unfortunately this year as soon as we opened the front door it stank of dogs in every room. We kept getting door hairs in and on our bed. We wouldn’t even sit in the snug. I went out and bought cleaning items to try and make it better. But the smell is on the rugs, carpets and furniture. If we weren’t in bed or sat at the kitchen table we went out. The love heart wooden board chopping board smelled awful as though it had been used to feed dogs off it. I put it outside as didn’t want charging for binning it. It’s certainly put me off from coming again as even after cleaning things and spraying etc the smell is still very strong. The whole place needs a deep clean as the cleaners can only do so much with the time that they are given

Rose cottage, was all we hoped it would be.

we had breakfast on the patio every morning.,lovely sunny garden.Beach ten minutes walk ,dog went swimming and had a lovely time,we did go for a paddle , not as brave as our dog .Nice walk to Teinmouth along beach,and to Dawlish .lots of nice places to visit .

Lovely homely cottage has everything you need for a perfect break.

Beautiful garden catches the morning sun so lovely to sit out with a coffee.Very clean and well maintained.Very dog friendly,close to great walks along the beach to Teignmouth.Highly recommended perfect break.

We had a wonderful week at Rose Cottage.

As soon as you walk in you can feel the warmth and love that has gone into it. Everything has been thought about in detail. Every cooking item & utensil is provided (and a lovely welcome pack of goodies), the shower is powerful, the sofas and bed (we only used one) are really comfortable, the TV is a good size, the electricity sockets are plentiful (a rarity!), the garden is lovely and secure, the area is peaceful and the locals we spoke to were very friendly. I saw a couple of comments about the stairs being steep but we have stayed in a lot of cottages and most of them have staircases as steep or steeper than this one. All in all, we would have been very happy to move in permanently ☺️

Generally an excellent cottage in great location As advertised the stairs are very steep which would be a problem for the elderly or infirm Lack of proper curtains in bedroom 2 could be an issue for light sleepers in the summer Back door sticking is a real problem and has been reported by other visitors Very difficult to turn the central heating down as it seems to override after a short while and there were very few instructions

The cottage was excellent.

Really cosy and a short walk from the village pub. The cottage has everything you would need and the beds were very comfortable. The rear garden is enclosed which means you can safely let your dog out for morning/evening pee and was a great sun trap. Central heating was great as was the bathroom. The only minor points are the bathroom is downstairs and the stairs are a little steep but nothing too complain about We loved the scones as a welcome and will be staying again

We enjoyed our stay at Rose Cottage.

The cottage is cold for this time of year and needs heating in kitchen area, we lit the fire to boost heat. The heating instructions need explaining better. The village Pub has a warm local feel about it and very welcoming, and the food was very good as well.

Beautiful little cottage.

However, problems with the front and back doors which were difficult to open, close and lock. Also central heating was an issue and found it hard to keep warm as it kept switching off. No information at all about waste disposal and recycling. The stairs really steep and I scraped the skin off my leg when it touched the stairs mats.. But we are in our eighties and younger people will probably manage better than us. Lovely location.

Charming, snug, warm, characterful, well equipped and remarkably quiet little cottage with the only slight drawback for me (elderly back problems) being low overheads and a steep narrow staircase.

The most welcoming little village offers the Castle Inn just 2 mins walk away and serves excellent meals; there is also a fine little church right next door. Just 5 mins drive gives you the choice between Teignmouth or Dawlish sea fronts. An excellent stay and good value.

Very comfortable cottage, everything you need is there, cosy lounge with wood burner.

Nice comfy bed. The area is quiet and pretty, a short stroll up the road to the castle Inn, very nice but do not allow dogs in, which is a shame. A small church next to the cottage is sweet and could hear the congregation singing on Sunday morning. All in all a very nice time was spent at this lovely cottage.

This is a beautiful cottage.

Very clean and well kept. Everything you need and all the rooms are lovely. Would recommend

Super cottage and garden.

Everything inside was top of the range.

Lovely 17th century cottage in beautiful surrounding and less than 10 mins from Dawlish or Teignmouth .

The only problem we had was a 5 Deg downward slope on the treads of the staircase which we found to be quite unsafe . Otherwise a wonderful place to stay .

Beautiful place to stay and would highly recommend as within 7 minutes from Dawlish & Teignmouth 10 minutes from Shaldon with plenty of food and shop options, local pub from the cottage within 5 minute walk called Castle Inn extremely friendly great food and staff who also allow you park in their car park on request

Most holidays I’m ready to come home after 2 days, this was my first holiday I can remember I felt completely comfortable.

I felt the area in general was a little uninspiring, but the accommodation made up for that.

Our recent stay at Rose cottage was just lovely.

It is perfectly located, being on the outskirts of Dawlish and Teignmouth, allowing peace and quiet after some busy days. I would certainly recommend Rose cottage, and look forward to staying there again in the future. King regards Jeff Yates.

A quirky thatch cottage in a tranquil village, perfectly situated on the South Devon Riviera.

We had a superb week of bright winter weather in early February, but were cosy at night due to the logburner in the lounge. Kitchen was not particularly ergonomic, and a bit draughty, but you have to expect that in a property of this age. Best was very comfortable. Can recommend Rose Cottage.

Perfect cosy winter stay cottage.

Very good location close to both Dawlish and Teignmouth. Just a short walk to Holcombe cove beach. Cottage very well equipped, clean and comfortable. Looking to book for next winter.

The cottage was brilliant, only niggle would be that a separate countertop microwave would have been appreciated handy for heating things up quickly while oven in use

If you want your chocolate box, Devon thatched cottage then this is it.

It was lovely, cosy, comfortable and well equipped. Everything we needed was there. In fact some things we took weren't needed as they had been provided. Loved the set up and it was certainly big enough for 3 people and a large dog. Would thoroughly recommend,

What a gem of a cottage, everything you would need for a fantastic holiday.

Ideally situated, and everything advertised was there, and more, cottage very clean and tidy throughout, with delightful touches in all of the rooms. 3

Lovely, clean, well equipped, pretty cottage within easy access to nearby towns and villages.

Great Pub very close up the hill, 10 minutes down hill to the beach. Found some good dog friendly pubs and restaurants in Teighmouth. We had a great stay.

The house is kept immaculately, with clever furniture choices to maximise space.

It is also well resourced - you’ll have everything you need! The garden is lovely and the outhouse useful for an additional fridge. The ‘how to’ guide came in handy with details of the walks we could go on in the local area.

1.

Step just as you come in should have something to distinguish that it is a step as having the same tile's in the hall and the kitchen you can not see the step 2. same in the kitchen in front of the arga 3. The back patio could do with some repair work as it is a bad trip hazard for slightly older people. 4.table and chairs outside could do with being replacing as they are not comfortable due to the fact that they have been repaired so often. 5.This is not a complaint this is an observation this holiday was taken at Rose cottage because it is pet friendly and has the public house so close.I think that you should inform people that the pub is not dog friendly. You can not take your dog inside you have to sit outside even if you are eating.

This is a beautiful property in a great location and it is a credit to the owners.

It is a beautifully presented, clean, well equipped cottage and we had no complaints with regards the cottage facilties or setting. It was lovely. It is also in a great location. It is a beautiful village, and the pub at the top is within walking distance, and serves good food and drinks. Great for the first night. We also liked the fact that it sits halfway between Dawlish and Teignmouth, with both easily accessible... either on foot or by bus. Thank you, and we look forward to hopefully staying again.
