“The location of Searles cottage really cannot be bettered.”
The outside terrace was an added bonus, with the sunset reaching the terrace in perfect time for pre-dinner drinks! The owner of Searles lives close by which was very useful, she’s a lovely lady, very helpful and friendly. Inside, the cottage is bathed in the most glorious light thanks to all the windows, looking out across the estuary, over to Starcross and Powderham Castle. The cottage has been very thoughtfully kitted out, with a homely shabby chic/beach style that works perfectly in this setting. The cottage will comfortably host 3-4 adults without feeling cramped. Nearby, you are moments away from the train station, so park the car and forget about it, the Avocet train line is regular and much quicker than sitting in traffic or trying to find a parking space. Lympstone is a quiet, tranquil spot to return to after a day out, and The Swan and The Globe pubs are moments away from Searles. A positively perfect spot - we’ll most definitely be returning to the splendid Searles again soon!
