  • Geoff

    “The property was absolutely ideal for a pre Christmas getaway for me and the wife.”

    The cottage is superbly located right by the waterside in a lovely village with fantastic rail links and wonderful walks. Kate the owner communicated amazingly on the build up to our break and even called to let us know the cottage was ready a few hours early which was really appreciated. The cottage was very comfortable and had everything we needed including a Xmas tree, we enjoyed putting on the log burner after a day of exploring, and hope to return one day. Thank you

The property

On the waterfront in Lympstone, at the end of a cobbled lane, a completely refurbished semi-detached cottage in a ‘toes in the water’ position just a few yards from the water’s edge.

Fabulous water views across the bay to the harbour and over the estuary to Powderham Castle and Starcross.

Outside, a small, paved and walled area (table/chairs, bench) for alfresco dining.

Entrance from porch into living room with woodburner, smart TV/DVD, MP3 dock and small step up to dining room.

Small, smart kitchen (washing machine, microwave, fridge, electric oven/induction hob).

Downstairs loo.

From the dining room, steep stairs up to 6' lintel into a double bedroom (5' bed) with brilliant views; smart bathroom (suite, shower over bath).

More steep stairs up to a big attic bedroom with twin beds (zip-linkable to 6' double) and seating area (sloping ceiling) with comfy chairs for watching the sun sink over the distant hills.

Public car park, 400 yards.

A really well thought out, relaxing cottage, a brilliant bolt-hole whatever the time of year. Lympstone: pretty and remarkably unspoilt village between low red-stone cliffs beside the Exe estuary (sailing boats, windsurfers).

Harbour, estuary shingle beach, church, several pubs and shops, railway; stunning views.

Exmouth (sandy beaches), 3 miles; Exeter, 8; two good golf courses within 4 miles.

South West Coast Path from Lympstone to Exmouth (walk/cycle).

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
