“Although there are 3 bedrooms upstairs the space downstairs was so small it ...”

Although there are 3 bedrooms upstairs the space downstairs was so small it really was not big enough to accomodate 6 people (certainly not 6 adults)

Thank you for taking the time to leave your feedback. We were especially surprised to see this as there were only two of you at the Cottage and we've received such positive reviews from larger parties. There is a note on the listing to advise that: This property is best suited for 4 adults and 2 children. The photos on the listing do clearly depict the space available downstairs at the property and we can confirm that there is space for 6 to relax in the living room plus seating space for six in the separate dining area.

“Church Steps is a delightful cottage.”

It has all the equipment you may need and is wonderfully decorated. The owner is contactable and really helpful for any questions and suggestions. We had a fabulous week in Winkleigh which is a good central base in which to explore Devon.
