    “We had a fabulous week in Hope cottage.”

    Everything was great and the cottage was very comfortable and we passed a relaxing holiday. Our son and his girlfriend stayed for the first few days and then it was just the two of us and our two dogs. Peace and tranquility. The garden was great but it isn't completely dog proof. Not a criticism or a problem for us, just something to bear in mind. The parking was tight but we had it down to one manoeuvre after the second day. I will return and would recommend to my friends ...

Not a criticism or a problem for us, just something to bear in mind. The parking was tight but we had it down to one manoeuvre after the second day. I will return and would recommend to my friends without a second thought.

Winding Devon lanes lead to this pretty, detached, thatched cottage alongside a bridlepath on the side of the Cottwood Valley.

This rural cottage has lovely views of wooded hills beyond and easy access to beautiful woodland and river walks in an unspoiled corner of Devon.

From the narrow driveway, gate to enclosed garden, cobbled terrace and steps up to well stocked, secluded garden with pond (covered), decked area, patio and sloping lawns.

Large open-plan hall and beautiful kitchen/dining room (dishwasher, fridge, electric oven/induction hob) with woodburner.

From the hall, step down to large living room with huge fireplace (woodburner) and TV/DVD.

Step up to utility room (useful for wet dogs/boots) with washing machine, tumble drier, freezer, microwave, fridge, sink and door to garden.

Downstairs bathroom (suite plus hand-shower).

Steep stairs (stairgates, low lintel) up to three bedrooms - step up to a large triple-aspect double (5' sleigh bed) and views, and step up to a double overlooking pretty garden and a twin (2'6" truckle, linkable to 5' double), both with limited clothes-hanging space.

Step up to small shower-room (suite).

Two golf courses nearby.
