With two pubs within walking distance, Berry Bros. wine on sale in the community shop, and the coast and Dartmoor just a half hour’s drive away, what else do you need for a magical weekend away?

What our guests say about Wildflower Cottage

“5 Star, in fact if we could give a 6 star rating we would.  Usually our time spent away from home is in a hotel but on this occasion we thought we would try something a little different and what an absolute pleasure it was.  The cottage is located in a perfect hamlet, perfect for a relaxing break but also situated for easy travel to Exeter, Plymouth and beyond which was ideal for us.  The village is lovely with great walks and 2 quaint pubs which both offer nice food and  local hospitality.  The cottage its self was amazing, finishes were of a high standard and the welcome hamper was greatly appreciated.  Charlotte, the owner, was wonderful, welcoming and so helpful and Chilli (the family dog) was lovely and friendly. We will definitely be back. We can’t recommend this idyllic cottage and location enough.”

Living

Upstairs is one large, open-plan living space made for relaxing. You’ll find a stunning Danish wood burning stove at the heart of the room. A large, super-comfy Loaf sofa offers plenty of snuggle room among the cushions, where you can curl up on winter nights with the fire lit or with the stable doors open during the summer, letting the sounds of nature waft through on a warm summer’s breeze. Additionally, there’s a TV and eclectic DVD collection to binge on.

The kitchen is to one side, with a butlers sink and all the equipment you’ll need nicely tucked away inside white cupboards. In front of the kitchen area is a table made for two for on-the-go breakfasts before a day out exploring, or long lazy dinners, savouring local produce you’ve bought while out and about. Make sure to open the stable door on sunny days to let the golden rays warm you as you eat.

Sleeping

Downstairs is a romantic, colourful en suite boudoir in soul-lifting shades of yellows, blues and crisp whites. The stunning Feather & Black king-sized bed, swathed in goose-down bedding and linens, guarantee deep sleeps and long languorous lie-ins, while the gorgeous roll-top bath is just lovely. All you need is a glass of bubbles with your bubble bath to complete things! The lively artwork, velvet cushions and throws complete the room, making it a tranquil, idyllic hideaway to retreat to at the end of the day.

Next to the bedroom is a  wonderful shower room, complete with a huge walk-in shower with Lefroy Brooks fixtures and the most gorgeous mustard-yellow tiles and luxurious rainforest shower.

Outside space

Take a short stroll through the flower-filled courtyard to the peaceful orchard where you’ll find a rustic picnic table and pretty benches just for you, with beautiful views over the village and countryside – a perfect spot to enjoy a sundowner.

Parking

There is parking outside the cottage.

WiFi

Wildflower Cottage has WiFi so if you need to stay in contact with the outside world you can, although due to its rural location the signal can sometimes be patchy.

Dogs

One well-behaved, small to medium-sized dog is very welcome at Wildflower Cottage. We charge £30 per dog, per week or short break. There is no private garden attached to Wildflower cottage but you are welcome to use the orchard to give your dog a short walk. There are plenty of great walks around the village.

Baby friendly?

Sorry, Wildflower Cottage is for adults only.

Devon’s largest Good Food market takes place on the third Sunday of every month with over 50 stalls whilst a regular market occurs every Friday and Saturday. It’s also lovely to take a boat trip on the River Dart from here.
