Family-Friendly Cottages in Devon

With miles of fantastic beaches, some of the UK’s most interesting historical sites and a varied selection of local attractions, Devon is a wonderful destination for an exciting family holiday. There’s so much to see and do that whether you are looking for an active getaway, or a relaxing break on the coast, you’ll be sure to find something to suit every occasion.   

There are many ways to enjoy the very best of what Devon offers, but a self-catering cottage can provide you and your family with a home-away-from-home where you can take in the local sights at your own pace. If you are looking for something that really sets your holiday apart, why not consider one of our luxury holiday cottages? With additional features including spectacular views, gaming rooms and hot-tubs, these unique properties are sure to deliver a holiday experience that your family will remember for years to come.  

Many of our cottages are also dog-friendly, welcoming one or more pets. Some properties include a fully enclosed garden, which can be ideal for letting your dog enjoy the outdoors while you tuck into a tasty barbeque or simply focus on soaking up some sun! 

With so many of our Devon properties resting on the coast, they are perfect for taking young children to their first seaside holiday, or even embarking on an adventure holiday with bigger kids and grown-ups for a surf adventure! The popular resort towns of Salcombe and Torquay for example, provide a little bit of everything from fantastic local shops and restaurants to art galleries and all while remaining just a stone’s-throw from the beach.  

Just across from Torquay is the traditional fishing town of Brixham, situated on the southern end of Torbay. The town is famed for its fresh local seafood that your family will love, while its attractions, theatres and even a local pirate festival will provide endless hours of entertainment.  

If you are interesting in a more relaxed getaway, or would simply enjoy a quieter holiday home away from the main action, why not consider one of the many smaller villages on the South Devon coast as the base for your trip? The charming village of Shaldon is set on the south bank of the estuary of the River Teign and is highly regarded as a relaxed bathing destination. 

Further along the coast on Devon’s Jurassic Coast you will find the village of Beer, which faces Lyme Bay just a short distance from Seaton. The village is home to a beautiful stone beach dotted by small fishing boats and buffered by dramatic cliffs, making it the perfect spot of a pleasant family day out.
