Description

A beautifully renovated barn, located within stunning Devon countryside, close to Dartmoor and the dramatic South Devon coastline. Teign Cottage, a semi detached barn conversion with two bedrooms and open-plan living space makes a great escape for the family. For those who love to walk, Teign Cottage offers the perfect base to explore the rugged nearby moors or walk along the many footpaths, passing pretty thatched cottages and stopping off at one of the good food pubs, along the way. Broadhempston has two traditional village pubs and a village store.

The owners have renovated the barns to a high standard, with slate flooring and oak doors and some of the original features still visible. The downstairs open-plan kitchen/living/dining room offers great, social living space with large oak, glass doors opening out to the gravelled dining terrace. On the first floor, there is a good sized bathroom, twin bedroom with high vaulted ceiling and master bedroom overlooking the shared courtyard and extensive grounds. For those blustery and wet afternoons, switch on the electric living-flame fire and get stuck into that book you've always wanted to finish.

Teign Cottage is one of four holiday cottages, with owners farmhouse on-site too. The cottages have shared use of an indoor heated swimming pool (10mx5m), changing facilities and the added luxury of a sunken hot tub outside on the veranda - where you get to take in some of the gorgeous scenery which surrounds this very quiet hamlet of houses. There is also 4 acres of orchard to explore, plus beautifully maintained gardens, cared for by the very friendly owners. Sit amongst the gardens and enjoy the scents and sounds of the lavender and honey bee's busy working.

The other 3 cottages are as follows: Bovey Cottage Dart Cottage Plym Cottage 

It will be hard to resist exploring all of the nearby attractions, towns and walks. Totnes with its vibrant town is less than 6 miles away and the famous Riverford Field Kitchen is just over 10 minutes by car. For those who love a day on the beach, Torquay and it's many seaside attractions is only 10 miles or the famous, Blackpool Sands is 20 miles away. For the children, a day out to Dartington Hall or Paignton Zoo is a must.

Reviews

Our cottage was fully equipped with everything we needed for our self catering holiday. Warm and toasty throughout. The hosts were very welcoming and we will definitely stay with them there again xx

Mrs H,

Cottage was very clean and you had everything you needed. Just a nightmare to find. Bed wasn't very comfortable, but I have to admit I have a bad back.

Mrs B,

Very friendly and helpfull owners. Nice cottage with everything in it. Nice pool and hot tub. Forest and fields around for walks. We enjoyed the pub quiz at the pub nearby.

Mr L,

An absolutely amazing place to stay, the cottage was very well equipped, very clean and modern and with exceptionally fast WiFi. The swimming pool facilities wouldn't be out of place at a venue three times as large, and the rota system works very well. We had a wonderful time, and would love to go back. The local shop is very well appointed, and very friendly. The only thing to consider are the Devon roads, but after the second day we were used to them.

Mr M,

Solid and modern cottage in an idyllic setting. Recommended!

Ms J,

A great little cottage tucked away in beautiful countryside. The neighbouring village is lovely, with two super pubs, village shop and play park. The pool was fantastic and hosts were superb. We would definitely stay again.

Mrs P,

We had a fantastic weekend and as the only people there had exclusive use of the pool and hot tub. The cottage was as clean, comfortable and warm even though early March.

Mrs R,

Very nice cottage in lovely location. Hosts very polite and helpful, with lovely cupcakes on arrival. Swimming pool and hot tub a lovely touch with time slots working well. Would recommend!!

Mr H,

very well laid out and a very enjoyable week.

Mr M,
