Particularly appreciated the food basics so often lacking - spices, herbs, oil, salt, tea, coffee etc

Great base to explore the South Hams region. Charming cottage in a charming village. Weâd go back in a trice.

Very comfortable, has everything we needed, clean and well maintained. It is a really good location to visit local beaches. We had a lovely stay and I would happily recommend it. No criticism of the property in any way, but visitors should be made aware that the cars outside come literally to the doorstep and drive very fast - be extra cautious with children and dogs.
