Ceilings too low, kept banging my head and difficult to get a shower. I am 6 ft 3ins so would be fine for a person of average height

Donna and Steve where charming hosts and helped with our questions about the area. The room was excellent, and the town of Colyton is close by to the area that we wanted to visit (Beer). I would whole heartedly recommend the White Cottage to anyone considering this area of south Devon. We will be booking again for multiple visits in 2026. Before we booked, we didn't realise the Colyton Carnival was on the same weekend. It was a wonderful event to see. We were really made to feel at home in the White Cottage. Breakfast was superb and the onsite bar for guests to mingle was a bonus. Wi-Fi was easy to access with no drop out of performance despite being fully booked. Beautiful garden to relax in and off-road parking for the owners and the guests was a major selling point for us.
Nothing. Its a superb place to stay in South Devon.

My friend and I were on a motorcycle tour. Before we stayed at The White Cottage, Steve messaged us with good advice about parking (need for a soft ground puck on the gravel parking area), and to book our evening meal at The Kingfisher pub (very necessary). On arrival we were met by Steve who helped us 'square away', showed us our rooms and explained the workings of The White Cottage. I could easily go on but suffice to say that this is a wonderful place to stay. There has obviously been a lot of thought, care and attention put into the property and looking after guests. Steve and Donna are super hosts and we wish them every success in their venture!
Absolutely nothing!

Breakfast was superb, the room was very clean and well supplied with towels, hairdryer, tea, coffee, biscuits and water as expected. The bed was very comfortable with good quality mattress and bedding, in fact super cosy. Shower was powerful and hot just how we like it. On return from a day out we sat in the garden next to water feature and had an icecream which was very pleasant and tranquil. The hosts were welcoming, accommodating and friendly.
I have no complaints, everything was executed to a high standard. Would definitely recommend to solo travellers, couples and small families.

The cottage was immaculately clean and the breakfast was delicious. Dietary requirements were accommodated with no issues. Parking was easy, as was exploring the local area on foot, by car, and on the Seaton tramway. The owners were very welcoming, and we felt very happy and comfortable staying here.

The building itself was gorgeous, built in the 1800s. It has lovely grounds to sit in, which we done because weather was nice. The village pub was nice the locals were very friendly.
Only complaints was my pillow was too firm. And mattress was firm too. I can honestly say that we could be back but I will bring my feather pillow from home.

It was very cold outside and the room was warm and cosy. Excellent choice for breakfast and well cooked. Everything I needed in the room was provided.
You can't improve on perfection. There was nothing I didn't like.

The cottage was unique and a lovely example of a house of that period. The garden was large and delightful to sit in. Donna and Steve were perfect hosts, couldn't do enough for you. Breakfast was a joy, quality produce and cooked very well.
Heating needed to come on 1 hour earlier in the evening however it was very warm while sleeping.
The bathroom window would benefit from appropriate glass for privacy as it looked onto the carpark. However pulling the blind down did help.
