About this cottage rental

Our 400 year old cottage is in the lovely North Devon village of West Down.
Packed with original features such as the inglenook fireplace and wood floors this cosy cottage is equally welcoming in the heart of winter as coming in straight off the beach.

There are 3 Bedrooms and 2 Bathrooms and an extra downstairs toilet. Downstairs has 2 reception rooms with SKY TV and a country kitchen & Utility room.

There are some restrictions with the bed layout. The two upper bunk beds are only suitable for children. We can arrange for an additional double sofa bed (in the biggest bedroom) to be made up at an extra cost if your party is all adults or you want extra beds to a maximum of nine guests.

A walled garden gives you somewhere safe to play or sit and enjoy a summer BBQ, watching village life go on around you.

In the barn there is some wet play facilities including table tennis and darts.

We have new off street parking at the cottage for one car. It can be busy at times, however there should always be another space outside our barn or alternatively, especially if you have more than one car, there is a free village car park just off of Thorn Park. (1 min walk)

Great base for exploring the beaches of North Devon. We had a lovely week. The house is really well stocked, especially the kitchen. All the bed were really comfortable and the house had a really good layout with lots of space for breakout areas (great for adult and kids).The front garden was secure for dogs and small children. We had a great time and would highly recommend it.

We travel to North Devon every year and normally stay in Woolacombe. However, this year we went with another family and this collage was perfect for us all. We did have a hiccup at the start which was completely out of the host's control and Mark was absolutley brilliant in sorting us out. The accommodation is lovely and Mark is very attentive. We particularly liked the snug and the large kitchen, which was well equipted, plus a washer and dryer (fabulous!). Outside you can wash out wetsuits and leave to dry. Actually, the rooms are bigger than they look in the photos and we all felt it was really homely. To cap off a great cottage, there is a wonderful pub within a 2 minute walk with nice food and a welcome glass of something cold. A great spot with only a 15 minute drive to Woolacombe Beach. Finally, we left a few raincoats when we checked out. Mark was really great in getting them back to us quickly :). Great stay!

6.0 / 10.0Average·Aug 2025
It was a lovely size for 4 adults, 2 grandchildren and 1 dog. Even though we all loved the cottage, the pictures up are deceiving. It’s all pristine all newly painted. In reality, the paint work inside and out need tidying up, scuff marks on the walls, the top of the American fridge freezer is thick with dust, as between the washer and dryer. In the furthest bedroom there is a lot of mould around the window. There were cobwebs in every corner top and bottom. Dust under every piece of furniture. The cottage could be amazing with a little tlc. The front garden also required a face lift.
