About this property
This Grade II listed, 300-year-old thatched cottage is situated in a row of four in East Prawle. With a cosy atmosphere and plenty of character, this is welcoming accommodation in a lovely area. Head through the front door and leave your coats and boots in the porch, then on into the snug sitting room with its traditional beams and warming electric fire. The kitchen is a true country-style room where you can enjoy family meals around the table. Steep old stairs take you up to the bedrooms where you can even catch a glimpse of the sea from the window of the double. The lawn garden is peacefully located behind the cottage with a picnic table for alfresco meals, and there is a little paved area to the front, shared with the neighbour. It's just a short stroll out to the excellent village inn for a refreshing drink or tasty supper. Throughout the season the village is also serviced by a local shop with a good cafe (variable opening times) and the old market town of Kingsbridge provides a range of eateries and various shops too. If shopping appeals, catch the ferry across to Salcombe from East Portlemouth and you will discover tempting boutiques beside the waterfront. The coastline around East Prawle is stunning, with beautiful beaches and coves to explore and the Coast Path to walk and admire cliff top views and sightings of a variety of birds. Set in this fabulous location, Vine Cottage is a charming destination.
East Prawle is a small village near Prawle Point, the most southerly tip of Devon near Salcombe, in the beautiful South Hams area, renowned for its stunning coastline, popular with yachting enthusiasts.

The kitchen is well-equipped, and we valued the bottle of wine waiting for us as a welcome. Its not ideal for tall people, with one low doorway, an ordinary double and very low easy chairs. But the internet is good, and there's a good read garden where you eat out at a bench and watch the cows opposite grazing.

Really had a fun week here with lots of beautiful coastal walks nearby, as long as you like hills! The village shop was open when we stayed (early October), but would recommend that you bring all your food with you, as it is well out of the way, which is what we wanted.
