    Bedrooms are generous and charming and there's a very pretty courtyard for sitting outside. We were very comfortable and had a great stay. Location is in the centre of Devon so, if you are happy to drive, there's lots to do - South to Dartmoor or North to the coast. We loved Woolly Alpacas, (just outside Winkleigh), River Dart Country Park, climbing Hound Tor, Tunnels Beach and Ilfracombe Sea Safari. Good little convenience store + pub, butchers and coffee shop in Winkleigh were handy too. We hope to come back.

    The cottage is lovely and cosy, and the yard to the rear proved to be an excellent sun trap. Although there isn't any dedicated parking, we were easily able to pull up outside to unpack the car, and we were always able to park up in the square which is a short walk through the church yard. The village is very nice as well and pleasant to walk around, plenty of thatched roofs and quiet streets, and can recommend the Kings Arms for a drink and a meal.
