… ½ mile from Scorriton, in the tiny hamlet of Combe through which the river Mardle meanders to the river Dart, a stunning detached cottage, once home to the author Mary Wesley and still a haven from the rush of the modern world. Across the little used single-track lane, a small enclosed orchard (picnic bench) and, beyond, a bluebell wood (deer, kingfishers) with the river running along one side. Behind the cottage, an enclosed lawned garden plus cobbled and paved terrace (table/chairs).
Inside, pared back and elegant with pale wood and stone floors, soothing white palette and original art. Step up from the garden into kitchen/dining room, a magnificent oak-framed extension, fully glazed on two sides with the sleek kitchen (dishwasher, larder fridge) along the length. Eight shallow steps down to snug living room (TV/DVD/Blu-ray) with woodburner. Second living room with chaise longue and woodburner, offering space for reading or writing. Utility room (washing machine, tumble drier, American-style fridge-freezer, sink) and bathroom (suite, hipbath plus hand-shower). Upstairs (some low lintels), two bedrooms, both simply furnished – an airy double (6’ bed) with pitched ceiling, views over the garden and shower-room (suite) up 7 steps, and a twin tucked under the eaves, plus smart bathroom (suite with separate shower). Spring water. A magical and sophisticated cottage in a tranquil, beautiful setting.

"I have found Helpful Holiday's just that, every holiday home has been great, and we will hopefully carry on using you. Many thanks."
Elizabeth Seward and family
"We had a brilliant week at Cullerford Cottage, thank you. We all enjoyed the wonderful aspects and comforts of the clever conversion. Luckily we had excellent spring weather, but i was secretly pleased to have rain on our last day and the excuse to spend a cosy time reading and still enjoy the landscape from the depth of a very luxurious kitchen chair! Helpful Holidays can not always deliver the weather I'm sure, but they did well in every other aspect. I will definitely book with you again for a west country holiday."

"Our holiday at Cullaford Cottage was everything as described by Helpful Holidays and more ,to have your own woods and access to the river Mardel was a big bonus. Thank you Helpful Holidays for making our break at Cullaford Cottage a memorable one."
