Really clean and comfortable. The only advice is to avoid driving through the gate and use the free car park by the community center.

Warm and cosy and very well equipped with everything you need. Super views over the rolling South Devon countryside from the comfy main bedroom. And a sunny secret garden for an evening glass of wine! Accurately described on the listing, parking and accessibility for one small to medium car with plenty of free parking in the village carpark. A really enjoyable 4 days, the only slight hitch was the main bedroom was not made up when we arrived but I called the number supplied in the folder and the cleaning company brought out the bedding very promptly.

8m at its base and my car recieved paintwork damage..we would recommend that it would be advisable to unload and load vehicles in the street and park at the village hall..the local resident with a town car had damaged lower body work accessing his property on site.
