About this property
This is a sweet little end-of-terrace stone cottage situated in a quiet lane in the heart of the picturesque and ancient village of Slapton on the South Devon coast. Only half a mile from the shingle beach at Slapton Sands and the National Nature Reserve and freshwater lakes of Slapton Ley. This is an excellent area for walking with many footpaths and the South West coastal path nearby. Pine Cottage is a very prettily and comfortably furnished bolt hole with a cozy open fire for those spring and autumn evenings and is just a pleasant stroll away from two good pubs and the local village shop.
A delightful and very comfortable cottage in an idyllic Devon village... The Lovells.
