About this property
Cowslip Cottage is a delightful barn conversion on the outskirts of Frogmore, a pretty village with a picturesque creek and fantastic bakery. Situated only eight miles from Salcombe and within easy reach of the Start Bay coastline (just a 10-minute drive away), this is a fantastic base for a holiday.
Nestled in a peaceful, rural location, surrounded by countryside, this barn conversion has an open-plan kitchen/sitting/dining area with bi-fold doors out to the rear terrace. The country kitchen is very well equipped with a classic range cooker. There is also an oak dining table with seating for six, whilst the sitting area has a large leather sofa. There are three bedrooms in total: on the first floor is a King-size double, and a twin room. The spacious master is located on the second floor and has a super King-size bed and an en suite bathroom with a bath and shower cubicle. In addition to the master en suite bathroom is a family bathroom on the first floor with bath and shower cubicle.
Outside the barn is an attractive garden for children to explore, whilst at the rear is a paved terrace with outdoor furniture to enjoy some al fresco dining in the summer sunshine. There is allocated parking for one car, however additional visitors’ spaces are usually available.
Ideally set up for a family looking for a quiet retreat, within easy reach of Devon’s unspoilt beaches, this baby-friendly property provides excellent accommodation.
The tranquil village of Frogmore, located at the head of Frogmore Creek, is surrounded by stunning countryside and is just three miles from the pretty market town of Kingsbridge. Within a 10-minute drive from beautiful Start Bay and the 1.2 mile long beach at Slapton Sands, Frogmore is a fantastic holiday destination for those looking for a tranquil spot that’s in easy reach of a range of attractions. Walking from Frogmore to the village of West Charleton along the water’s edge is a great way to see the creek. This pretty village is well-known for its excellent bakery, traditional pub, beautiful creek and perhaps most of all, it’s family-friendly annual regatta in August.

We had a fantastic time at Cowslip Cottage. The whole party agreed the accommodation was of a very high standard and we loved the underfloor heating especially at this time of the year !!! A great base to explore the area and would have no hesitation on returning next year, couldn't fault anything. Thank you ..

The number of steps both inside and out should be quoted ( 26 inside and 17 outside). The mattress in the main bedroom was tired and uncomfortable. The lounge lacks curtains to the patio doors and windows. Unfortunately a hornets nest in the next door property meant all windows should be kept closed when lights on indoors. We had to rid ourselves of 9 hornets the first night as we were unaware of the problem which we reported to Sykes who said they would take it up with the owners. Overall a nice property with a few problems we encountered.
