Ash Tree Cottage makes a good base for coastal walking in both Cornwall and Devon.

The outside of the property needs a re-paint and the summerhouse needs repair. The inside of the property was very good. It was very comfortable. Excellent well equipped kitchen. Nice bathroom. The owners have rightly been concentrating on the inside. The outside now needs some "TLC".
