About this property

This property is the epitome of simple elegance. Neutrally decorated and furnished to a high standard, Meadow Thatch is the perfect balance of original period features and unaffected modern decor. Situated in the traditional village of Cockington in South Devon, it is the ideal property for a large group or family wanting to experience all the beauty of the surrounding area in a luxurious setting. The downstairs hallway leads to a light and airy ground floor bedroom boasting a king-size bed and views over the front garden. Across the hall is a large family bathroom with a spacious walk-in shower. With its high ceilings, exposed beams and breakfast bar, the full appointed kitchen offers a wonderfully sociable space for cooking together. The open-plan living area is spacious yet cosy, with the dining and sitting spaces slightly partitioned creating the illusion of two separate rooms. Relax together on the comfortable sofas discussing what exciting adventures are in store for the rest of your stay, or enjoy a delicious meal at the dining table, with the patio doors opened out into the garden and a warm summer breeze diffusing around the room. Upstairs are two further bedrooms, again impeccably decorated and furnished, both of which offer beautiful views of the gardens. One bedroom has a king-size bed and the other a super-king size bed that can be converted into two single beds if needed. This room also has the additional option of a sofa bed that can sleep a further two children. There is also a modern family bathroom on this floor featuring a bath and hand-held shower. Outside there are three enclosed gardens. At the front of the property there is a lawn with a babbling stream running along one side, there is also a gravel area with seating. At the back of the property there are two separate enclosed gardens, bisected by the stream. Both offer lawn and seating areas, one of which being a raised platform with furniture and a BBQ. The gardens offer a tranquil place to relax, with the only sounds being birdsong and the trickle of the stream. Cockington is a picturesque centre boasting a number of traditional eateries, shops and the sixteenth century manor house, Cockington Court, that has been converted into a thriving arts and crafts centre. The Court's acreage offers plenty of beautiful walking trails that are dog-friendly and full of fascinating sites. A short walk is the vibrant seaside resort of Torquay, a busy town with plenty of restaurants, bars, and shops as well as popular theatre.

    There was a problem midweek which was rectified immediately.

    It was a perfect stay. The location was stunning and so quiet, we settled in to the cottage straight away, it felt like home. The cottage was a great balance between all the mod cons we could want and the charm and character of a very unique property. Cockingtom is such a beautiful place which has a sunning park to walk the dog, we ate quite a few times at the drum pub just a 5-minute walk away, the food is lovely, it’s very dog friendly but I do recommend booking because it’s very popular. The only thing that would make our stay even better would to have a few more cushions that fit the garden furniture outside. Luckily, we took a couple of foldable chairs with us so wasn’t a problem. We’d like to suggest getting a couple of sun loungers they would be perfect to use in the cottages amazing garden to take advantage of the glorious Devon weather. We will definitely be booking again next year as we enjoyed it so much.
