It is all one level, which was great. There was everything you could need for your stay. There were four of us, and plenty of room.The whole place was immaculately clean and tidy. It was the nicest place we have been to this year. Suzanne, the owner was easy to contact. We had a query and she answered it straight away. She also asked our opinions on any improvements that could be made to the property, which was nice. We believe that it is perfect for a small family and will definitely return. It is in an ideal location to visit the local beautiful towns and villages that South Devon had to offer. It has been a great find for us as a family, as we visit Devon 4 or 5 times a year. The only negative was pulling out of the double gates st the rear of the property with some inconsiderate people parking opposite the gates making it hard to turn onto the road outside as it was a bit tight turning with cars parked there. The steps down to the property at the back are a little steep, so it's best to walk round to the front door. That said we will definitely return, oh and thank you for the biscuits.

I enjoyed a great week! There are a few small, inexpensive recommendations that I think would make things even better: 1. The clothes airer was broken on arrival, l left a note on it for the cleaner. 2. No rack in the shower cubicle to put soap or bottles in, which makes showering problematic! 3. No waste baskets in the living room or bedrooms. I donât wish these recommendations to be published, as they decry from a fabulous stay but just thought the owner may wish to know. You may publish the first 2 sentences ONLY!

Enjoyed our stay at Cove Cottage we used the convenient road parking at front of property, the owner was very proactive in ensuring our stay was up to expectations of previous customer ratings. The accommodation suited us a small group of 3, A washing machine and clothes airier kept our towels fresh, a perfect location to enjoy the "English Riviera". The No 22 bus is a bit 'hit and miss' at present with stagecoach having many issues, however still managed a visit to Torquay, Teignmouth and Dawlish. The nearby coastal path walk to Oddicombe Beach is a testing return leg..!! , but enjoyable. Overall we all enjoyed our break and the accommodation.
