This property is one of two holiday cottages on the owner’s smallholding close to the pretty village of Clovelly. Clovelly is a wonderful place to while away a day, and with its traffic-free cobbled streets, feels like a peaceful step back in time. There are guided tours of the village available, as well as the chance to visit the Fisherman’s Cottage museum and take part in pottery and craft workshops. A range of boat trips are offered from the village’s harbour, and visitors can also buy daily fishing permits. A short drive to the south, the Cornish town of Bude is a popular place for seaside lovers, with its choice of beaches, and traditional seaside facilities including a tidal pool. And don't forget to visit the beautiful gardens of RHS Rosemoor altogether making this a great location for exploring both Devon and Cornwall.

This wooden lodge-style property is tastefully decorated in an understated style, which makes it a perfect place to enjoy a relaxed holiday. The main living area is the spacious lounge diner, which has French doors leading to the property’s decked area. The comfortable seating in this room allows guests to relax and unwind whilst enjoying the TV and DVD. The well-equipped kitchen has everything that guests will need, including an electric oven and hob, microwave, fridge with ice compartment, washing machine and dishwasher. The property’s two bedrooms are also located on the ground floor. The main bedroom is a tranquil and relaxing double, whilst the second bedroom is an equally tasteful and understated twin room. The bathroom benefits from an elegant roll-top bath and a separate shower cubicle and WC.

Outside, the detached lodge sits in its own grounds with a large lawn perfect for the pups or children to play in while you watch from the decked area with seating and a BBQ. Guests are also more than welcome to explore the smallholding and may enjoy meeting and helping to feed the animals, which include chickens, and ducks.

Great directions, we found Orchard Lodge very easily and once settled the owners visited to ensure everything was ok. They gave us hints and tips about the heating, cooker and dishwasher and after a quick question and answer session about the area, left us to it.

Excellent holiday lodge away from the hustle and bustle but still only 20 mins drive from the fabulous beach at Sandymouth. The garden was fully secure for our springer spaniel so we were able to relax and let him roam. Lovely welcome from the owner next door with a super homemade cake, but still very private.
