From here a couple of steps down takes you through to a fantastically spacious yet cosy lounge, where soft leather sofas sit in front of a Smart TV with DVD, and the lovely fireplace is fitted with a warming wood burner effect electric fire. Another small flight of steps then takes you up and into the kitchen/diner, this is well-equipped and offers an electric oven and gas hob, microwave, fridge/freezer, dishwasher and washing machine. Head upstairs and onto the first floor you will then find yourself amongst the pretty bedrooms, which include a beautifully appointed king-size and a twin bedroom.

Fantastic cottage. The entrance tells you nothing about the wonderful, stylish and beautiful interior that just gets better the further into the property you go until you get to the kitchen opening onto the most wonderful secret high walled garden. A real sanctuary the shields you from almost everyone and creates a sun trap.

Beautiful cottage and walled 'secret' garden. Equipped with everything you needed sor a self catering holiday. Cannot fault anything with the cottage. Beautifully decorated and gorgeous bed linen.

The cottage was impeccably clean and very well equipped. The rooms were very pleasant and comfortable. The garden was completely secure and perfect for a very active dog! However it was situated right on the busy main road through the town and Combe Martin itself seemed fairly run down and tired.

A lovely cottage which feels like home away from home. All the little extras available makes settling into the cottage very easy which is what you want on a short stay. When there was a small issue with the boiler, it was dealt with immediately with little/no impact. 4 adults, 2 children and a small dog all fitted comfortably.
