Great cottage for a family with kids and a dog. Brilliantly well equipped and comfortable. Additional facilities of pool and games room were a life saver on rainy afternoons. Everything was within an easy driving distance whether you wanted woodland walks, beach, town, food out etc. Overall a fab base for a trip away.

Really lovely place to stay, house was big enough for 4 adults and a crazy dog. Pool was great and the outside area looked lovely (we went in December so didn't sit outside)

First time staying at this cottage but have stayed in Devon for many years. The cottage is situated conveniently to Totnes. The kitchen was well equipped with a vast amount of equipment and made catering for a family of five very easy. The games room, playground and swimming pool were great for quieter days or rainy days. The games room had a wise Read morerange of toys and equipment that entertained all three children aged 1-8. Hide

Chaffinch/bullfinch cottage was spotlessly clean and had everything you could possibly need for a holiday! The location was perfect for a whole range of activities all within a 20-30 min drive. We found it a really peaceful place to stay and the kids loved the onsite facilities and were in the park & pool every day. We would definitely recommend!
