Location
Daisy Cottage is peacefully situated in an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty mid-way between the small East Devon towns of Colyton and Honiton and close to the coast. The cottage is quietly tucked away in an idyllic rural setting, surrounded by green fields and wooded hills, only a short drive from the dramatic World Heritage coastline and the many pretty towns and villages of East Devon and West Dorset. Walkers will be spoilt for choice with a network of local footpaths accessible from the doorstep. The East Devon Way passes within a mile of the cottage. This property is also well located for those keen to explore this stunning area of coast and countryside by car. The pretty seaside resorts of Sidmouth and Lyme Regis, and the quaint coastal villages of Beer and Branscombe, are all within a short drive. For those wanting to venture a little further the historic cathedral city of Exeter or the wild expanses of Dartmoor are less than an hour away.
