Guests say
Partridge Cottage in Devon boasts stunning views and a private beach, offering a tranquil and picturesque setting. Guests appreciate the clean and comfortable accommodation, the friendly animals on-site, and the thoughtful welcome touches. While some find the facilities and space adequate for their needs, others note limitations in the bathroom and kitchen for larger groups. The location is highly praised for its beauty and proximity to coastal walks.
The majority of guests report the cottage as clean and well-presented. However, a few guests encountered issues with cleanliness, such as the presence of woodlice and slugs, and a smell of dogs in the kitchen, which slightly lowers the score.
The location is consistently lauded for its outstanding views, private beach, and proximity to coastal paths. It's described as tranquil and perfect for nature lovers, contributing to a high score.
Guests find the beds comfortable and the cottage cosy, though some mention the property being cold and issues with low doorways. The comfort level is generally high, but the small bathroom and lack of space for larger groups are noted.
While the setting is idyllic, guests mention a lack of basic kitchen equipment, small fridges, and inadequate bathroom facilities for the number of guests. Some also noted the absence of a dishwasher and washing machine. The presence of a private beach and animal interactions are positives.
There are mentions of a welcoming touch with tea and cakes upon arrival, suggesting thoughtfulness. However, as gifts are not consistently referenced across reviews, it cannot be guaranteed for future guests, and thus the score is set to null.

The accommodation is excellent, very clean, well stocked with everything you could possibly need, and the beds are super comfortable! The scenery is beautiful and the animals are so friendly and overall the facilities are just great. And the private beach is perfect for a nice swim, rock pooling or just sitting and enjoying the peace and quiet. Overall, it is a wonderful place to stay and we can't wait to come back

We travelled in an electric car, which we were able to charge in Coombe Martinâs public car park using the fast chargers. The nature of the private beach means it is teeming with wildlife - we saw jellyfish, sea anemones, crabs and small fish. A beach to be respected and safely explored - beach shoes a must (which can be purchased in Coombe Martin). There are plenty of attractions for all ages, and sandy beaches within an hour of widmouth farm, but the childrenâs play area with picnic benches (next to pheasant cottage) and animal feeding at the farm make chilled days at the cottage, with small children both fun and relaxed - these days are also a good opportunity to make use of the utility room without leaving the washing machines / tumble dryers occupied for longer than needed if out and about. We stayed in partridge this time, and my parents pheasant. Next time weâll book pheasant as it was a tad bigger. The bed provided a week of the best nights sleep I have had for some time! The mattress was made using the farmâs alpacaâs wool, due to the natural material it helps to regulate temperatures all year round. The views during the day are stunning and the quiet dark nights were very peaceful. On a clear night you could see the twinkling lights of south Wales. The cottage itself is very cool - perfect for a hot summers day, but the log fire provided the cosy you needed for the wet, gloomy days.
