Lovely clean cottage, surprisingly spacious inside and a sunny courtyard at the back. The furnishings are lovely and the bed really comfortable. The only negative from my point of you is that, as a lone traveller with no car, I needed to get to Totnes in order to travel on to other destinations, but I guess that’s my problem.
