Lovely house to stay in - only reservation is that the stairs are steep so not so good for disabled people.Buckfastleigh is a nice place and places like Dartington and Totnes are so close. Lots of National Trust places, too.

Have just had our 2nd stay in this lovely cottage. Very clean and so comfortable. Bonus is having a parking permit for local carparks as parking is restricted at property. But carpark is only a 1min walk to property.Would highly recommend
