    “Myrtle cottage is a lovely little thatched Grade 2 listed cottage built around 1650, perfect for 2 adults and a dog.”

    It has kept its old worldly charm but with modern touches. There is low beam downstairs (if you are under 5'10 there is no risk of banging your head!) and the low ceiling does make the downstairs feel dark, but this is all part of the old building and it's charm. The cottage is very clean and well equipped with everything you might need, a very comfy bed and luxurious bathroom. The off street parking is a benefit as the cottage is directly on the road, however, this does mean you don't have ...

The off street parking is a benefit as the cottage is directly on the road, however, this does mean you don't have a fenced off garden. Located in a small village with a very nice pub, village shop and friendly neighbours, it has everything you need for a relaxing getaway in south Devon. We booked this last minute (2 days before!) and there was no previous reviews but I'm glad we took the chance... highly recommended and would definitely stay again when in the area.

About the location

STOKEINTEIGNHEAD

Shaldon 1.7 miles; Newton Abbott 4 miles; Torquay 6 miles.

Stokeinteignhead is a picturesque village nestled in a steep valley near the sea in south Devon. Lined with pretty thatched cottages, the narrow winding village streets house a traditional friendly pub, a community village shop, school and historic church. Nearby, Shaldon is an attractive fishing village nestling at the mouth of the River Teign, a river renowned for its cockles, mussels and salmon. With quaint cottages, individual shops and narrow streets lined with cafes, Shaldon is a place to wander, relax and enjoy life by the sea. The children will love the sandy beaches reached through Smuggler’s Tunnel, and adults and children alike will enjoy the botanical gardens and small zoo, followed by a traditional Devon cream tea. The Ness headland rises proudly above the mouth of the estuary, guarding the waters between Shaldon and the busy Victorian town of Teignmouth, offering some of the most stunning views in the West Country.

Note - It is advised that dogs should be kept on a lead when outside the cottage.
