These hand-picked cottages are situated in some of Devon’s most popular locations including Dartmouth, Ilfracombe, Torquay, and Salcombe, providing the perfect base from which to discover everything Devon has to offer.

Spend some time exploring the beautiful landscapes of Exmoor and Dartmoor National Parks. Just the place for a bracing walk or exhilarating mountain bike ride, there’s plenty of flora and fora to look out for while enjoying spectacular views across the tors and hills. Be sure to keep an eye out for the wild ponies that roam the moorland, and look up to see magnificent raptors circling overhead.

Devon has two spectacular coastlines with the rugged cliffs and vast beaches in the North exposed to the full force of the Atlantic Ocean. They’re ideal for surfing, coasteering, and other watersports, and home to an abundance of seabirds.

For sand, sun, and relaxation, head to Devon’s stunning South coast where you’ll find estuaries and coves with crystal clear waters, just perfect for swimming and snorkelling. Walk the South West Coast Path running along the Jurassic Coast, hunting for fossils along the way, or take a boat trip out to sea to view the dramatic rock formations from offshore.

A holiday in Devon wouldn’t be complete without sampling a delicious cream tea, but the county has many other culinary delights for foodies including hearty farmhouse breakfasts, locally caught seafood, clotted cream fudge, dreamy ice cream, and traditional scrumpy.

With ancient woodlands, secluded valleys, rolling farmland, unspoilt wetlands, meandering rivers, historic settlements, and so much more, Devon is the ultimate playground for adventurers and explorers, whether you’re planning a family holiday, romantic break, or a getaway with friends.

For that extra touch of luxury why not choose a cottage with a swimming pool, hot tub, open fire, or woodburning stove. And if you can’t bear not to bring your four-legged friend on holiday with you, many of these cottages are dog-friendly too.
