This summary has been generated using feedback from guests who have stayed at this property

Whitcombe Cottage in Devon is highly praised for its cleanliness, welcoming hosts, and tranquil farm setting. Guests appreciate the well-equipped facilities, including a biomass boiler and car charger, and the property's suitability for dogs and those with limited mobility. The surrounding countryside offers ample opportunities for walks and exploring local towns and coastlines. Some minor maintenance issues and suggestions for improvements are noted, but overall, guests report a comfortable and enjoyable stay with thoughtful touches like homemade cakes.

Cleanliness

The majority of guests report the cottage as spotless and well-maintained. However, one review mentioned the presence of animal hair and the need for a more thorough cleaning in certain areas, slightly reducing the score.

Location

The location is consistently described as beautiful, peaceful, and ideal for exploring East Devon's countryside and coast. Its proximity to local attractions and suitability for dog walking contribute to a high score.

Comfort

Guests find the cottage comfortable, cosy, and well-equipped, with special mention of the log burner. Some concerns about bed sizes and a suggestion for additional showers indicate room for improvement.

Facilities

Facilities are generally praised, especially the well-equipped kitchen and eco-friendly features. However, comments about insufficient heating, lack of WiFi, and the need for clearer instructions on using certain amenities suggest some areas could be enhanced.

Thoughtfulness

Many guests mention thoughtful welcoming touches like homemade cakes and flowers. While these gestures are highly appreciated, it is noted that such personal touches, though common, may vary and are not guaranteed.

About this property

Whitcombe Cottage has been converted into comfortable accommodation from a barn across a courtyard from the main farmhouse. Head into the open plan living space with its cosy fuel-efficient wood burner and your eye will be caught by the splendid views to Dumpdon Hill. The kitchen is well equipped for preparing meals to enjoy in the dining area, and there are French windows to throw open to a sunny patio. You will find the two bedrooms upstairs, sharing a family bathroom as well as the downstairs shower room. Outside you have your own small garden, pretty with flowers, lawn and peaceful views, as well as the outdoor furniture and barbecue on the patio. This is a welcoming cottage with bags of comfort. This property can be booked with Whitcombe Cottage (976051) and Swallows Cottage (976052), all around the same courtyard and together they sleep a total 15 people.

Honiton is a delightful market town in East Devon, with plenty to offer visitors. It lies in the valley of the River Otter and is surrounded by rolling Devon hills, green wooded valleys and plenty of scattered farming villages.
