Guests say
Sawtons Cottage 2 in Dawlish, Devon, receives high praise for its cleanliness, modern amenities, and dog-friendly environment. Guests appreciate the well-equipped space, comfortable furnishings, and thoughtful touches. Its location offers convenient access to dog walking areas and beaches, though a car is recommended for ease of travel. The property is well-regarded for providing a peaceful and enjoyable holiday experience.
The cottage is consistently described as immaculately clean and well-presented, with multiple reviews highlighting its cleanliness. One isolated incident of fleas does not significantly impact the overall high standard noted by guests.
The location is praised for its proximity to dog-friendly beaches and country parks, though some guests note it can be a bit out of the way and tricky for walking the dog directly from the property. A car is recommended for optimal access to nearby attractions.
Guests find the cottage comfortable, with special mentions of the quality of the beds and the warmth of the property during cold weather. One guest found the lounge sofa uncomfortable, but this appears to be an isolated preference.
Facilities are generally regarded as excellent, with modern and well-equipped kitchen and bathroom. Some guests suggested minor improvements, such as additional coat hangers and pegs for the washing line, but overall satisfaction with the facilities is high.
While guests express gratitude for the thoughtful touches and extras that enhance their stay, there is no specific mention of gifts. Therefore, it cannot be confirmed if gifts are provided, and guests should not expect them as a guarantee.

A couple of miles north east of the town of Dawlish is Dawlish Warren, a mile-long sand beach at the mouth of the River Exe on the stretch of south Devon coastline known as the English Riviera. Dawlish Warren has a selection of shops selling essentials, a golf course and a 55-acre nature reserve, an area of international importance for wildlife, and a roosting site for huge numbers of wading birds and wildfowl that winter on the estuary. The Nature Reserve is also home to more than 450 species of flowering plants including the rare Warren or Sand Crocus. Guided tours around the Reserve are available in the summer season. The beach at Dawlish Warren is a sandy Blue Flag beach backed by sand dunes and small lakes and stretches for miles to reach the Exe Estuary in one direction and Dawlish town in the other. A safe beach, lifeguarded in summer, provides a perfect place for seaside fun, and has many free, open-air events, children's entertainers and spectacular firework and air displays during the summer season. Dawlish Warren has a railway station on the Exeter to Newton Abbot line, one of the most scenic railway journeys in the country. Nearby there is much to occupy the visitor along the English Riviera coastline including Paignton Zoo, the Dartmouth Steam Railway, the picturesque fishing harbour of Brixham and the long pier and promenade at Teignmouth. A typically English seaside resort, great for family holidays at any time of year.

More space than I was expecting. Access - if youâre coming from Exeter direction, take Port Road on the right, just before Sainsburys. Taking Fore street in Kenton, your first option and the way the satnav took us, is the long way round on very narrow roads. Good array of crockery and cutlery. Plenty of fridge and freezer space. Large smart TV. Would highly recommend. Plenty of local pubs and takeaways .
