The property can sleep up to 4 comfortably in two bedrooms (a double and a twin), with an additional room that can be used for dressing and extra storage. There is an open plan kitchen, living, dining space with an adjoining shower room with toilet and basin vanity unit. It is very light thanks to full width windows revealing beautiful views across its own shared lawn to the valley opposite. Part of a small holiday property development, it is well provisioned with all you require, including dishwasher, good sized fridge freezer, microwave, electric hob, double oven and grill, Nespresso machine and milk frother, smart TV and DVD player and complimentary broadband. There is a baby chair as well as children's cutlery and plates and a baby bath. In addition there is a shared laundry room with coin operated washing machine and dryer c.20 yards from the front door. Bed linen and bath towels are provided as well as a hand towel and bath mat in the bathroom, tea towel and oven gloves, washing up liquid and clean dishcloth and scourer. We ask for guests to provide their own beach towels. The property is set within two acres of delightful lawned shared grounds. The gardens are largely informal, with communal barbeque area and picnic tables and large lawned areas, great for playing games. The property is 1 of 3 similar properties at the rear of the development which enjoy shared use between them of a lovely semi-enclosed lawned section of the garden. Access to the property is via 2 small sets of steps from the car park. Parking is available for one car (please contact us if a second car is required as this can be accommodated). Hope Cove is a wonderful village and has all that you need for a relaxing holiday by the sea. One of the delights is being able to park the car and not need it again for the rest of your stay, however if you want to explore the area there is more than enough to keep you entertained with incredible walks, pubs and restaurants and interesting nearby towns like Salcombe and Dartmouth. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby - Beach loungers ### Internet - Available in the cottage: Free WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Paper towels - Refrigerator - Stovetop - Toaster ### Dining - Dining table ### Bedrooms - 2 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 1 bathroom - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Dining table - Living room ### Entertainment - DVD player - Smart TV - Stereo ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden - Outdoor furniture - Porch/lanai ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - One pet total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Change of bedsheets (on request) - Change of towels on request - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a village - Near the sea ### Things to do - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Sailing nearby - Snorkeling nearby - Surfing/bodyboarding nearby - Swimming nearby - Water tubing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property; consider bringing a portable detector) - Smoke detector not reported (host has not indicated whether there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Bed sheets changed on request - Comprehensive recycling policy - Double-glazed windows - Garden - Towels (changed on request) ## Policies ### Check-in Check-in time starts at 3:00 PM Minimum check-in age: 25 ### Check-out Check-out before 11:00 AM ### Special check-in instructions You will receive an email from the host with check-in and check-out instructions ### Rules While pets are welcome, please note that they are not allowed on any of the furniture or in any of the bedrooms.

Lovely views out over the countryside and being no 3 at the end of the row no one walks pass you, so more private than the other two. Really useful fields to wander round which our dog enjoyed and ideally situated being a very short stroll into Hope Cove. We had a wonderful time and the sun shone ☀️ what more could you ask for! ##### Sally B. Stayed 3 nights in Jun 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Margaret S.

The property is well appointed and has all you need. My kids and dogs loved the outdoor space; - this is shared (though not everyone uses it) but is big enough to still have privacy...its perfect for kids to have safe freedom to run and play. Bbq area also provided. Our hosts were great with all communications. Can't wait to go back! ##### Polly G.
