Hansel is well located to explore all that South Devon has to offer. Mid way between the sailing meccas of Dartmouth and Salcombe, 15 minutes from the ‘Blue Flag’ Blackpool Sands beach and within 30 minutes drive of many sandy beaches, close to the South West Coast path and within an easy drive of Dartmoor, numerous children’s attractions and outdoor activities, there is something for everyone nearby. Nearby Slapton and Strete have three well regarded pubs between them. Slightly further afield Torcross, Beesands, Stokenham Kingsbridge and Dartmouth have numerous highly recommended pubs and restaurants to suit all age groups and budgets. The cottage has been recently renovated in a modern country style. It has four bedrooms (1 ensuite) with two further bathrooms. There is plenty of space for larger family or friend groups - sleeping eight people - with three main reception rooms and a generous farmhouse style kitchen. The former pigsty now provides a utility room with wetsuit drying area and a space for table tennis. There is also a pool table in the larger of the sitting rooms. ## Property amenities ### Beach - Beach nearby ### Internet - Available in the cottage: WiFi ### Parking and transportation - Parking on site ### Kitchen - Coffee/tea maker - Cookware, dishware, and utensils - Dishwasher - Electric kettle - Microwave - Oven - Refrigerator - Spices - Stovetop - Toaster ### Bedrooms - 4 bedrooms - Bedsheets provided ### Bathroom - 3 bathrooms - Bathtub or shower - Hair dryer - Shower - Soap - Toilet paper - Towels provided ### Living spaces - Fireplace ### Entertainment - Games - Smart TV ### Outdoor areas - Barbecue grill - Garden ### Laundry - Laundry facilities - Washing machine ### Work spaces - Desk - Desk chair ### Comfort - Heating ### Pets - Pet friendly - Welcoming dogs only - 5 pets total ### Suitability/Accessibility - Smoking not allowed ### Services and conveniences - Iron/ironing board ### Location highlights - In a rural location - Near a hospital - Near the marina ### Things to do - Billiards/pool table - Water park - Birdwatching nearby - Fishing nearby - Golfing nearby - Hiking/biking trails nearby - Horseback riding nearby - Kayaking nearby - Motor boating nearby - Rafting nearby - Sailing nearby - Swimming nearby - Theme park nearby - Wildlife walks nearby - Windsurfing nearby ### Safety features - Carbon monoxide detector (host has indicated there is a carbon monoxide detector on the property) - Smoke detector (host has indicated there is a smoke detector on the property) ### General - At least 80% lighting from LEDs - Double-glazed windows - Garden ## Similar properties ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90900000/90895800/90895722/aa3791c4.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 18th Century Cottage, surrounded by nature, and close to beach Dartmouth - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-27&endDate=2025-12-28&selected=90895722&PinnedHotelID=90895722&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90860000/90856100/90856100/4dd66855.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### A remote 18th century cosy cottage yet just 10 mins to the beach Dartmouth - Kitchen - Washer - Dryer - Pet-friendly 10 Exceptional 1 review [](https://www.expedia.ca/Hotel-Search?startDate=2025-12-27&endDate=2025-12-28&selected=90856100&PinnedHotelID=90856100&HadPinnedHotel=true®ionId=-1&adults=2) ![Exterior](https://images.trvl-media.com/lodging/91000000/90900000/90895800/90895730/c8a45772.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=469&h=201&p=1&q=medium) ### 18th Century Streamside Cottage 10 min from the beach!
