  Wisteria cottage was the perfect cottage.

  Stepping through the door we were greeted by a lovely slice of homemade cake, a bunch of fresh flowers, a packet of biscuits, a box of chocolates, a pint of fresh milk in the fridge and not to forget a jar of treats for our 4 legged family member. The cottage was warm and cosy and equipped with everything you could ever need and more. Darton and Maxine were the perfect hosts. Maxine looked after the cottage to a very high standard and served us in the restaurant she was always very pleasant to talk to and polite. Darton was the Chef who cooked the perfect Sunday Roast, which we ate in the restaurant and a lovely 3 course evening meal which he kindly delivered to the cottage as the restaurant was closed for evening meals at this time of the year (March). The cottage location was a perfect base for exploring the area. We would definitely recommend this Cottage to anyone and we will definitely be back for another stay.

  Excellent stay and a lovely cottage.

  The owners have gone above and beyond and have thought of everything you could possibly need,very impressed. We were welcomed to some lovely home made cake which was a delicious treat after our long drive,a box of chocolates,biscuits and a bottle of wine, They even thought to put a pint of milk in the fridge which again was a very nice thoughtful touch. The cottage itself was cosy but felt bigger because of the openness of the design which gives it a nice airy and spacious feel. It’s a bit quirky and works well. For me it was a perfect holiday home. Even the wildlife was impressive,one morning a weasel ran across the lawn. My only slight criticism was that the bed felt slightly sunken in the middle,so not the perfect sleep but a new mattress would fix that. But overall we loved it ,very good stay and very well equipped ,I would happily book again next time I fancy a break in Devon.

  Lovely little cottage, fabulous welcome pack, had everything well thought out and spotlessly clean.

  The downside, unfortunately, is the access to the property. Had I known that it was up a steep slope with three lots of uneven steps, I would not have booked. From photograph it appears to just be up the first flight of steps (I'd be ok with that), but then there was a gravel slope, more steps (thank goodness for hand rail, the first step is quite challenging), then more loose gravel on another slope before final three steps. PHEW. I'm waiting for new knee and loose bricks and walking sticks do not mix! Could do with a new settee too. Peace and quiet was fabulous,, woken each morning by a song thrush and robin - lovely. I'd certainly recommend Wisteria Cottage but would suggest the access issue is more accurately documented and highlighted as not being suitable for anyone with mobility issues. Otherwise perfect ;)

  We really appreciated all the extra things in the cottage, especially in the kitchen, to make life a lot easier on arrival. Lots of thought from the owners into making settling in a very easy operation. The location was excellent for all beaches and fish and chip shop and Chinese take away. Also it was extremely quiet at night. The stairs were very steep, especially the top step, so a safety gate would be of benefit with young children as we had a 5 year old with us. Also the en suite shower and toilet made it difficult if the people in the twin bedroom needed the toilet in the middle of the night as otherwise they had to go downstairs. It would have been better to have had another shower in the downstairs toilet area. Otherwise we had a very enjoyable stay.

  The cottage is beautifully maintained and clean.

  Lovely welcome gifts were much appreciated. Very good kitchen, lots of hot water, comfortable bedroom and neat, clean bathroom. A very pretty, tranquil location, but be aware of a busy narrow road. The garden is not enclosed, so our dog remained on the lead. Also the steps up to cottage, I would say, are more than a few! Quite a job pulling suitcase up then down! The sitting area is nicely furnished with a good TV and radio, unfortunately, the seating is rather uncomfortable. I feel that in the property description on line, it should be mentioned that when the Castle closes in November, the Cafe closes too, so no catering, cream teas etc for cottage occupants, that was a disappointment!
