The chocolate box frontage of this stunning cottage leads into a fresh and contemporary interior reflecting coast and country. Natural light bathes the living space with floor-to-ceiling window walls on two sides, with views of the garden and the trees beyond. Four generous bedrooms (three en suite) make for a refreshing sleep. The tended lawns are zoned with wildlife havens, with meadow flowers, a pond, and a stream. The large patio has plenty of seating for relaxing and dining.

Please note: Children must never be left unsupervised when outside. There is a pond and a stream, which could pose a safety hazard. There's also wildlife in the garden, around which care must always be taken.

Accommodation

Contemporary, warm, and styled in muted earthy tones and bright touches, when you enter the home, you are immediately greeted by a real feel of style with rough timber-clad walls adorned with unique local artefacts. This cottage is truly special, with a feeling of true class and depth of character.

The hallway takes you to the living/snug room area, elegantly decorated with navy blue wooden panelling, a wood-burning stove, large comfy sofas, a smart TV and views over the front garden. A great room to relax, read a book, or for children to huddle together to watch a film or play games.

Further down the hallway is the open-plan area with an adjoining designer-style cloakroom WC and a large separate utility room with a washing machine.

The open-plan living space and kitchen are stylishly laid out - two plush sofas let you soak up the garden views with floor-to-ceiling French windows on two sides.

The kitchen island makes meal preparation a social occasion and is well-equipped for every mealtime. Start the morning with Nespresso coffee at the breakfast bar, or gather around the solid-wood dining table. The range cooker has induction hob plates, grills and regular oven functions. There is also a dishwasher.

Upstairs, there are four comfortable bedrooms:

Immediately to the left at the top of the stairs is the front bedroom with a kingsize cast-iron bed with an en suite shower room and views over the front garden and rolling hills beyond.

Further along the landing, up a couple of steps to the left, is another bedroom with two single beds that can be made into a super-king on request, as well as a terrace with glass balustrade to enjoy broad views over the garden. This bedroom is adjacent to the family bathroom which has a separate bath and shower.

Further along the landing, to the rear of the house, is the corner master bedroom with kingsize bed and en suite shower room. This bedroom also benefits from large sliding patio windows and a balcony with glass balustrade from which there are extensive views of the garden and the hills beyond. A bistro table and chairs mean you can relax to enjoy the morning or evening sun.

Head upstairs again to the cosy fourth bedroom with a small double bed and an en suite bathroom with an overhead shower. This room is best suited for two young children or a young adult.

Garden

The spacious garden has a broad lawn and is also a wildlife haven, stretching into the woods and hills beyond. A pond, a stream and wild zones are left to nature (please see the notice above). Thoughtful sculptures add further character to this broad, open space.

A large terrace patio has generous seating to sit back and view the garden below. Dine in the dappled sunlight under the wood pergola, the refectory table big enough for all to gather around.

Parking

There is ample parking on the driveway - enough for 5 to 6 cars.

Nearby

You're a short drive from two great (award-winning) waterside pubs: The Maltsters Arms and The Watermans Arms in Tuckenhay - ideal for a hearty meal after a country walk. Historic Totnes is a 20-minute drive,


Blackpool Sands with its award winning beach, sauna and restuarant are short drive away. Photos Claire Gillo

    An excellent place to stay with an extended family group. Warm and cosy although spacious.The cottage has such a sociable living space with lovely views of the garden, and separate lounge worked well for the children to have tv and games. We loved the art work and thoughtful design touches throughout the house and garden.

    What a location views absolutely beautiful. Stayed as a family of 8 plus 2yr old Granddaughter. The house has so much space, so practical the furnishings and decor so lovely. Kitchen amazing to cook in everything and more provided. While the chef’s cooking, my sons’s in our case excellent meals boys the rest of the family chilled and bumbled around in this fantastic space so much room, The table sat all of us looking out to the view of the beautiful garden and pond. We played lots of games around the table, Brill utility for the dogs, walking boots and coats. Lounge was big and cosy we really didn’t use it as the family room, kitchen was so adequate for us. Bedrooms again so lovely, furnished practically and comfy along with great en-suites, showers etc. The owners are lovely people, greeted us on arrival and explained everything to us. Then left us to get on with it, we knew they were there if we needed anything so helpful and hospitable. Walks all round on door step. Pubs and good restaurants all around. I cannot fault this house it’s excellent, clean, spacious, beautifully maintained, decorated, everything you need and more provided lots of quirky decorations. So many happy family memories made here. Thank you.

    Lovely, roomy cottage with beautiful garden. Very clean and comfortable overall, and plenty of space for everyone to relax in. We were a party of 2 families, 4 adults, 4 children and a dog. The weather wasn't great for most of the holiday so unfortunately, we didn't get to make use of the outdoor seating area, but we did use the barbecue and there's more than enough space in the kitchen for cooking for 8. I only marked a 4 for comfort instead of 5 because most of the the beds were a bit soft for everyone, but that's just personal preference. The friendly owners live next door and were on hand if we needed them. Dittisham is lovely and beautiful Dartmouth and Totnes are nearby so it's a great place to be based. Would definitely go back there again!

    Lovely property for a family break with a warm welcome from Bob & Georgia. Pretty much all that we needed was at hand and the garden provided a wonderful place to relax

    A great house with lots of communal living space . The house is modern but still cosy with an open plan kitchen living room with huge sliding windows that open on to a terrace with an eating area, seating and a barbecue. The garden is large and informal garden with a natural pond and stream - so children and perhaps inebriated adults need supervision! There is a sitting room with a wood burner and a large basket of logs provided but the open plan living area is hard to beat, especially during the spring and summer. The bed rooms are very comfortable and there are plenty of bath/shower rooms. The hosts are nearby if you need them and are friendly and helpful. There are plenty of beautiful walks for humans and dogs and nearby hostelries for refreshments.

    Had the most amazing mini break in this wonderful home which is in a stunning location. Fabulous space for a family get together, cannot recommend highly enough. The owners were very welcoming and helpful. Can't wait to book a return visit.
