Fishermen's Cottage Reviews

Andrew
We had an amazing time at Fishermans Cottage! The cottage was even more beautiful in person than in the photos, with meticulous attention to detail that showcased the fishermans theme. It was spotlessly clean, wellequipped, and provided everything we needed for a relaxing week away. We were thrilled to find electric chargers onsite, including a fast 21kw charger and an additional 7kw charger, which made charging our electric car a breeze. The location was idealpeaceful and quiet, nestled amidst beautiful grounds, yet conveniently close to both the north and south coast beaches. There were numerous scenic walks nearby, perfect for our dog. We also appreciated the competitive pricing compared to other cottages in the area. The hosts were incredibly friendly and helpful, going above and beyond to ensure our stay was enjoyable. We highly recommend this cottage to anyone seeking a peaceful getaway in the countryside.

This is a hidden gem our idea of a perfect holiday! Alfie the estate manager is a bubbly and kind person and made us so welcome! Thankyou for letting us share your piece of tranquility. Will be going back in the fishing season. The cottage has so much attention to detail.
Michael
We loved the accommodation which was beautifully decorated and equipped. All you could want in a 5 star property. Our teenagers particularly enjoyed great tv, wifi, hot tub while we also loved the location and private field and river for a very happy dog. Location is bit isolated from towns or shops, but that worked well for us. Still only 45 minutes drive to Devon's great beaches. Cost more than we would normally pay for a week in a cottage, but we thought it was definitely worth it, especially if you think you deserve a treat! We are already planning a second stay.
