“What a beautiful place to stay!”

The attention to detail was very impressive, it is clearly managed with great care by the owners, was spotlessly clean, and wanted for nothing in terms of equipment. We are Sykes cottage owners ourselves, so we recognise the effort that goes into welcoming holidaymakers. Kenton is a delightful village, with locals stopping to chat. Stunning Church opposite too! How refreshing to have a car park so close, which made the loading/unloading very easy. No visitors could fail to be impressed with ...

Our Sons Birthday fell during this stay, so couldn’t have wished for a better setting to celebrate!

“We had a wonderful time at the beautiful Primrose Cottage.”

But were a bit disappointed the only local pub has been closed since March after being sold under auction, therefore our dining options were limited (the listing states a pub next door so this needs removed!). We had to buy groceries to eat more meals at the cottage but the fridge is on the small side for this so we had to rely on the cool bag we brought with us. Everything else was perfect. Some gorgeous cycle routes nearby & fabulous walks in Dartmoor. We also watched the transformation of the cottage on Homes Under the Hammer - amazing! So beautiful & tastefully done. Thank you to our hosts for a great week.

“The cottage was lovely.”

Lots of character and very clean. It was very well equipped, including items for a baby or toddler (highchair/ travel cot available/ roll out stairgates already set up upstairs and downstairs). The owners have also clearly thought about how they are managing safety with Covid-19. There is a garden (be aware this is not directly attached to the property), and a very small outside patio space between the living room and kitchen which is quite nice to sit at. The house is situated in a small, quiet village ten minutes drive from Dawlish/Dawlish Warren etc, and a good base for days out. Although no front drive parking, we never had any issue getting a space on the road next to the house, and there is a free village car park right next to the place anyway. Wi-Fi could be a bit patchy at one end of the house, but not really a problem for us. Those with mobility issues may wish to consider that there are a couple of steepish steps between the living area and kitchen. We stayed here with our toddler, and it worked really well for us. We would happily return.

“A very comfortable cottage with all mod cons in convenient and lovely village centre location.”

Felt very much like our 'second home' rather than a holiday let. Hope to return again - stayed July 2017
