Devon self catering holiday cottages

Downe’s deluxe holiday cottages provide the perfect setting for a romantic
break, a weekend break, a short break or a longer holiday. Truly some of the
West Country’s loveliest cottages they offer wonderful holidays in the South
West whatever the weather and whatever the time of year.
Holiday Cottages Magazine said “Downe Cottages have everything for a
comfortable & luxurious holiday” and we agree! Downe Holiday Cottages provide a
unique combination of the luxury hotel and the privacy and freedom of a
self-catering break.
Downe Holiday Cottages are situated within the glorious setting of
the Hartland Peninsula in North Devon and look out over the Atlantic.
Downe has eight luxury self catering holiday cottages:
- Wisteria Cottage (sleeps six, in three bedrooms)

(sleep two, in one bedroom)
There are over seven acres of grounds including a two acre meadow and
a play area for young children.
We regret that pets and smoking are not allowed.
A high standard of fitting and comfort is a feature of all the cottages,
including:
- Log burners or cast iron living flame stoves
- Exposed timber beams
- Fully equipped modern kitchen
- Spacious living and dining areas with locally made reclaimed pine
furniture
- Digital colour television, DVD player
- Every bedroom is en-suite

Whether you’re on a romantic short break for two or a week’s holiday with the
family, you can find out about the best places to visit in the surrounding
area.
From restaurants to coastal walks and from gardens to activity centres, our
guides will help you make the most of your time at Downe.
If you want a night in but without the cooking, our Menu offers a range of
dishes delivered to your cottages which can be enjoyed as two or three course
dinners or as single dishes.
We also provide English and Continental Breakfast Baskets. All the dishes
provided are to a lovely standard.
Downe House is a listed farmhouse dating back to the 15th century. It is
situated on the tip of the Hartland Peninsula in a designated area of
outstanding natural beauty. It has glorious sea views and looks north to Lundy
Island and west over the Atlantic.
The Holiday Cottages set in the midst of rolling farmland that slopes gently
to the coast. Our nearest neighbours are half a mile away, and all around are
glorious sea views. To the south west lies Hartland Abbey, and to the north west
lies Blegberry, a fortified farm dating from the 1600s. In the distance the
stone tower of St Nectan’s Church rises above the picturesque village of Stoke.
The sea, Berry Cove and the North Devon Coastal Path are a mile’s walk away
along a quiet single-track road and a small footpath. The unspoilt village of
Hartland is a mile away either by road or by footpaths that take you along the
side of a small river through the picturesque vale. The historic village of
Clovelly is six miles away.
The immediate area is ideal for walkers and cyclists, with a maze of
footpaths and a network of single-track lanes on the doorstep. The cliff-top
walks along the dramatic coastline are simply stunning and lead you to secluded
coves.
