Short Breaks


Most of the time our holiday properties book out for the Full week (7 nights), however there are times during some Off Peak periods or last minute where Short Breaks may be arranged with certain properties. They can be either 3, 4, 5 or 6 nights and are priced accordingly. Please remember that all short break enquiries have to be checked prior to booking, simply find your perfect cottage, get in touch and we will help finalise your enquiry either email or phone our Reservation Team.


Our offices are open every day.

About the property

LOVELY COTTAGE WITH DELIGHTFUL COUNTRYSIDE VIEWS, SLEEPS 2 + 2. SHORT BREAKS AVAILABLE, PLEASE ENQUIRE

A friendly welcome awaits you at this semi-detached traditional country cottage, nestling in the delightful Devon countryside. There are far reaching views over open fields and the cottage's thick walls retain warmth for cosy winter visits and cool for summer days. The quiet immediate location is a haven for birds including birds of prey and many small garden varieties. Wildlife is abundant here and in the National Trust Ashclyst Forest which this cottage overlooks. This makes the area ideal for energetic walkers or a quiet ramble along the forest paths and around Broadclyst village. Home to a National Poultry Show winning flock of White Wyandotte chickens, so there is interest nearby and further afield. The East Devon beaches are a short drive away with their sheltered coves, sandy and pebble beaches, coastal walking or a stroll along the prom' at Sidmouth. The Jurassic Coast provides plenty of fossil hunting and the National Trust at nearby Killerton House and Bicton Gardens make a great day out. The nearby town of Exeter has facilities to suit all tastes with its ancient Cathedral, remaining Roman wall and modern shopping centre. The quay area is particularly interesting for a stroll and lunch or simply sitting beside the River Exe watching the world go by.
