Overview
Sleeping four people over two bedrooms, this semi detached cottage in Westleigh has a welcoming atmosphere and is just a mile and a half from a pretty sandy beach. Two bedrooms: 1 x double, 1 x twin (zip & link, can be made up as a king-size double by prior arrangement). Shower room with shower, basin & WC. Kitchen with range cooker and dining area. Sitting room with woodburner in stone fireplace.
Positioned in the heart of the village of Westleigh, this semi detached stone cottage is a wonderfully welcoming example of English country accommodation with style and comfort. The bedrooms are attractive and the woodburner makes the sitting room a wonderful room to curl up in after an afternoon in the garden with village views, taking a drink in the local pub just a moments stroll, or enjoying the sandy beach at Instow and the amenities of Bideford and Barnstaple. Devon, with its quiet country lanes, patchwork of lush green fields and sleepy villages is not to be missed. Stately home lovers will be spoiled and why not finish with a scrumptious Devonshire cream tea?

Reviews
"On arrival the tea and Scones sat on the table, we was greeted by the owner who lives next door, the kitchen was great with a modern looking old fashion stove that was simply fantastic, the sitting room was nice with a old fashion log fire, next to the kitchen was a down stairs toilet and a large shower and separate bath, the two bedrooms where large and the beds very comfortable, the small upstairs toilet was very small and not used. Local super markets about a mile away, and the location was central to may attractions. Car parking was a little tight as the village has narrow roads."
"fabulous cottage, great base for seeing devon and cornwall, lovely friendly welcome with scones and homemade jam, would go again anytime"
"The warmest of welcomes from the owner who made us feel at home immediately. The cottage contains everything and more for a perfect break. Comfortable bed and extremely well equipped kitchen and bathroom. A log burner in the lounge made for a very cosy end to each day. Best of all was the fact that pub was two minutes walk away, where a wide selection of real ales was available and the food is of a high standard and you are welcomed as a villager not an outsider visiting."
"The cottage was very clean and comfortable, felt like home from home. Incredibly quite location and very friendly villagers. Perfect location for Rosemoor, Dartington glass and a visit to Hartland abbey Bay, superb. Great walks along the Tarka Trail. Whatever you are interested in, this is a perfect spot."

"We wanted a traditional cottage (not a bungalow masquerading) in a real village, and we got it. Fantastic. Scones with Devonshire clotted cream on arrival. We have two young ones (2 & 6) so the location was perfect. The 'amazing' Big Sheep is just around the corner. A great bike ride along the 'Otter Trail', great beaches nearby and the beautiful Woolacoombe beach just up the road (take the hill road and drop down through the dunes to escape the masses). Clovelly is nearby too and still truly beautiful."
"A very comfortable cottage with lots of extra facilities which were very welcome when the weather was not so good.The welcome was warm and everything was exceptionally well prepared including a plate of scones.The cottage was in a good location to allow visits to the sights of both Devon and Cornwall.A lovely time was had by all."
