Coastguard Cottage Reviews

Georgina
This is the best cottage weâ??ve ever visited. Beautiful remote position, incredibly comfortable beds, sofa and heating. A better equipped kitchen than weâ??ve ever had in a holiday let. Loved it!
Neil
Great location for a North Devon holiday
Lindsay
This traditional cottage is set in a stunning location, just 10-15 mins walk to Hartland Quay, where the sunsets are amazing. The garden provides an exciting space for anyone with dogs, and is a peaceful haven of an evening, especially with the peel of bells from the adjacent, St Nectans church. Being on the North Devon/North Cornwall border, it is well positioned for touring both counties. A car is an essential.
Phillip
Great location, and a cute cottage.
Felicity
Really nice spacious cottage with a lovely garden. Had everything we needed for our stay and all was as described. Lovely location being situated next to gorgeous coastline at Hartland Quay. Beautiful walks you can access from the cottage and plenty of dog friendly beaches to visit just a short drive. We all loved our stay here, perfect holiday accommodation and destination.
Sally
A lovely cottage, our 2nd visit as we enjoyed our stay so much. 3rd visit already in planning. All the basics you need plus comfortable beds & sofas.
Clare
A very comfortable cottage in a quiet location only 15 mins walk from a stunning section of the coast path. Walks from the door and the Wreckers Bar at Hartland Quay open for food and drink all day and evening enabling us to enjoy the beauty of the location. If you have dogs, this is ideal.
David
Well equiped and comfortable cottage well situated for walks around the Hartland Peninsula west coast.
