    “Really amazing little cottage, and the lovely couple who own it really went above and beyond with storm Darragh trying to get in the way!”

    Turns out it's even more of a gorgeous cottage by fire light and candles! Highly recommend and I'm sure we'll be back!

The property

Nestled on the remarkable grounds of the owners home, on the outskirts of the quaint town of Otter St Mary, rests this traditional thatched annexe, The Hideaway.

Enveloped in picturesque countryside, The Hideaway offers a romantic retreat for couples looking to explore the delights of the beautiful county of Devon.

You'll be delighted by the rustic character of the interior as you step over the threshold and into the charming living/dining room, beautifully-appointed with original beams and exposed wood paneling, providing a snug space to nestle into an armchair in front of the warming woodburning stove to enjoy a moment of peace after an adventure-filled day.

Continuing through the property, enter into the pint-sized kitchen, featuring a charming country-style décor and housing all of the essential amenities required to rustle up a romantic meal for two to enjoy gathered around the intimate dining table.

End each day in style and unwind with a seat in the tranquil garden, enveloped in the peaceful greenery as you soak in the captivating views across the duck pond to the elegant vineyard beyond, toasting a glass of fizz with your significant other to an unforgettable holiday.

When sleep calls, climb the staircase and enter into the delightful double bedroom, thoughtfully laid out with stained wood flooring and rustic wood furnishings, maintaining the property's traditional character and offering a calming setting to rest your head.

In the morning, prepare for a new day with an invigorating rinse in the spacious walk-in shower before heading out to explore your surroundings.

Take a well deserved break from doing the cooking and head into the heart of Ottery St Mary where you'll find a plethora of eateries to choose from, including traditional country pubs, quaint tea rooms and a delicious takeaway, where you can enjoy a portion of fish and chips as you take a leisurely stroll along the banks of the scenic River Otter.

Nestled on the beautiful Jurassic Coast is the seaside town of Sidmouth, home to a marvellous stretch of golden sand, where thrill-seekers can tackle the waves with a lesson in paddleboarding, or if you'd prefer to stay on land, discover the fascinating local history on display at Sidmouth Museum or follow the South West Coast Path through the grassland to the top of Peak Hill, where you'll be lost for words by the exceptional panoramic views of the water offered from the summit.

Further afield is the vibrant University city of Exeter, where you'll be spoilt for choice with the exciting range of attractions on offer, including the history of moving image on display at Bill Douglas Cinema Museum, or partake in a guided tour through the medieval underground passageways that used to transport water under the city, and if you time it right, you might even catch Devon's Premiership rugby team, the Exeter Chiefs, play at Sandy Park.

Where you're looking to discover the dramatic coastline, or the picturesque countryside, The Hideaway offers an idyllic base for your next adventure.

Note: This property has a Good Housekeeping bond of £100.
