Diana's Cottage, Braunton, sleeps 5

Diana's Cottage felt like home!

From the moment we arrived, Diana's Cottage felt like home! It was warm and welcoming mainly due to the fabulous AGA in the kitchen, and the lovely scones and fresh flowers left by our hosts What a lovely touch! The Kitchen is well equipped and includes a regular cooker but we enjoyed cooking on the AGA (first time for everything) even if we did make the odd mistake, this is where we all congregated for a drink or to plan what we were going to do the next day. Stretching out like cats in front of that AGA. The sitting room was very comfortable with glorious views over the garden and a glimpse of the valley. The bedrooms were equally comfortable. Crisp white linen and comfortable beds with ample storage. We were lucky enough to have good weather and spend most of our time on the beach (Saunton Sands roughly 2 miles away) so it was great to return to the large family bathroom with a super hot power shower and fluffy white towels! The secret garden is accessed via the gate marked 'Diana's secret Garden' Enclosed mainly by a high hedge with a high wall to the front. A delightful outside space with beautiful views over the stunning countryside and safe so children can run free. Equipped with BBQ and garden furniture the perfect place to enjoy a drink or a meal. We all enjoyed our stay at Diana's cottage very much and wished we'd booked for longer. One thing for sure we are all agreed we're definitely going back!

Cottage Overview

Diana's Cottage, the former dairy is set on a private estate in the popular village of Braunton in North Devon. This recently renovated 16th century cottage oozes charm and character throughout, but has been thoughtfully furnished to offer couples and small families high quality and comfortable accommodation in a wonderful rural setting.

Inside the cottage, a bright and spacious living room with a high vaulted ceiling features two large comfy sofas, TV, and DVD player. A large kitchen is equipped with everything needed for a self-catering holiday and includes an electric Aga, electric oven with hob, washer/dryer, microwave, fridge as well as a large round dining table with enough seating for 5 guests.

A staircase from the kitchen leads up to the first floor, where guests can find the two bedrooms and a family bathroom. There is large well-presented master bedroom with a king-sized bed, as well as a spacious second bedroom with three full size single beds. The bathroom is fitted with a bath and shower overhead and a wash basin. There is a separate cloakroom with a WC.
