Gorgeous cottage in a lovely location - had everything we needed inside and out. Spotless and beautifully decorated, everything catered for. Excellent communication from hosts who accommodated some last minute requirements. Would recommend and will revist
We had a brilliant 3 night stay at this property which is in a lovely setting just outside Axminster. The layout is perfect with comfortable & quality furnishings throughout. The kitchen is well equipped too with dishwasher & washing machine! Also outside there is a lovely terrace area with BBQ & small garden with lovely views. Highly recommend.
Loved the little cottage. Felt very peaceful and cosy. Great location to explore the coast and dog friendly. Equipped with everything you need. Celebrated New Year here with the family. Would love to come back in the spring/summer to enjoy the garden which had lovely country views.
Excellent cottage in a great location for Lyme Regis
We went to the local beaches- the cottage was a great base. It is very quiet, clean and comfortable. We will be back the next time we want to visit south Devon/Dorset.
Nice, comfortable and very quiet cottage, clean and well equipped. For our family it was ideal as a base for trips to Lyme Regis, or some nice hikes in the surrounding area. A few (car) min outside the village, beautifully located. Small downside is the limited space for storage.
Myself and my daughter had our (2nd) stay at this lovely little cottage. We love the area as it is near old friends from Sussex who moved to Devon. The cottage is perfect; clean, cosy and in a quiet position but with good local amenities. Ideal. Love it here x
The cottage was easy to find and straightforward to get to even though access was via a single track road.
On arrival, checkin was easy and the instructions from the hosts clear and easy to follow. The cottage had many of the essentials and was a comfortable stay. The stairs were steep and some of the doorways were low, but we expected at a country cottage.
For us, it was a good base to explore the surrounding area for a few days.
2 night stay. Comfortable cottage. Only disappointment was there was no tea or coffee left out, although milk and biscuits left for us. We are looking to come back in the spring.
We enjoyed our two nights at this cottage, there was plenty of information provided beforehand and on site by the manager. The venue was warm, clean and included all linens, even little extras like milk and shower gel! The location was amazingly picturesque, but very hilly and remote, which worked for us as a family, but could cause access problems for some.
We stayed for 2 nights in October half term. The place was plenty big enough for a family of 4 and a dog. It was cosy and warm and we were grateful for comfy beds and good bedding. The enclosed garden was great for the dog and the whole stay was really easy.
We only wished that we could have stayed for longer.
Rosemount Cottage was perfectly located for our needs (visiting friends and attending a wedding). It was very comfortable and had everything we could wish for. Attractively decorated, ample parking and very quiet too. We had a superb stay, thank you.
Spent a lovely couple of days in this cute cottage while visiting my sister. Explored the lovely seaside towns - Lyme Regis was a favourite! Cottage was in a peaceful location and had all the amenities you would need.
Lovely place. Not far from some nice walks and the coast. Definitely recommend.
One small point but maybe a good one for all this heat, the top freezer box needs defrosting.
