Hansel Cottage

Hansel Cottage South Devon Holiday Cottage sleeping 8, perfect for dog lovers and multi-generational groups. A short drive to Dartmouth, Salcombe and award winning beaches

Two miles from the coast in a tranquil valley with a woodland fenced garden. Hansel Cottage is the perfect self catering option for large families and groups of friends to relax in rural tranquillity while still being within a few minutes drive of the nearest beach. Hansel is well located to explore all that South Devon has to offer. Mid way between the sailing meccas of Dartmouth and Salcombe, 15

minutes from the ‘Blue Flag’ Blackpool Sands beach and within 30 minutes drive of many sandy beaches, close to the South West Coast path and within an easy drive of Dartmoor, numerous children’s attractions and outdoor activities, there is something for everyone nearby. Nearby Slapton and Strete have three well regarded pubs between them. Slightly further afield Torcross, Beesands, Stokenham Kingsbridge and Dartmouth have numerous highly recommended pubs and restaurants to suit all age groups and budgets. The cottage has recently been renovated in a modern country style. It has four bedrooms and three bathrooms. There is plenty of space for larger family or friend groups - sleeping eight people - with three main reception rooms and a generous farmhouse style kitchen. The former pigsty now provides a utility room with wetsuit drying area and a space for table tennis. There is also a pool table in the the large sitting room. Outside there is a lovely 3/4 acre garden with magnificent views over the valley. Multiple well behaved dogs are welcome and the garden is fully fenced. We prefer dogs not to go into the bedrooms or on the furniture but if they are used to this at home we request that you bring your own clean throws to protect our furniture and linen.

When you go away with either family or friends do you worry it might be a bit much for you? Some people just need that little bit of time out to decompress 🥰⁣

Well our cottage has a lovely snug where you can shut the door curl up on the sofa and read a book, in the colder months you can use the wood burner for an even cosier room 📚⁣

Beautiful Bantham Beach is a short drive from us and looks across to Burgh Island 🏖️⁣

There is so much at Bantham👇🏻⁣

From 1 May – 30 September, dogs aren’t allowed on the main beach…there is a designated dog-friendly beach which is just a scenic stroll away. Take a wander across the Ham, then follow the steps down to the beautiful river beach 🐕⁣

Also there: RNLI Lifeguards South Devon, Discovery Surf School, Gastrobus x Bosko Bus Beach Food, Sloop Inn Bantham, Outside Devon all are fantastic 😎⁣

As we posted about the Slapton Line Walk we thought we’d share the fantastic turnout, it’s believed around 500 people attended 👏🏻⁣

BBC, ITV and drone pilots were in attendance too 😊⁣


Start Bay Inn

Thank you so much to everyone who came to the walk this morning. It crossed my mind that due to the glorious weather people may decide to have a beach day instead! As you can see there was an absolutely fantastic turnout, many locals and also people on holiday, showing how much this area means to them 🤩⁣

It was hot with a gorgeous sea breeze 🥵⁣
