  • "A beautiful cottage , quality furnishing and in taste with the property ."

    We had an amazing 7 day stay . Plenty to see and do , and the Journeys End pub next door to have a relaxing drink at the end of a day , but book before hand as they are very popular, the food is out standing !! We have nothing to complain about , parking was fine just up the road a 5 min walk , the exercise did me good. Thank you for a peaceful holiday , it was hard to leave .

    Thank you for your feedback So glad you enjoyed your stay Property Owner

  • "It was lovely, well equipped and good quality, we struggled with the stairs a bit as we are older and live in a bungalow!"

    The meals we had in The Journeys End were delicious.

    Thank you for your Feedback, it is much appreciated. Glad you enjoyed your stay. Hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

  • "No car parking space, garden and sitting area over grown and lots of weeds so we couldn’t sit outside, outside furniture was dirty."

    We wasn’t told that the pub next door beer garden was directly our view from our sitting room so we had to keep windows and curtains closed.

    Many thanks for taking the time to leave your feedback. The Cottage in not advertised with a designated parking space. We are sorry you felt the garden was over grown, this is a cottage garden and although well kept, it is in keeping with its rural setting, the seating is also cleaned down each week, however, we will of course pass these comments to the owner. We were surprised to read that the pub garden looks into the sitting room as the cottage is situated 3ft lower than the garden and can only be seen out of the small corner window. We do hope you enjoyed your holiday despite the matters you have raised and enjoyed all the area has to offer. Property Owner

    Thank you for your Feedback. So pleased you enjoyed your stay. I hope to welcome you back in the future. Property Owner

  • "Lovely cottage with lots of character, lovely comfortable beds, kitchen had everything we needed, in a great location for coastal path."

    We loved the unspoilt cove just a short walk away. The pub next door had great charm however was fully booked all week for food so only able to have a drink. A little confusing with having supplies in fridge as we used some milk then read in a folder it was not to use. We replaced it but perhaps a note on the shelf would be better as we didn't read folder until next day. Then we worried if the lemon drizzle cake was for us, it was delicious! Thank you. The designated parking was not available, maybe because of pub being busy. Overall we had a lovely stay and would return, Thank you.

    Thank you for your Feedback. So glad you had a lovely stay. Your suggestion of a note on the Fridge shelf is a really good idea and will stop any further "Fridge Confusion", so thank you for that. Hope to welcome you back in the future. Thank you. Property Owner

The property

Challaborough 1 mile.

Perched in the beautiful village of Ringmore Devon, with its stunning national trust beach, Ayrmer Cove , is this enchanting thatched cottage, 4 Cumberland Cottages.

A great cottage for couples or a family of four, thanks to its convenient location in the South Devon AONB and its proximity to the beach and located adjacent to the renowned Journey's End.

Enjoy your morning coffee in the rear enclosed courtyard.

You'll feel right at home in the inviting snug, which has a desk and a sofa where you can read or catch up with work.

After a day of exploring, relax in the sitting room with its exposed beams and stonework, complete with comfortable seating, a woodburner, and a TV/DVD.

Proceed through the living room to the well-equipped kitchen/dining area, where you can prepare delicious meals to be enjoyed at the dining table for four over a bottle of wine.

Lastly, the ground floor is rounded out by a contemporary bathroom with a overhead shower.

Head up to the first floor, where you'll find two beautifully presented king-size bedrooms perfect for catching up on sleep.

Just paces away from your cottage, you’ll find the warm and inviting Journey's End Inn, where you can spoil your loved ones with a delicious meal and local ales.

The town of Challaborough offers a wider variety of services, including a supermarket, a restaurant, The WaterFront Bar & Restaurant, and access to the famous South West Coast Path, which can be used to reach Ayrmer Cove via a pleasant hike.

The next stop is the seaside town of Bigbury-on-Sea, home to the iconic Burgh Island and the Pilchard Inn, at the beautiful beach.

Those who wish to continue their excursion to Salcombe will find a Gin Distillery, and plenty of eateries boasting local fayre.

You'll find all of this and more at 4 Cumberland Cottages.

About the location

RINGMORE

Bigbury-on-Sea 3 miles; Kingsbridge 7 miles; Salcombe 11 miles; Plymouth 15.5 miles.

Ringmore is a small village in Devon, in the South Devon AONB, one mile from the secluded beach and stunning cliffs of Bigbury Bay.
The Saxon church of All Hallows stands majestically over this quintessentially English village. Ringmore is a conservation village with thatched cottages, a peaceful rural pace of life & an award winning pub, the Journey's End Inn serving cask ales, local produce and a friendly welcome. A comprehensively stocked shop and Post Office is located in St Anne's Chapel, a short drive away and they are happy to deliver. Three different paths lead down to Ayrmer Cove from the village, and connect with the South West Coast Path. Footpaths lead to Challaborough Bay and to the golden sandy beaches of Bigbury-on-Sea, from which Burgh Island is reached by the famous Sea Tractor. Bigbury-on-Sea beach is ideal for family holidays. Everyone is sure to marvel at the huge expanse of sand, enjoy exploring the rock pools, or sample the varied watersports available to the more active visitors. If you want to try something different from the body boarding or surfing, then windsurfing and kite-surfing are gaining popularity here, with hire facilities located right on the beach. For peace of mind, there are lifeguards present at Bigbury-on-Sea’s Blue Flag beach from May to September, and a fabulous café specialising in selling organic and local food; whose surf ‘n’ turf is one of the best in the area. A few miles from Ringmore are plenty of delightful South Hams villages, coastal beauty spots and the traditional English market town of Kingbridge on the estuary.
