“The cottage is in a pretty friendly village and the community shop is excellent.”

The pub is very dog friendly and the food is very good.There are lots of walks from the cottage without having to use the car. The bus service is good from the village to Sidmouth or Exmouth.

“The cottage was very well equipped and very comfortable.”

We loved the fact that we could walk to the village pub for drinks and delicious meals. Also there were river walks nearby and the village had a small local shop.

- Mrs Wottawa, July 2018
“Could not fault the cottage.”

It was exceptionally clean, comfortable, well equipped and situated in a very friendly village. Our only criticism is the 'extras' that Sykes added onto the original price quoted i.e. booking fee, charge for using credit card etc.

- Ms Harvey, June 2018
“A wonderful cottage which was a home from home.”

Beautifully appointed with everything we could possibly need. Superb.

- Mr Harvey, May 2018
“Robyn cottage is ideally located for walkers of all abilities.”

The scenery locally is very pleasant and varied, from the river Otter walks to the coastal path. There is a very useful community run shop in Otterton and local pub which welcomes dogs. The village is ideally located for visits to Budleigh Salterton and Sidmouth both of which are easily accessible by bus, car and for those more energetic by foot.

- Mr Fell, April 2018

Buses stop almost outside the door.

- Mr Glover, March 2018

“What a lovely little cottage this is.”

Comfy cosy, thoughtfully decorated, the most comfortable beds you could ever want!! Scones and clotted cream were waiting for us too! Clean and tidy, great WiFi, great TV etc.... Really easy to get to everywhere easily and quickly such as Otterton Mill is in the village, Sidmouth, Topsham, Beer beach, donkey sanctuary. Great info pack from the owner was helpful. Lovely garden, logs for the wood burner aplenty! A lovely housekeeper rang to check we were OK. Highly highly recommended. THANK YOU we will return

The property

Otterton is a pretty village in one of Devon's most beautiful coastal valleys between the stylish Regency town of Sidmouth and the Victorian resort of Budleigh Salterton.

On the approach to the village is Otterton Mill, a working water mill powered by the River Otter, around which has grown up a cafe serving delicious food, an exhibition gallery showing local arts and crafts and a venue where popular music nights take place.

In Otterton is Robin Cottage, a Grade II listed thatched property full of character and utterly charming.

Everything here has been carefully chosen, in the comfortable lounge there is a wood burning stove and the smart kitchen/diner which has a tiled floor and wooden table and chairs overlooks the garden.

A wooden spiral staircase leads to two very pretty bedrooms, a double with views over the garden towards the hills beyond and a second smaller bedroom at the front of the cottage.

The sheltered garden is enclosed and laid to lawn with a small patio area, table and chairs.

The beach at Ladram Bay is only half a mile away, here pale grey shingle contrasts against the deep, rich, red cliffs and you can join the South Devon Coast Path.

About the location

OTTERTON

Budleigh Salterton 3 miles; Sidmouth 3 miles.

Set back from the coast among the rolling green countryside and wooded valleys of beautiful East Devon, this pretty village with its collection of traditionally thatched roofed cottages is straight from a picture postcard. Offering a quieter but no less beautiful holiday destination than the rest of the county it’s the perfect place to relax and unwind, and is just 3 miles from the Regency coastal resort towns of both Budleigh Salterton and Sidmouth, and one mile from the SW Coastal Path as it meanders above the waves towards the World Heritage Site ‘Jurassic Coast’ beaches with their abundant fossils. Ladram Bay with its red-stone sea stacks is just one mile away. Inland, footpaths follow the banks of the River Otter where fox, badger and birdlife play while just down the road from the village is Bicton Park and Botanical Gardens, 60 acres of garden lovers’ paradise. For a really interesting hour or two, visit the last working flour mill on the river Otter - it’s in the village and the flour is superb. There’s much to do and see in this beautiful and unspoilt area but if you want to explore further afield, the open spaces and high tors of Dartmoor can be reached in under an hour while the Cathedral city of Exeter with its superb shopping centre, cinemas, clubs and restaurants is a mere 10 miles.
